Its been a long marriage so that there really is no traditional gift. The modern gift for this year though is travel which is not a problem in itself. The problem is my wife booked her travel without me. The big question is, should I change the locks while she's gone?

Its been a few weeks since i started having this fantasy. I guess it's been buried deep down until I felt confortable enough with someone to tell them. Any way we we're kinda just starting to mess around and in a flirty manor she said you want me to go find someone else just playfully to tease me. This time hiverever I decided i was going to say nothing and see what she says. She waits for me to say something and finnaly looks a at me and asks; is that what you want? I just looked back and said maybe.... She started to kinda tease and play with the idea a little and we used it for some great sex! Afterwards she brought it up again and said that she wouldnt feel comfortable doing that with anyone else cause she loves me and i explain that's exactly why it's such a turn on. Then out of nowhere she casually throws in a compromise that shocked me, she said she would like to go to a bar and flirt with guys for me maybe kisssing and hand play bit thats as far as she would be comfortable going. My jaw dropped, not only was she not judging me or totally denying me but she was totally willing to try something outside her comfort zone! I an Very excited to try this, looking for any tips you all might have. Thanks! Wife is 52 and i am 27 btw. Have a great day guys!

I feel hurt and like I am not enough for him. He has been divorced for 3years and says he doesn t know if he will do it again. I have never been married or engaged and I have always had that dream. He says he loves me and does things to say he does but the thought of never having that dream really hurts.

I've noticed a change in recent days from my gentle spirited husband. In the past he always thanked me for working hard at keeping the house in order and taking care of our pets. He is covering for his boss who is on vacation. He is in upper management and I think the added stress is getting to him. I snapped this morning back at him and told him off. We hardly ever fight or be angry at each other. He said I needed to work harder on the house. I let him have it and don't like him treating me like a maid. I'm his wife, not his property and definitely not a maid. Respect is the #1 key to a good marriage. We've been married a long time. Should I ask him to apologize for his abrupt attitude? Thanks.

Theres a group chat where all students including him are in where everyone exchanged happy new year wishes ... he did as well( jewish new years was yesterday) then i get a personal message from him 2 hours later wishing me the best with my studies, health.... etc. Am i reading too much into this? Or is this normal?

I feel lost. I lost a friend, a partner, a whole person. I am alone now. He isn't coming back. I lost him to drugs. I'm not trying to be selfish. My kids lost their dad. It hurts my heart. Anyone go through this ?

So my mom is in the process of getting a divorce from my narcissist father who has caused emotional damage to our family throughout the years. The divorce is not completely final but my mom seems to think it is. I did something any daughter would do and SNOOPED around because she was acting weird and her "gym" times seemed to be extending. Came to the conclusion that she's been fooling around with a 27-28 year old, sending pics, messages, and meeting up. Now I completely understand that she's been emotionally/physically alone for a very long time because of how my dad was. So I understand how she's probably feeling right now. What's bothering me is if this actually gets serious. She seems to have feelings for him but by their messages he doesn't seem to be as engaged as her and she obviously doesn't see that right now. My biggest fear is her actually considering a REAL future with this guy. I've never had a real father figure in my life and I would like to. My dream is for my mom to eventually marry a wonderful man that can finally be the father our family has never had. And I can't have my step dad be a couple years older than me. Maybe I'm thinking way too ahead but I'm really paranoid. I can't take holding it in anymore, but I'm way too embarrassed to bring this up to her. I hate his guts for using her (for her body only) at a time when she's so vulnerable. I just need some guidance right now, even if it's from strangers. Thanks I'm 22 btw so I'm disgusted

Me and my wife went to see Slender Man she's kind of freaked out even though she liked the movie. She always gets jumpy after watching scary movies even though she loves them. Some scary movies are based on true stories those kind of scare her we were watching Lights Out the other night she couldn't sleep after it. Slender Man she's not sure about sleeping. How can I help her feel better ?
