The astounding lack of testicles most of these men have in these "relationships" is mind boggling.

Me [35 F] with my husband [32 M] of 3 years, had a disaster of a wedding. I want friends and family to lay off my anniversary and I want to figure out how to deal with my anger about the whole situation and find a possible solutionquote:Our 3 year wedding anniversary was 5 days ago, and we have been trying fruitlessly to get people to celebrate our actual anniversary in mid Aug for 3 years. quote:Well we wouldn't do a marriage redo thing I don't think. What someone else suggested doing is a "we've been a couple for x years party", which we could do in 2 years on our 10 year anniversary. One of the major things that rankles me is that people keep insisting that the marriage marked some big change and it didn't. We're still in the same relationship, and people tend to lop off the years before the party, like they don't count. It irks me to no end when people are like they've been married 3 years! Um we've been together for 8! Don't make it sound like those 5 years don't count the same way.

This story is so long and so poorly told by a thunderous idiot that I genuinely dont know if it signifies anything. . I assumed the issue was they got a court wedding then did a different public ceremony wedding and people only well wish them on the ceremony date, but it sounds like those were the same thing and ahe wants them to celebrate the day they started dating?

Stopped robbery, fired a gun (not necessarily in self defense)quote:Last night I was at a gas station by my apartment I frequent, buying coffee and snacks to stay up all night studying. I was looking at the cheezits, with a couple aisles between me and the register, and a short, small homeless-looking man walked in. I noticed him as soon as he walked in. He was walking unsteadily and looked intoxicated. He walked up to cashier, pulled out a pistol, waved it at the employee with finger on the trigger. He didn't even look around before he did this. He started mumble-slurring, saying "I need money, give me money man, I'll loving kill you". He didn't sound angry/agitated so much as sad and having trouble with his words. The employee put his hands up and stood there with a deer in the headlights look. I saw he was much smaller than me, and clearly not mentally alert, and I figured I could take the gun from him. Strangely I was not scared at all, maybe I should have been. I walked up behind him right away and he didn't turn around or notice me. When I got close enough, I lunged for the gun. He tensed up as soon as he felt me, I held his hand (and gun) pointed at the ground as best as I could, and I bit his arm as hard as I could. Like really loving hard, I felt like my teeth sunk into him. He yelled and let go of the gun, I jumped back. As soon as I jumped back he was already turned and running towards the door. I don't know why, but I shot twice into the ceiling over his head. Prior to attacking him I had thought "i'm going to shoot the gun as soon as I have it, to make sure it works (chambered, loaded, off safe) in case I have to actually shoot him". I carried through with it even though it wasn't really necessary because he was already leaving. He kept running (totally cured of his lethargy at this point), I stepped outside and saw him running away. I went back inside and set the gun on the counter. Employee said "holy poo poo". My nerves started going crazy and I instantly realized I might have hosed up bad with the shooting. In the comments he argues with literally everyone, and I suspect he might be the human embodiment of that navy seals copypasta

My gf [25 F] of 3~ years is wearing a male roommate's clothes to bed with me - am I wrong to be bothered?quote:m a 26 year old male. The male roommate/mutual friend has made a couple inappropriate/suggestive jokes or comments towards her that have made me uneasy. She's shut it down when it happens, and insists it means nothing - I believe it is nothing to her, but I do find myself questioning his intentions. , side-guy redditor. Wife [25F] cusses at me [26M] and says it's no big deal quote:My wife constantly cusses at me and name calls when she's mad which lately in our relationship is more often than not. She says that she works all day and is always tired(which is usually her fault because she stays up late watching tv and sometimes says it's my fault because we're arguing) I tell her I do not do this to her and that I want just want respect. She says that because I'm so skinny I'm being sensitive and she's sure other guys who are more built than me would react the way I do to how I talk to her. She says I know how to be a husband in every sense but I don't know how to handle her. She says she's improved from how she used to treat me but I said she still treats me like crap only for her to respond I don't treat you like crap, I'm young and this isn't how I'm going to act forever you need to understand that. My boyfriend [22/M] wont let me [24/F] drink alcohol? Im not a bar/club type of person, I just like to have a beer at home at the end of the day but he wont let me quote:He thinks I have a problem with alcohol because I used to drink 3/4 days a week, but it was only at night, and only after I came home from work (I was in college and working two part time jobs at the time). Im not big into clubs or bars or anything, Im almost 25 and have only been to three bars in my life. The thing is, I just like to have a beer after work or at the end of the day. I really only drink once a month now that weve been living together, but even that is too much for him. Im kind of losing my mind with this. He says that Im not very smart and that drinking will make me dumber, the thing is, I know that Im smart! I was the only one of all my friends to go to college, and the only one of my friends to not get pregnant and on food stamps. I grew up with a rougher around the edges type of life than he did, but Im proud of the things Ive accomplished. He wants me to improve my brain and get smarter but says that drinking will make me dumber. I think this is a copout though, because hes told me before that drinking could make me gain weight, I think thats the real reason. Either way Im kind of suffocating. Also about twice a month he will blow up on me and tell me Im stupid, retarded, an idiot, too stupid for college......The sad thing is Im actually really smart, my siblings and parents have told me that Im the smartest one in my whole family (none of them went to college although they do well for themselves), Im proud of myself in what Ive done and I think Im smart, but he has put it into my head over and over and over how stupid I am and Im starting to believe him. What can I do about the name calling? He gets mad when I bring it up and tries to pretend like nothing happened and that I should just shut up about it. I havent had a beer in almost two weeks and Id really like to have one to relax, but he wont let me walk to the store to get one. Sidenote, he doesnt drink, but he smokes weed everyday. I tell him this isnt fair, but he says that he lets me vape so I let him smoke weed and thats an even trade off, and that I cant have alcohol on top of the vaping (I used vaping to help myself get off cigarettes although I eventually plan to quit vaping too)

Me [20F] and boyfriend [21M] of almost 2 years—thinking I need to break up with him.quote:I'm going to try and make this brief, but I apologize if I ramble on. Alt account for anonymity. This response is amazing: quote:Just break up with him. After your break up, he isn't your responsibility any more. Stop setting yourself on fire to keep him warm. You don't want to be in a relationship with him any more. It's ok to be selfish here. He will deal with the break up like any other adult will. If he threatens to do something stupid during the break up, it's a manipulation tactic and the right response is to get in touch with the proper authorities and/or his friends/family. Just end things and move on with your life.

The "stop setting yourself on fire to keep them warm" thing pops up a lot in /r/relationships comments. It seems just witty enough that people parrot it over and over. My [19F] girlfriend is the worst texter and it's killing our relationship quote:We are long distance. I [19M] always try to show effort in my text messages but because [19F] she is so busy with school and sorority stuff her messages always come off short and uninterested. I'm at the point where it doesn't feel fair at all so I'm starting to match her effort and texting style. This leads to dry, short, and uninterested conversations like:

Heartbroken, feeling alone and confused. (self.polyamory) Formatting by me, this was one giant wall of text quote:I'm very new to polyamory and I just got my heart broken. My girlfriend (20f) of 2 years and I (22m) just broke up. We were off and on open throughout our relationship. Among a handful of other issues it seemed that to her open relationships were about random one night stands and hookups while for me it was about meaningful connection and trying to pursue multiple ongoing relationships. Admittedly I realize I was probably pushing her towards something she wasn't comfortable with. quote:Polyamourous dating is fundamentally different from monogamous dating in at least one significant way. In monogamous dating the goal is normally combining your life's, we call it riding the relationship escalator, each step of the dating process make you more codependent, your life's more comingled. As the relationship escalates you tend to spend most of your time together and consume most of your entertainment together. That is not true for poly dating. In poly dating, especially if someone is doing hierarchal poly and already has a primary, you tend to only spend a pre-determined amount of your time together. You have a relationship budget. You are going to have more relationship time in your budget then her. It might behoove you to find other places than her to spend it. I highly recommend that for at least the next few month you spend it on you time. How broken do you have to be to unironically use the phrase "relationship budget" and not immediately go holy poo poo what's wrong with me

quote:Actually, I did trace down the origin, from one of the original Kerista members who claims to have been present (and whom I find believable). For your curiosity, he says it was created by the group via Ouija board (a device of which Kerista made extensive use for decision making), prompted when a couple of the female members were discussing positive feelings they had about their male partners with others and thought "there ought to be a word". It was not consciously invented from any roots. Alas, I don't believe there is any Wikipedia citable source for this origin, so even if true (and I believe it is), we can't describe it here. it's brain worms
