I really enjoyed the dead relative charm story, it's so wonderful

"I know you've made plans to gently caress someone else today... but I'll cast a spell on you!"

*holds up charm, a bright light fills the room*

hahahaha for gently caress's sake

Like this dude genuinely sat down and made a list

Step 1. Show charm
Step 2. This will bring up memories of dead relative
Step 3. Using the transitive formula from Algebra 2 we can determine that this will lead to memories of being in love
Step 4. At that point she'll cancel her date with Chad who is T minus 5 minutes to come over and gently caress her
Step 5. We go back to being in love

Man, my brother and I were fat little piglets as kids; so our parents signed us up for a year-round competitive swim club when I was eight.

Seems like the parents could have cut him off at the pass years ago.

Not a r/rela post, but I was searching for the original of that pre-nup arsehole post and came across this gem from the Telegraph's advice column

I had an affair and now I'm stuck with the 'other woman' - how did this happen to me? posted:

I have messed up and don’t know how to get out of it. I was happily married for 15 years and a proud dad. But at an office party I ended up kissing a colleague. Afterwards, I tried to make it clear I wasn’t interested but somehow she and I began sexting and sharing explicit photos. I wanted to end it but it was a thrill and ego boost. Then my wife found out and left me. I was very shocked and begged her for a second chance. She refused. I tried to win her back by making her jealous. I told her if she left me I would start dating the woman from work. I didn’t actually plan to do it, but my wife saw this as evidence that I was not to be trusted.

Next thing I knew, the woman from work started acting like we were an item. I have ruined my chances with my wife, but would like her to forgive me. The woman from work is nice but she’s not a patch on my wife and now I’m stuck with her. She keeps telling me how she’s always had a thing for me and can’t believe we’re finally together. She was meant to be a no-strings flirt. I was meant to be married. I’ve no idea how all this happened.

I guarantee he tried to make wife jealous by sending messages to the other woman about how they can finally be together, not just making vague threats to his wife about it. That's why the other woman is under the impression they were together now. Jesus.

WELL ACTUALLY

They're generally called "premarital agreements" now, and their enforceability is dependent on what state the parties are in - as a rule, there is no requirement of consideration for a prenup to be enforceable, other than the mutual promise to be married.

I think about half of the states have adopted the standard code for premarital agreements where this is the case, and most - if not all - of the rest have substantially similar laws to the same effect.

Me [34 M] with my wife [27 F] of 4 years, backed out of a threesome, hasn't spoken to me since.

I don't know where to start. When we first got together it was clear that I had more sexual experience than her, but that was all well and fine. I communicated my needs early on and was very upfront about what I need sexually in a LTR, so was she. I thought everything was fine and dandy, it's not like I've developed some new kink in the past few months.

So one of those things was threesomes, obviously it's nothing I'd force a woman to partake in, but I clarified early on that this was one of those things I would need from a long-term partner and I thought she was on the same page.

The past 5 years have been incredible, we are extremely compatible in every way and our sex life has (up until recently) been extremely satisfying to us both.

Through the years, we've spiced it up with lots of different things, but the threesome just never came to be. Which is fine, like I said, I'm not going to force her to do anything. The past few months, though, our sex life has grown a bit stagnant and I've suggested revisiting the threesome idea.

One night, out of nowhere we were just hanging out and watching a movie, she said she wanted to try it. Needless to say, I was ecstatic. I started asking her how she wanted to find the other girl and she seemed to not want much to do with that part of things. I suggested we went to a bar or club and tried to pick up a woman together, so that we could both have a say in who it was and both be attracted to her. She said that was a bit bigger of a step than she could take, hitting on a woman in public basically, which I get, so we decided I would go by myself, let her know the deal and if she was into it, bring her back to our house.

All seemed great, wife even bought some new lingerie for the occasion, which we set for Valentine's Day, seemed like a fun, spicy and adventurous way to spend the holiday.

First, the two of us got dinner, then I kissed her goodbye and skipped off to find our threesome buddy. Here's where my story takes a rather embarrassing turn. It took me a bit longer than I was anticipating to find someone. Not a big deal, I was just out on the hunt til a bit later than I expected, but I eventually found an attractive enough girl who was a bit sloppy but all over me and just lit up when I mentioned my wife at home and the threesome.

I text my wife to let her know we're on our way but don't get a response - not unusual as we aren't big texters, sending the occasional "I'm on my way" or "Grab milk please" so her lack of response wasn't really a red flag of any kind.

We get up to our flat and all the lights are off, I'd set up some candles before I left and not only did she not light them but she actually put them all away. I asked the girl to wait in our living room and found my wife sleeping in bed. I gently woke her up with some kisses, apologized for being late, and asked her to come out into the living room, describing the girl waiting for us. She kissed me and said she was tired, that I could go on without her and she'd just rather sleep.

Now, polygamy was something I've always thought about, and I'm not going to pretend that over the past 5 years I haven't fantasized about loving someone other than my wife, so when the chance presented itself to me, I'll admit I may have been a bit too enthusiastic. On my way out she wished me a happy Valentine's Day, which I took to mean that this was my present.

The girl and I ended up loving a few times and passing out on the couch.

I woke up the next morning, girl was there, wife was gone. I'm worried sick, she's not at her mom's or her sister's, her phone is on but she won't answer my calls or my texts. I'm absolutely devastated, I had no idea how much this would hurt her and as you all can see I thought she was on board for everything. She said it was all okay so I don't really get how she gets to act like this now.

Reddit, what do I do?

tl;dr: Wife and I set up a threesome which she backed out of. She's now ghosting me and hasn't spoken to me in 2 days.

Consideration means you can't enforce a contract that says "You will give me 10 million dollars" that contract needs to be written so the person giving 10 million gets something in exchange for the 10 million.

A contract has to meet certain tests to be enforceable

The "all pre nups are invalid due to lack of consideration" poster misunderstood consideration, the marriage is the consideration, ie, you sign the pre nup, you get married

Sounds like your wife put up with your expectation of threesomes all this time because you made it a clear condition of being together. She tried, realized she couldn't do it, and when you were all too eager to sleep with another woman without your wife involved she realized what she'd gotten into.

Hopefully she does what's best for her in the long run. Seems obvious that you happily ignored her cues that the situation was not one she was comfortable with. She deserves better.

Like it 100% sounds they shouldn't have been married, dude was absolutely serious about wanting a poly bride and she said she was on board with it and then it turns out she wasn't and now the narrative is that he's suddenly a dick for being serious about it in the first place.

I think poly people are total loving idiots but if people express clearly they want [x] for 5 years and you pretend you're on board with it but really not, then how else is it going to end?
