Odd. Our experience is completely reverse. We've never seen a female condom out in the wild, but our local pharmacy has diaphragms on the shelf.

Damn what did I miss? 🍵

Please keep in mind that this condition will never go away or "get better." It could improve through therapy or medication, but it still could have an impact on your mental health. Also, keep in mind that it could get worse, especially if kids get in the picture. I've been with my wife for 14 years and she has an anxiety disorder that results in pretty extreme emotions and anger on occasion. It has gotten better after about 2 years of therapy, but the 14 years of constantly worrying if she's going to have a bad day have definitely taken a toll on my mental health and our relationship. I'm not saying you should immediately dump her, but you sound just like I did 14 years ago and it has been a very, very difficult road. Do I love my wife? Yes, but more like a friend that I live with than a wife I should be mentally/emotionally attracted to.

Good point that him complaining that I do everything just shows that he is in fact aware of our current division, and I'm now realizing that I'm not ok with him knowing this and still acting like a victim.

Exactly. Nobody is worth this and if he was a decent man he would never have put you through this. Enjoy the weekend with your friend, have a great time and you'll feel better for it. Good luck.

I'll see if I can set him up a savings account. He usually likes to keep cash.

There's another issue between A and me. I updated the post. A is my ex's collegues.

Yes I'm going to slow it down. It all hit me during this week

She needs to change pills. There’s honestly no point in a romantic relationship if you’re just room mates.

It's a good idea to ask him to write down the chores and create a chart for us to work together. It will shed some light into what he thinks is important and what he thinks I'm doing. Thanks for the advice!

Anything other than proportional splitting is financial abuse, unless you both agree you’ll be a SAHM

If you work full time you pay a proportional amount…end of story

Thanks for the practical advice, I think the main problems is that we don't know what each other prefers and have no visibility on what each other is doing, and talking about it seems challenging but rewarding

Yeah I’ve been worried sick over this for days now, unable to eat properly and finding going to work and getting out really difficult. I’m going to my friend’s house over the weekend to have a distraction. This behaviour from him has been a bit of a turn off tho tbh, if he can’t be respectful enough of boundaries as small as simply not going through girls insta pages when he’s saying he can’t message me, then it might be better to find someone who can be respectful of those things

He doesn't get it. He doesn't care. Sit him down and explain that this is a deal breaker for you.

I've had that problem too. Set up his pay check for direct deposit to two accounts: a debit/checking and a savings. You can set up the savings that he can see it but not touch it or not see it at all.

He proposed buying another truck for $13,000. That's buys a very nice diamond ring.

So you’re basically friends at best?

Go find someone else to date then

Yes. That's the constraint here. Though my ex cheated on me and is dating someone else rn. When he knew I surprised A on his bday, he called me and was pissed off why was I still in touch with his friends. But A and me have been friends for like 2-3 years now. And we have become better friends than A and my ex.

H is cousin of A

The easiest thing to do is to ask A out, from there everything else falls into place, whether he says yes or no. You'll know for sure if A likes you and H will know you don't like them (romantically).
