I'm guessing smothering her with love (or a pillow) would be illegal too?Originally posted by chef View PostI thought exactly the same with my ex but then realised stabbing through a heart of ice is both difficult and illegal'elf and safety guruComment

Yup, 17 days in to marriage so far, but after nearly 20 years together, marriage isn't a tradition for us...it's something done for love and specialness to each other.
We got married for ourselves, on our own terms, which is why it was a very private ceremony, with no one else invited (apart from the priest and 2 witnesseses)Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Probably unhappy that she's not getting enough sex from you.Originally posted by thelace View PostShe had a hysterectomy 6 years ago, which mean her hormones are unballanced. I know this and make allowances. But certainly for the last 3 years, she's been filled with anger most of the time.
I can never do enough for her. I cook 2 - 3 times a week, keep on top of the washing, stack the dishwasher, often do the ironing, keeping on top of the DIY, etc, etc....
The kids can never do enough (they're teenegers for goodness sake, their rooms aren't likely to look like a showhouse). They are pretty good kids (not perfect, but who'd want them to be?), and they never bring mates home unless mummy is grumpy
I've suggested relate, but she says there's nothing wrong, she's happy....
She's stormed out of the house 3 times recently "I'm the only one who does anything in this house, nobody helps me" sort of thing. I've started thinking "well don't come back then"! This is not healthy in a marriage.
I'm currently only staying there for the kids, but I'm not sure it does them any good to see their parents arguing all the time!
Why not tell her that you are at the end of your tether, and that if she doesn't come to relate to try to sort things out, you're leaving?
Or get her sectioned.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

That's the problem they weren't happy. Children RUIN relationships, they really do.Originally posted by SallyAnne View PostAh no - not my hubby.
But we've had 4 couples (really really close to both of us) split over the last 2 years, and at the time it was because it "just wasn't working out" etc etc, but in time we've learnt that each one of the blokes has f*kcing cheated!!
And these are all couples who've been together for like 10+ years, with kids. The kind of proper established couples who always seemed happy.
In any case why blame the bloke. If women didn't help the bloke cheat then they wouldn'tComment
