Confession of the Day

I, HLM (high libido male) recently had severe depression which was not noticed by my wife. A few months later, and after some changes, I feel a lot better. I made the decision that my marriage was over completely and asked to begin formally separating.

My LLF (low libido female) 34 wife and I had been together 17 years, married for 8, two kids, 3 and 5. We have had a completely dead bedroom for 6 years other than 12 times (yes precisely), to get her pregnant with our second kid.

I had been really struggling with the lack of sex and intimacy for a long time, but given the kids’ arrival and all of the shit that happens around childbirth and pregnancy, I held back from making big decisions for far longer than I was comfortable.

Is This Really All There Is to Life?

Eat sleep go to work, repeat. Where’s the adventure? Where’s the romance ? Seems like we are all slaving away to the rat race and have no time for passion projects. The monotony of routine is killing me

Your sentiment echoes in the hearts of many. The daily grind – eat, sleep, work, repeat – can indeed feel like an endless loop, devoid of the adventure and romance we yearned for in our younger days.

In adulthood, unlike childhood where adventures are often planned for us, we must take the initiative to create our own excitement and experiences.

You Cannot Directly Control How Anyone Else Thinks or Feels about You.

Many of us spend an inordinate amount of time and energy trying to shape how others perceive us. We curate our social media profiles, rehearse conversations, and often alter our behavior in the pursuit of approval or acceptance. This pursuit, however, is akin to chasing shadows. People’s thoughts and feelings are filtered through their own experiences, biases, and emotional states. These filters are beyond our control.

Why Arguing with Strangers on the Internet Is a Fool’s Errand

In the immortal words often attributed to Mark Twain, “Never argue with a fool; onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.” This sage advice, while centuries old, holds an even greater significance in today’s digital age where arguing with strangers on the internet has become a common pastime. The question arises: Why is engaging in online arguments, especially with those who seem intent on sowing discord, akin to arguing with fools, and how can we navigate these treacherous waters with our sanity intact?
