Boring husband

I must have the most boring man in the world.

I suggest getting a babysitter and going for a drink yet all I hear is 'I'm too tired'.

I work long hours also yet I don't have time to snooze cuz of the kids needing minded/home works done etc.

Is anyone else in the same predicament as me? Any suggestions on how to turn things around? I'm so pissed off I need a life away from him.

Perhaps if you're fundamentally incompatible, you should consider leaving so that you can have your life away with him?

Yeah he wants to sleep continually when not at work. Sick hearing 'I'm so tired' continually. We can't afford financially to be apart and we have kids. It's so bloody boring being married to him. He's dragging me down.

Maybe he doesn't want to go for a drink but something he is more interested in might work. Maybe the fact you have a single woman profile on here is helping crush the life out of your marriage?

Maybe he has a problem that he doesn't want to share with you. Perhaps he's got an illness and he won't go to the doctor.

Perhaps he think's you're a bitch because you're thinking about playing away and just wants as little to do with you as possible, while knowing that he can't afford to kick you out.

Have you discussed having a profile with him? If not then I suggest that you do.

Cheating is not the answer to issues within your marriage.

OP life isn't a bed of roses it doesn't owe you anything. Maybe he is boring but maybe that's because he's not happy either.....

Do what you need to do by all means but try and have some respect for the man by not slagging him off to random strangers.

How about you actually talk to him about what he wants to do. If he says he is too tired then tell him how you feel and that you want to put the spark back in your marriage. That then puts the onus on him as he knows things are not well at home.

Maybe and here is a crazy idea.

Have you tried talking to him?

Maybe he is suffering from depression and needs the love and support of family.

Maybe he feels same as you.

It can't be all his fault?

I was with my previous partner for over a year and we had sex three times. Our relationship ultimately broke up over other things but I do wonder how I managed to cope, as does my current partner, as we are sexually compatible. In that relationship I never cheated on him, but was not happy. Took other things to end it. Sexual comparability is important in a relationship, but everything is your choice.

You surprise me, advocating buggering a man without his consent. Assault at least.

Whether you've had a good night out with the girls or not.

ps wasn't it in the sometime in the last century when women no longer needed consent or even approval to go out on their own?

jeez, they even gave you seperate taxation c1991

Tonight's homework aka your excitement for the evening...

Would being upset that his wife has a single profile on a swinging site really be because he's 'old fashioned'?

Do you think setting up your profile is making things better for your marriage in the long term or just yourself short term?

Are you happy to play out the consequences of what you're doing for a quick fumble of excitement?

What's a better way to get excitement that's in the best interest of you, your husband, your marriage, your family?

I don't need to know the answers but I think you do. Good luck

I'd get someone round helping you anyway, tell him first and just say you're not doing everything yourself and had enough. Tbh i'd be making deals with him now that if he doesn't come to some compromise with you then you will end it, or at least be having a break until he understands that relationships are give and take.

It's awful when you have to do everything, i remember just how demeaning it is as well as tiring and boring.

I've been there and done that and I used 'him not doing enough/me being unhappy' as an excuse. When he found out we spoke it out and we sorted it all out. He knows my needs and is "changing" for our family almost destroyed us - now I couldn't be happier. annoys me that she's moaned on here about him and not gone to him and told him to his face. Seriously unless she says something nothing will change In her home life.

You look like you're putting effort into your marriage, being on a swingers site by yourself and all if you were that unhappy, you'd leave no matter what your financial situation was. Face the fact that he isn't the only one in your marriage and that you're to blame too

I have empathy for her.

Been in her position and hated it. You want out of the relationship but at the same time you want to repair it and be happy again.

You have all sorts of emotions going on and if anyone had had a go at me at the time i wouldv've head butted them, had enough on my plate as it is.

She actually asked for advice on how to fix things between them as well. And mentioned she needed a life away from him, which is probably where the night out thing came from.

Whereas guys come in and start going on about not getting meets and not being able to cheat on theri unknowing partner, there's some difference.

Sounds to me like both of ye are in a rut,your working so hard and coming home and then having to be the Mam.He's probably got it in his head,buried deep down that this isn't what he signed up for.He's possibly not thrilled with his worklife and feeling down and inadequate because you have to work all the hours to provide for the family.You say he is traditional/old fashioned so that's what makes me think that.

A marriage counselor like Relate or Accord might help.In the meantime,what about setting up a night a month to start with where both of ye go out together to somewhere of interest that ye wouldn't normally go.Give him plenty of notice so he can prepare himself both financially and mentally.Do something silly that gives both of ye a laugh.I don't mean like a setup date night,I mean do something daft and fun with no pressure.

Her OP is slagging off her hubby. I have no problem with attached people being on here but I do have a problem with them whining about their partners.

Fine, there's a fair few nasty replies though that are judging her when she asked for advice. Don't know who sent them as i'm focusing more on what OP says and if i can help her with that.

She might not have anyone else to whinge or vent to, and i'm big believer that talking about your troubles help you to get things into perspective, if given constructive advice or sometimes just empathy.

You need to talk and be honest with each other. Forget the improved social life etc for now. Back to basics, with each other.

Open up your life, so you're less dependent - I'm talking socially, not sexually.

Fine. You can ask for advice without slagging off the other party. That to me, coupled with the fact she is on here means there is little respect and it doesn't seem worth saving. In my opinion.

sometimes you need to be blunt with someone without actually spelling it all out. i gave her advice, ive been through what she is going through and gave her the cure - if shes not willing to try she be as well break up with him. if this was a guys thread my advice would be exactly the same. Mr has given advice to many a men playing away. its up to them to fix the relationship theyre in.

Seen one guy ask for advice this week about his wife. He got some good advice and a nbit of slagging off then left, probably to fix things idk.

Hardly seen any topics where married guys ask for advice on how to fix their marriage though, it's usually they're moaning about not getting meets and that's when they get ripped to shreds for doing it behind their partners back.

I used to be tired all the time. If i drove for an hour it would wipe me out! I was weak as a kitten during the day. I tried to get fit by cycling and one day it left me completely incapacitated much to my colleagues amusement! Hang overs were hell on earth! Even my mother in law labeled me "pathetic"...turned out i had heart failure! Luckily i was diagnosed before i had a stroke. Say hi to your husband from me and tell him to get checked out at the Dr's. I hope he doesn't cramp your style to much.

If OPs husband is tired all the time, it does sound like he's in a bad state. Possibly physical illness, but more likely from depression.

It could be that he sees that his wife no longer loves him and is just waiting for the day that it all breaks down. I understand you may be on here because you want satisfaction, but is a quick lay worth destroying your marriage? Chances are he can sense that you are unhappy with him.

Instead of trying to talk to him, how about just listening to him. He won't open up in one night, but when he feels comfortable, he will start to talk. Give him a chance, otherwise if you don't think he's worth it, you may as well just tell him everything now and leave him. I'd like to think that you might want to fight that outcome before it all ends though.

Jeez either you love him or you don't right??? If he's suffering from depression which is what it sounds like you love him realise something.... You are probably part of the reason why he is depressed!!!

If you truely love him then instead of fucking behind his back and slagging him off to strangers you could try finding out what is wrong and supporting him.

If you don't love him pack your bags and go as there's no point continuing the marriage as will only cause problems for you, him and the children especially if he finds out your cheating on him.

""a excuse to cheat"

Its not always the cheating that bothers me, People will always have their reasons for why they do it, Its people talking about their partners on a forum etc without them having a chance to defend themselves "

I completely agree. Makes me really uncomfortable to see.

However, I'm not going to slag the OP off either. If it's not ok for her to criticise her husband's behaviour (and I don't think it is) then it's not my place to criticise hers either.

Anything is possible, if your marriage, is so unbearable!

Perhaps he's tired, perhaps he works his arse off to support you and your kids? Perhaps he's lazy who knows..

I work long shifts in a pretty demanding.. Job and I'm constantly tired.. I'm not boring I'm just knackered!!

If you want it to work between the two of you, and think it's salvageable? Talk to him..

Or walk away.. Life is to short to be miserable, believe me I know, there's help out there..

But having a single, profile on here? It's not going to help, the situation.. Concentrate.. On your children. They need you.. Even if your husband doesn't get off here, and sort it out.

Ok first price of advice you need to be honest with him and tell him you've been cheating.

He needs to be able to make an I formed desicion not one based on lies.

But your not going to do that are you?

Because you're not here for advice on how to turn your marriage around your here for a quick fix that doesn't require anything from you that puts everything onto him.

Tell him and let him decide what he wants to do.

If you are staying there purely out of convenience and because it's better for you financially, I don't think an extra bit of excitement is going to help.

Also, if there are emotional gaps, whether you plan to or not, anyone you meet, you might end up not able to stop yourself falling for him and ending up in a worse situation

Thank you, those of you who have not critised and taken time to offer advice. Your help has been appreciated and I will try some of your tips. Xx"

Judging by this you weren't after advice but people to be nice. If you can't take the heat then perhaps some advice would be not to ask a bunch of strangers who tbh know only your side of the story for advice. The only people who will know if your marriage is worth saving is you, your husband and your kids.

"Ok first price of advice you need to be honest with him and tell him you've been cheating".

He needs to be able to make an I formed desicion not one based on lies.

If I was him I wouldn't want to know, As it would play on my mind every time she went out or talked to another Man, If they managed to find that spark again and spend the rest of their lives happy and in love I could live with what you don't know can't hurt you,

But that's just my opinion

I think this has been a very tame thread tbh. Yes there has been criticism but a lot of people (myself included) don't approve of cheating. Beneath the criticism though there has been advice - speak to your husband, find out if there is an underlying problem causing his fatigue, try to get some time together without your children or spend some time with friends having a bit of space and if none of that works then maybe go your separate ways. None of it is easy, but have a bit of respect for him and your marriage...you can't deny that your are cheating on him so you're far from perfect or a complete victim in the situation. Figure out what is actually wrong and either fix it or move on.

Even if you did get criticism it was very tame in HOW it was typed in relation to when a single man starts the same sort of thread.

Personally I would never assume what is going on in a relationship to want to give advice about what you should be doing, even the odd snippets you gave didn't tell of what lengths you may have gone to to try and sort things out BUT, your husband sounds like he is stuck in a rut too and maybe needs checking out by the Doc if he is so tired all the time.

Exactly this...

Not wishing to offend you OP but you asked for advice... you got advice... probably not the advice you want to hear, so you choose to ignore it and instead focus on the criticism of you being on here as a 'single' woman, cheating on your husband.

If you want to see what true criticism of infidelity is, we suggest you search the threads of married men masquerading as singles saying similar things to your original post.

Because you have got off lightly.

"I must have the most boring man in the world.

I suggest getting a babysitter and going for a drink yet all I hear is 'I'm too tired'.

I work long hours also yet I don't have time to snooze cuz of the kids needing minded/home works done etc.

Is anyone else in the same predicament as me? Any suggestions on how to turn things around? I'm so pissed off I need a life away from him.

Not read the whole thread I've skim read a few messages but my opinion for what it's worth is.....

Some marriage just aren't ment to be, sometimes people fall out of love and though failed marriages can be fixed it takes two to put all their effort into it, if ones not interested forget it

I spent the last eight years of my marriage living with a guy I ended up despising it started after the birth my youngest child, I gained quite a lot of weight and he just went off me because I was fat, life just went down hill from there, we ended up just being two people who tolerated each other in the same house

A unhappy marriage will not end well and if your husband pays you no attention to the point your looking to play away you may as well pack up now and go because it will happen, unless you both want it to work, one person can not fix a broken marriage and the sad thing is some stay together out of habit and don't even want to put any effort into fixing it

My biggest regret is us not splitting up years before we did, I feel I wasted so many years

But ultimately it's upto you

Life is tough for everyone - do something about. There are more productive places to complain about your life than on a swingers site.

Is life tough for everyone though?

Sometimes it helps to share with total strangers your inner feelings and maybe this post has helped.

Shame she's getting so much grief and not much advice..

"

This is what happened with me, no the grief but needing help. I had a miscarriage and felt a need for some support and physical comfort, my ex (who i was still with at the time) couldn't offer that to me because he needed support and was used to me being the supportive one. I had no family nearby either, and i did turn to strangers in the hope of getting what i wanted coz i knew i wouldn't get it from anyone i knew. I'm not after sympathy, got over it ages ago and dealt with it, just agreeing and saying life's not that simple.

Things aren't always black and white and people can only cope with so much. People often deal with things by reaching out and if i'd had advice when i needed it all that time ago i might not have even left that relationship and been able to sort it out. I got to the point where OP is now and i just left him, despite wanting everything to be fixed and sorted, just venting mightb have helped me get everything into proportion because now i can see where we went wrong, but at the time i was wrapped up in myself and my needs because of how i felt at the time.

maybe hes thinking the exact same thing about you. maybe he finds you boring and the best way to deal with his misery is to sleep so he doesn't have to talk/go out/shop/drink/have sex with you. maybe hes only staying because he doesn't want to leave you with financial worries. maybe hes the one who needs excitement. Why don't you ask him right out, then youll have the answer and can decide whether to stay or go. easier all round if you both know you hate being together the marriage is dead you can walk away then and have your fun.

And, because my needs weren't being fulfilled i didn't give a shit if my exes were too, resentment sets in and that's where the problems started for my relationship. Just like OP has resentment now.

That's why i don't care about the cheating or the slagging him off, know exactly how she feels and how it leaves you feeling. At least she wanted to try and fix things and asked for help with that.

And i wish people would stop saying if a guy had started this topic they would have been ripped to shreds, because as someone who has had this said in their topic about them it actually makes you feel like others are asking people to rip you to shreds.

"because i believe you misunderstood my point hence the reason you started going on about guys moaning about not getting meets etc... which has nothing to do with what i was saying if a guy posted the same thing would of been ripped apart as said above

Nobody has been a cunt to her the "advice" she was given was to have a night out with the girls and i firmly believe if the roles were reversed a guy wouldn't have been told to just enjoy a night out with the lads like it or not some threads go differently if they are started by a male or female

Seen one guy ask for advice this week about his wife. He got some good advice and a nbit of slagging off then left, probably to fix things idk.

Hardly seen any topics where married guys ask for advice on how to fix their marriage though, it's usually they're moaning about not getting meets and that's when they get ripped to shreds for doing it behind their partners back.

Didn't see that thread so can't comment he could of left to fix things or could of left because he was getting slagged off i have no idea

well i have seen many and everytime the guy gets ripped apart but the same subject by a woman goes down very different i am not talking about meets or moaning about lack of meets you're the only one that brought that up i was strictly talking about this thread and subject and the difference if it was posted by a male or female nothing else

No problem, i didn't agree with your comment that's all. Although some men do stick up for women in the hope of getting fucked i do know that.

I have no interest in this person at all, just didn't like how the thread has gone, it's horrible that when someone reaches out to others they just get a load of abuse or judged, when they wanted help.

I would stick up for guys/men as well if this happened to them by the way."

The way the thread has gone?? Its all seemed fairly tame and reasonable upto this point...are you just desperately looking for the abuse that isnt there??

i'm sorry but I'm just gonna point out (again) you only have one side of the story and unless you're part of the marriage can't give the sweeping statements like you have like why the OP has resentment or clam to know exactly how she feels when you don't have all the information just what she has chosen to share and the more you go on it seems like talking about you're own personal experience in this matter rather than the OPs just my opinion tho

"Have you asked him what he wants to do?

Yeah he wants to sleep continually when not at work. Sick hearing 'I'm so tired' continually. We can't afford financially to be apart and we have kids. It's so bloody boring being married to him. He's dragging me down. "

Maybe you should listen to what he's saying. He works bloody hard, is struggling financially, and is very tired, a lot of the time. Maybe he feels in a rut also ? Life can be mundane and it is very easy to think the grass is greener elsewhere. Good luck.
