My husband was a card carrying member of the Young Republicans of Ohio when we met. I'm a down the line Independent. I asked him specifically about his views and after 20+ years together, he's Independent but Fiscally Conservative and I'm Independent but Socially Liberal. Find your tribe. It'll work itself out.

Your title did not include at least two ages/genders or was not formatted correctly
Posts must:
include details about the involved parties including ages, genders, and length of relationship, and
request advice in real situations involving two or more people
We are enforcing the two rules listed above by making all titles start with ages/genders in the following format:
[##X][##X], [## X][## X], or [##-X][##-X] where ## is the age and X is the gender (currently M, F, T, A, NB, FTM, MTF but more can be added). You can have more than two ages/genders listed, but you must have at least two at the beginning of your title. Here is an example:
I feel like the details are scanty on this one, she let a another man kiss her, that's already bad. She stopped anything else, that's good. She's most of the way out the door on this relationship. You admit you've been a fun partner in the past, and an inattentive one lately. You're both mature adults (allegedly).
So why haven't you talked with her about what's going on? Why did she do this and do either of you even want to fix it? Looking at your ages, it could be that she wants to have kids and realized you're not the partner she wants to do that with. It could be that neither of you wants kids and she just wants to find someone more attentive. Talk to her.
My guess is your desperation is a bit of trauma bonding though; faced with imminent loss, you appreciate what you previously took for granted.
That was the primary goal. I collected everything that I was directed to and advised to. It took some time. But what I was told to collect I did what I was told I needed I found. And the residuals are what what I may hold on to but after having some conversation here I'm really thinking about just turning it all over to the attorney. The divorce attorney not the criminal. I was hoping all this could be done by the new year and serve the papers then but it's looking now like it's going to be around February 8th
What an asshole. If he doesn’t get the picture and stop that weird shit, start sending topless pics of Channing Tatum and Tyson Beckford to your gfs in front of them and act like you’re drooling over them with your words ? in front of him too.
I was in a relationship EXACTLY like this. Like reading this hurts because I’ve been through some version of this soooooo many times. Breaking up was a turning point in my life – everything got better. There is nothing worth holding on to.
Your first problem was agreeing to no visitors for the whole weekend and your second problem was asking her permission to have your bf over to your house. I totally would understand her not wanting a bunch of visitors but you having your bf there and not really around her should be fine as long as you still help her out as needed. I personally think she is milking it and being unreasonable.
This is not in any way normal or healthy. My partner and I each have the passwords to each others phone but we don’t ever use them to go through the messages. If one of us had concerns about the other we could bring it up and take a look but we do not just go through each others messages at will. Its a huge invasion of privacy and a very big display that she doesn’t trust you. Youve been together for three years now, if she doesn’t trust you shes never going to.

He broke up? Is he divorced/ separated, still close with his wife? Are they figuring things out? Probably kids?
You’re a dickhead. Pay the man and be grateful.

No, it's weird, he's never jealous or controlling. Something has just really struck a nerve about this situation.

Deep down you know what you have to do
Your first problem was agreeing to no visitors for the whole weekend and your second problem was asking her permission to have your bf over to your house. I totally would understand her not wanting a bunch of visitors but you having your bf there and not really around her should be fine as long as you still help her out as needed.

why dont u just do it and get it out of the way and if u enjoy it ur pleasantly surprised and if u dont u have a reason next time it comes up

I get it, that’s the ideal, but if we’re talking compromise here…
Focus on your Mother. Period. You are going to have a very rough road in front of you. I'm sorry you have to go through this.
