Husband online habits

I realize my husband won't stop looking at woman on the Internet from reels to porn. I don't like that he watches it we argued about it for years. And lies about it says he doesn't watch it but when I look at his phone it's nothing but half naked girls on his reels it's only reels the long videos he watches his gaming, sports cars mechanical things etc. the strange part is it doesn't change the way he feels about me he still compliments me we still have sex he comes on to me I wish he came on to me more though but what I'm saying is it's not like his behavior is changing I just don't like the simple fact that he's watching woman online yet when we went to wild waves he was tripping about my bathing suit saying i Iook to sexy and he doesn't want men seeing all my goods meaning my body. Don't get me wrong he's a provider he helps around the house he supports me he's not a bad man I just can't stand him watching those girls it makes me feel like he's getting tired of me or losing attention we have 4 kids together been married for 13 years I don't understand why he has to watch girls what do I do he knows how I feel already so what am I supposed to do

Ill start by saying ive felt like this myself, and honestly its something YOU have to work through. You cant forever guarentee he'll never look at another woman online. Ive had 10 years of therapy & ive grown to the point that as long as my husband isnt talking to these women or cheating on me, i dont care if he looks at women online. He can love you and think hot women are attractive. To expect him to ONLY look at u and only feel the hots for u for the rest of his life is just unrealistic. And setting urself up for failure. U need to work through ur insecurities & not hound him for it. Get to a place of peace or you'll only drag yourself into more misery.

Are we saying like he’s saving reels of half naked women or his fyp/feed is all that?

I feel like this comes down either to a lack of respect for your emotional feelings/request or an obsession with other women to the point of willing to disrespect you. Or a bit of both. He may still be a “great man” but he seems to not be able to not to the one thing that really upset you.

But I also agree with above that sometimes it’s a us thing too. Like I don’t personally mind it just being on his pages, not much control to that, whatever, and I have no insecurity of him doing something with them or trying to.

But I’d also just be pissed off if I asked my husband to repeatedly not do something and he insisted on doing it 😅

It sounds like you need to figure out what you really want. It's rude of him to know your boundary but ignore it. So im not sitting here saying he's a good guy. But how important is it that you feel uncomfortable with him looking? I guess what im trying to get at is either leave him because he doesn't respect you and will continue or seek therapy as to how to be able to move past his looking because sadly it doesn't seem hes going to stop.

I honestly think he has a addiction. He looks at those girls everyday!! Big booty girls. It's so played out. And yeah that's the frustrating part he swears up and down he doesn't watch it but I know he does. It's not important enough for me to divorce but it is important for me to step back some. He's never going to stop. I can see if it was once in awhile that's not the problem it's everyday. Like the first comment said I guess I just need to reevaluate myself at this point.

I think thats a great idea. I definitely agree with what she said. So since you want to stay with him work on yourself. However you see fit. 😊 I hope it works out for you 😊

I dont think it means you need to work on yourself to learn how to accept it, like some others have said. You have said it feels like an addiction, and thats because IT IS. I have a background in counseling and you are 100% correct that looking that often and lying about it IS AN ADDICTION. Youre not the one who needs to change. Masturbation can be normal and healthy, but a man that looks at reels every single day is preoccupied with sex. The fact that he also got upset with you for wearing a swim suit also shows he gives you zero freedom to wear a bathing suit, but then expects unlimited freedom to mentally masturbate to as many woman as he can possibly find. Thats a weak man. Thats an addicted man. Youre not wrong for having normal and valid feelings.

Porn is an addiction. If he’s a keeper, see if he’s willing to do some even telehealth therapy to work on stopping. This will take understanding from you that just because he’s getting help and hasn’t for awhile doesn’t mean he won’t again. You will need to decide where your level of acceptance is and what you’re willing to do before asking him to do anything.

Please read!! I need an outsiders perspective. Am I being paranoid??

I picked up my daughter from nursery, and on the way home she pulled her pants down in public, turned around and showed me her anus by pulling apart her buttocks. I was shocked so snapped at her to pull her pants up. I apologised straight away and said I had just had a bad day a work. I then calmly asked who taught her to do that, and she said X. She has mentioned X many times before but I always assumed X was a child. So I asked is X a child or a teacher, and she said a teacher. I said is X a man or woman, she said woman. I said where did she teach you that and she said “in the bedroom”, and I said the nursery doesn’t have a bedroom, and she said “they do upstairs”. The nursery is in a large Victorian house, but I’ve never seen the rooms upstairs, so have no idea if this is true or not, but I don’t think nurseries have bedrooms?

Anyway, I said what else did X do and my daughter opened her mouth and stuck her tongue out and began licking her lips round and round. I’ve never seen her do something like that before. She then said X bounced her bum on her leg. I was kneeling down at the time to speak to her and she turned around and sat on one of my legs with her legs either side and bounced on my legs and said “like this”.

My daughter does tell lies, but not like this, this was really strange. She was getting annoyed with my questions so I stopped and called my partner. He phoned the manager straight away but it’s Friday so her phone was off and the nursery was closed, so he sent a message.

I can’t stop thinking about what she has said. I feel like I can’t put her back into that nursery until I find out why she is saying these things? Have your children ever said anything like this? I’m hoping someone says yes and this is all just some kind of mistake. Maybe it’s something strange children say and this is just me being too much and paranoid? What do you think?

Just a rant really

Today I made a passing comment to my partner regarding a bloke who come to measure up our garden doors to be replaced and said “it’s nice to see a man wearing a wedding ring cover to wear his ring in work” as I know from working with some men in the past they take it off if there’s woman around. More as a freshing thing to see if that makes sense and it come up mid argument it was more of a compliment to the bloke which tipped my partner over the edge saying “oh so we’re on different pages now dishing out compliments to people’ which I said no, I didn’t comment on his looks or that o wanted to sleep with the bloke but he just saw red and said I have to wreck things when they are going good and fuck things up even though I said it’s completely innocent and meant nothing behind it. And stop being such a fuck up. Obviously I know now to keep my mouth shut and I do have an awkward way of explaining things I always have done.
It’s now been 5 hours and he’s barely talked to me

Would you move nurseries?

Looking for some advice. My LG is 16 months and has been going to nursery since she was 11 months old. She took a while to settle, does still cry going in but once she’s in, she has a good day.

However, recently they had an ofsted inspection, which resulted in the nursery manager leaving and them sending an email saying the result isn’t what they expected but official result hasn’t been published yet.

We have also moved so the journey to nursery is now 25 each way instead of 10, which isn’t a lot but I have to go back on myself after dropping her at nursery to get to work.

I don’t know whether to move her because she is settled and the staff are amazing with her.

Have you ever felt you needed to dress up or alter your appearance in order to be taken seriously in something non job related?

Examples would be

The doctor
The hospital
Your children's school
Anything legal (like filing a police report)
Child care facilities and other child service providers

Baby Blues??

Hi, I have a 4 week old baby boy and feel so lucky that he’s here. I feel guilty saying it, but the slow days are just not what I’m used to and I’m finding myself missing work and panic at the thought of so much time off. I’ve found myself in tears quite a few times, which I know sounds ridiculous. We’ve been going out on walks, visiting family etc, and I know we’ll do more and more as he gets a little older. Has anyone else felt this way, is it normal to miss things you did before baby?

Bf cheated… opinion on his logic?

My boyfriend cheated many times, and I kept forgiving him and today I asked to see his phone and he said no and I said if he didn’t show me I’d leave. He refused, so I left. Now he’s freaking out because he thought he was calling my bluff but I said if he couldn’t show me his phone then I can’t trust him. He keeps calling begging me to come back saying he didn’t do anything wrong, but I told him he refused to be transparent when I needed clarity. He says I’m being dramatic and he just didn’t want us to turn into those couples who constantly check each others phone. I just want another opinion.
