Does anyone else feel like they’ve lost their best friend (partner) things aren’t the same of course but I miss him even though he’s there.
He’s very tired and irritable, hot with the heat and closed off

Yep, hear you, we try to have a cwtch at night when LO is asleep but there is definitely a difference, makes me very sad 😔

It won’t last for ever!!! I was the same with our first, takes time for everyone to adjust!!! Me and my husband have just had our second and we are the way we have always been this time around. We realised we are a team and the little ones are against us 😂

I did feel this with my first, its much better this time round. Just remember that you have both gone through this massive change in your lives and it is exhausting, you as the mother have had a massive hormone drop, I believe dad's testosterone also has had a drop, you're both sleep deprived. Give it some time, be patient and you'll get through it 🥰

Friend !!!??

Everybody keeps saying they want a best friend/mom friend but don't put in the work sometimes. I really want to find that friend but I'm not going to keep double texting people that don't respond to me. I'm still searching for my person. WYA?! 😊

Please help me help my friend

My friends husband cheated on her. She decided to stay married but is triggered everytime he does something she doesn't like (understandable, she is still healing) but she decided that she's not going to do anything for him anymore, like the biggest example I have is that she doesn't really cook for him anymore.

I feel like if you are married you do as you are biblically called to do as a husband and a wife Ephesians 5:21-33
Even when things are good between them she doesn't want to do as she was before. She feel highly unappreciated and disrespected by her husband and feels that he no longer deserves these things that a wife does.
It feels wrong to me. I feel like if you remain as husband and wife then you should do as husband and wife.
What do you think? Do you have any biblical wisdom that I can use to help my friend? Or maybe I'm the one that needs help, because maybe I'm in the wrong for the way that I'm thinking?
I really want to help my friend and her husband, they are like family to me.
