First and foremost, ladies, please leave butthurt comments below and don’t forget to downvote.

Secondly, OP, welcome to America, bud. Fuck what’s important to you as a man. How dare you try extreme measures of communicating to someone who has clearly avoided and evaded all other forms of communication, is basically softly and indirectly stonewalling you, effectively ignoring you, and looking for license to just do whatever “she wants” in the relationship while ignoring how her partner feels and the understanding everyone had when you committed yourself to her. It sounds like she has basically broke her commitment to you, and is angry about you trying to confront her about it and get some kind of accountability from her.

Third, look, here are your choices: (a) stay, (b) leave. Leaving is not as bad as people make it out to be. You split your economic lives, you’re going to support your kids no matter what, and at least you can breathe and be happy. So, “WHY” would you stay? It’s not some hardball question for her, it’s an honest question you need to ask yourself. Are you afraid you won’t find anyone better? Are you too lazy to look for anyone better?

Basic contract law. She breached first. She has no ground to stand on here. All this other bullshit about fat shaming and videotaping nonsense is just children being defensive about drinking the PC Kool-aid. Real, no BS, she has been telling you, “Fuck you, I don’t give a fuck about you” for years. With each pound she puts on, with each snack or extra meal she eats, it’s a stab to your heart. She doesn’t see it that way (and fuck people here who clearly don’t give a fuck about YOU in this picture), but you are hurting, disrespected, and ignored. You feel abandoned.

I get it. Part of me wants to say, shame on you for letting it get that out of control. But that’s neither here nor there.

If you’re asking for permission to cheat, my father would tell you, yes. I would tell you, no. Not because we have some moral high horse dildo up our ass. But, it’s unnecessary. If you’re going to leave, then leave. If you’re going to stay, then she needs to make the effort (no BS, no excuses). If she isn’t, then YOU need to leave, period. Cheating is unnecessary, imo. Just wait until you’re separated, make it clear you’re leaving and that the two of you are done and finished, and then go ahead and fuck whoever you want. But for as long as you haven’t taken that firm stance, then that means you are still trying to work things out with her (but I get my father’s point too, which was, “if she doesn’t want to genuinely try to care about my needs, then I can still love her, but she loses the right to complain about loyalty. She isn’t committed to me, she can’t expect me to be committed to her. She abandoned me, and without shoving it in her face or looking to hurt her, I’m sorry, but I’m abandoning that very limited and apparently unimportant aspect of our relationship between me and her. I’m sorry, she has zero basis to legitimately complain.”).

If you decide to stay and try to work things out .., only because this has been going on for so long, maybe try a less “shock therapy” approach.

Tell her, look, I got you this book, I would appreciate it if you read it so we can talk about it next weekend:

If she is totally defensive and hiding behind the “fat shaming,” PC excuses and refusing to give a flying fuck about how you feel and how she’s essentially abandoned you in this relationship, then, I’m sorry, but this isn’t a relationship that’s “worth” saving.

Depression is not an excuse. When people have depression for 1 year, that’s understandable. When people have depression for 2 years, that’s still understandable. But when you go beyond two years, just doing nothing about it, not working on it, then you’re hurting everyone else around you (and SOMEWHERE in those two years, you MUST HAVE thought about that AT LEAST ONCE ... and done NOTHING about it).

Women have divorced their husband over less. So, fuck everyone else on here. You don’t need to feel an ounce of shame or guilt. Your position is 100% valid.

These are the books on my Kindle. I believe I read most of them - some I remember more than others so I may have started them but not finished.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B014G6WNIA/ref=kinw_myk_ro_title - This one was great. It told a lot about how he was feeling in the affair and why it was so hard for him to give it up.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B001E2NXBQ/ref=kinw_myk_ro_title - I loved this one.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G1IYIQM/ref=kinw_myk_ro_title - This books helped me with my relationship with my son but it also helped me understand my husband's relationship with his mother and how he was raised. She was overprotective and because of that they never had a great relationship.

> Men often need space to calm down. They retreat so that they can avoid reacting angrily or make any kind of hasty decision.

Adding to this, this book: For Women Only goes into detail about how and why men do what they do. According to the book, men like to fully think things through and being followed by their spouse (exampled in the book) makes them close down even more. It's a great and short read and may give some great insights on what men do and how and what you can do. The more you know.

Hi!

Have you looked into some books? Book list below:

  • Love Sense: The Revolutionary New Science of Romantic Relationships
  • Attachments: Why You Love, Feel, and Act the Way You Do
  • The Book of Romance: What Solomon Says About Love, Sex, and Intimacy
  • For Women Only, Revised and Updated Edition: What You Need to Know about the Inner Lives of Men
  • Hold Me Tight: Seven Conversations for a Lifetime of Love

    I have a personal favorite that I suggest you read first (is about compatibility, and you need to do your homework on anyone, which involves spending time with them..), but it is not a Christian book, but has helped me quite much in my search for my mate (at age 32 guy that has messed up and had sex with one woman, but rededicated my purity) Will Our Love Last?: A Couple's Road Map

    I have a question..How do you feel about someone who messed up, but has repented of that sexual sin, to save themself for potentially you? Is that a dealbreaker that they had sex, or is it more of a grace thing for you? It matters, because this should be a part of any character trait list you have for your ideal mate.

    I have a list as well. Here it is below:

  • Leans on Messiah whole-heartedly ***
  • Understands His Will to an extent
  • Continues to learn of Him **
  • Is able to have her own personal happiness without me
  • Loves good music
  • Can appreciate music for the intricate things in it (bonus)
  • Can sing decently (bonus)
  • Enjoys worshiping Him **
  • Can honestly laugh at just about everything
  • Is patient **
  • Can have philosophical/theological conversations without getting upset **
  • Is open-minded but guarded by Christ **
  • Is optimistic and hopeful **
  • Treats employees at restaurants with respect and tips well
  • Has had some sort of rebellion in her life already; she feels like she's over it, or is strong enough to not need one (Rare) **
  • Is physically attracted to me **
  • Is physically attractive to me **
  • Is chaste **
  • Can easily take responsibility for her actions and behaviors **
  • Can control her temper fairly easily
  • Can openly communicate without problem ***
  • Is more self-less than self-ish *****
  • Helps me be a better man

    The more asterisks mean more important/non-negotiable for me. I also have these traits, and so, have developed myself for my mate over time. I'm not perfect. I have flaws. The 3 traits I starred the most are Leans on Him, openly communicate, and selfless. I have this heart, and you must know yourself before taking this journey.

    If any clarification needed, let me know.
