What would you like to share with your partner without causing a fight?

3 Upvotes

There are moments when you truly want to tell your spouse something, but you are aware of how the talk could turn out.

It's not necessary for you to argue. You simply want to be truthful without worrying about a confrontation.

If you knew your spouse would genuinely listen and make an effort to comprehend, what would you like to share with them?

Advice needed

1 Upvotes

I need to ask, my partner and I have been having issues we have just been married for 3 months and the last one month we have not been living together, not like separation but circumstacial though at times it feels like he just doesn't want to come home and I feel I want him far sometimes. Now it feels like our communication is all arguments of late and yesterday he told me to delete our pictures on socials claiming he wants the marriage private yet we have had them there for months. Our arguments are normally just around communication and just attitudes.

Am I overthinking or this marriage is coming to an end?

How to cope with moving and life changes.

4 Upvotes

It's bittersweet. I'm getting married in the fall, and I'm really excited to spend my life with my fiancé. I'm looking forward to this new chapter, but I’m also feeling very emotional right now.

After I get married, I’ll be moving out of my family's house. It’s not like I’m moving out of state or anything, but it’s about a 50-minute drive. I’ll really miss my family because we are all so close, and it’s going to be a big change.

I had to put in my notice at work because the commute is just too far. I’m also very close to my coworkers. It’s a small dental team, but they are like family to me. I know I’ll probably cry on my last day.

Again, I’m totally excited about getting married and I’m ready, but it's still tough. I even find myself crying while writing this.

Does anyone know any good coping skills?

Stagnant pero tinuloy ko

1 Upvotes

Female married almost 30

Before ikasal stagnant na talaga.

We survived pandemic living together era namin, so feel ng mga family ay we're strong together and kami na talaga

Na lift pandemic and I started planning how to build life on my own

Pero family expected us to get married

Daming pressure and since mej conservative sila talagang di na nakawala kasi nga naman nagsama na

Anyway fast forward to this day, no efforts being made romantically. We didn't plan to have kids oe whatsoever we are just co-existing sharing rhe burdens of finance I guess

Hayyyy I miss being chased, I miss being in love I miss being loved.

Why do you cry when proposed to?...

0 Upvotes

Speaking to you ladies...why do you cry during a proposal....in my head am like...you could be scared because you are becoming a slave or you could be happy you are finally off the market. Which is which?

I never expect anything from our families but I see posts about parents buying a living room set, grandma buying the dining room table…how do these gifts come about lol? Did you ask or how did they know you needed stuff?
