Caveman Circus

We have been a couple for 7 years. I only now realize we both view her very differently.

From my perspective, she’s never been interested in fashion at all. Always wears black jeans. She has dozens of black tops. She doesn’t wear makeup. Doesn’t get her nails done. Only does root touch ups. And I love her and don’t care about this at all.

From her perspective apparently, she dresses elegantly and minimalistic. She says she is always wearing “no makeup” makeup (I guess she means mascara – not sure). She says she pays the salon every month to colour her hair or it would be grey.

My wife (34F) and I (35M) have been married for 10 years and been together for 15. She is 7 months pregnant and has gestational diabetes which has been very hard on her, and by extension very hard on me too and our relationship.

Her doctor has strictly recommended she follows a strict diet, and that means no sugar or high calorie foods such as alfredo sauce, or pizza and the likes. Naturally she has been very very upset because she has cravings but there’s no way she can indulge. She has gotten sick of the alternatives suggested to her and would start sobbing sometimes when we go outside because she will see all these food places only to realise she cannot eat what she wants. I feel for her, I really do.

Yesterday, my son (25) told my wife and me that he’s cutting us out of his life, seemingly out of nowhere. He sent a long letter accusing us of being “emotionally abusive” when he was growing up. My wife and I believe in tough love, and we don’t think a family needs constant platitudes like “I love you” said out loud to function—but I feel like he’s taking this way too far.

He claims we were controlling, uninterested in his life, and dismissive of his feelings and interests. He even says he was depressed for most of his childhood because of us and that he once felt suicidal. He accused my wife of “robbing him of his childhood” because she talked to him about her emotional struggles. But we’re a family—talking and being close is part of that—and this all feels deeply unfair and, frankly, selfish.

My wife (32F) and I (33M) have been together for nearly seven years. She is the most important person in my life. She was four months pregnant with our first child.

The first three months of the pregnancy were extremely difficult. She was constantly sick, had severe morning sickness, and experienced intense mood swings—so much so that I began questioning whether I had married the right person. About a month ago, my office held a team-building dinner where there was a lot of alcohol. Afterward, one of my coworkers invited five of us back to his place. I got very drunk and made the worst mistake of my life: I slept with another coworker, Lisa (26F).

What we’re dealing with today aren’t modern women, they’re modern monsters. Women who reject femininity, reject accountability and reject the very things that make relationships work. They want all the benefits of traditional men, but none of the responsibilities of traditional women, they demand high value men while bringing nothing but attitude, entitlement and unrealistic expectations to the table, they shame women who actually wanna be wives, calling them pick mes while all at same time crying about how they can’t find a man.

I’m 24, my husband is 29, and his brother is 26. I’ve been with my husband since I was 19. I went to high school with his younger brother and ended up meeting my husband at a party after being invited through Facebook.

My husband is amazing. He works, and I stay at home. We have a good relationship. His younger brother and I have always had a great relationship too. Sometimes I had a feeling that maybe he liked me, and it turns out I was right.

A few months ago, we were watching Child’s Play on Hulu when it came out. While we were sitting together, his brother pulled me into his arms and held me, and I didn’t push away. After that, we acted like nothing had happened. I never told my husband—he and his brother are very close.
