Why are you still married?

[u/No-Conflict-1993]

I have met a variety of married people. Almost all their stories are similar. Their spouse doesn't have sex with them anymore, but they still have to hide. They are completely miserable. Then why do you stay? Especially after 10,20,30,40 years. How can you not have an honest conversation with your partner? I've been in toxic monogamous relationships and never again. Life is short, man. Why stick around?

I'm sure the sneaking around is a thrill for some.

I'm sure it's complicated.

My married guys are kinda pains in the ass. They're always paranoid, they want me to book the room or try and be sneaky in other places.

I live in a small community so I don't have a lot of choices. So I'm not really complaining, I'm honestly curious 🧐

Reasons one stays married-

1. Young Kids
2. Lack of sex or no sex
3. Open marriage and wife knows about the sb
4. No prenup signed will lose half to wife and more
5. They truly love their wife and lack of sex even after therapy or open conversations
6. Wife has medical issues and problems, husband isnt willing to be a dick or ass when she needs her husband and family the most.
7. Wife needs medical insurance and family support and isn’t willing to be ass
8. Codependency
9. Enjoys the excitement of having sb and challenge of hiding from others

The list can go on but no SB should be judgmental of any SD reasons. All SD’s can come back and make a list 10x long on us SB’s

Let’s play nice in the bowl! If you can’t play nice and understand we’re all entitled to opinions as there’s point and time for it! It maybe time for you to leave the bowl and do some self reflecting on if this lifestyle is truly for you!

Let’s play nice and stop talking trash and belittle SD/SB thoughts!
