      in another story, OP's ex GF cheated on him with his brother and since OP was kinda the blacksheep of his family because they were all into sport while he was into archery (and they didn't consider that a real sport somehow, the stuff is in the olympics by the way) they all took his brother's side and he left, they lied to the family about the situation telling OP was the one cheating on her, the brother and the ex got married and all was good for them, OP was no contact.
      he was surprised when they contacted him out of the blue to apologise and invite him to thanksgiving
      but the rich grandpa found out and told the whole bunch to apologise to OP and bring him to the next thanksgiving or they'd be cut out of the will, he didn't come, they were cut out, the grandpa tried to contact OP to make buddy buddy with him but since grandpa was also an asshole in his own way, OP flipped him off too.
      so maybe someone found out and pressured them into making peace with OP or being cut out ...

      Traditional wife here! We exist, but no, we don't care how you live your life. If the husband realized he's not fulfilled by a non traditional wife, he should have talked to her. Not berated her for not living up to his changing expectations. She has every right to not be on board. Therefore, parting ways may be for the best. I'm biased in the fact that traditional roles make my marriage and family so happy. That's why some women are so eager for everyone to want this lifestyle.

    • @RosyBibliophile

      I'm sure everyone agrees there is nothing wrong with a woman who chooses to be a traditional wife. However, trying to change a partner to be "ideal" in their eyes is wrong.
      This story is super sad. Her former sweet loving husband is already with another woman, which I feel he might have been doing this to get her to divorce him. He might regret it later on but that's his own grave to dig.

    • @balazsfoldes4700
      @balazsfoldes4700 Před 6 měsíci +33

      People have no idea what traditional means. My great-grandparents were traditional. They both worked from dawn to dusk, in the fields. The man did the more physically demanding stuff, like plowing, harvesting, digging and the woman did the finicky, time consuming stuff, like picking the weeds, or stringing up peppers to dry. Yes, the woman did cook, until the kids were old enough to take that stuff over (i.e. they were 9 yrs old). By 9, all kids were fully autonomous and by that age, they would have to be a net contributor to the household.
      People get their ideas about traditional marriage form 1950s advertisements of the American dream, basically, when the USA was comparatively so insanely rich that they could live off of barely any work, because every other economy was demolished in WW2. That pretty much never happened anywhere else on Earth at any time in history.

      This story was upsetting, in that it appears that the butthole got what they wanted, albeit with another woman. I'm hoping that since he couldn't afford to sole-support his prior family, that along with his child support payments his new one fails - although that's a bit sad for the new wife, who sounds relatively innocent (allegedly post separation).

    If you have a “traditional” household the husband is supposed to take care of his wife. He is supposed to lift her up, provide her emotional and physical needs. He works longer hours if need be so she can afford to run the household smoothly like she would at a job outside of the home. No woman who desires to stay at home should allow the “leader” of the household to be a spineless weakling who would idolize other women and tear down his wife. Whoever you marry and whatever kind of relationship you have, you’re supposed to love and support your partner like they’re your best friend. If one of the people decide they want to fantasize about someone else and verbally shame you then that relationship should end there. He wanted a doormat. Let him have one, it’s of no real loss to you.

    The Divorce due to Trad Wife content: As soon as OP started describing what was happening, my thought was "awe crap, he was red pilled." I didn't hit a center bullseye, but I sure got the outer bullseye. I wish OP the best. I would argue that if he wants tradition so much, he should have no problem paying a ton of alimony.

    I had that celebrity that I would joke with my husband was my “free pass”. I joked about it mostly because I knew it would never happen.
    But one night I had a very detailed dream where I developed a connection with this celebrity and came very close to cheating with him before I suddenly remembered that we’re both married.
    I woke up crying because I felt SO guilty.
    The dream was so detailed that for a day or so the emotional connection this celebrity and I had forged felt almost real.
    I told my husband about the dream and apologized, but he just laughed and held me. He thought it was cute that I was so apologetic over a dream.
    He, of course, said I had nothing to apologize for, but after that I stopped joking around about “free pass” celebrities.

      This is why I'm openly polyamorous. We discuss and agree on the terms of our relationship. We both take it seriously when we discuss it. It means we don't need to keep secrets or be ashamed. If we want to do something, we discuss it with our partner, knowing that our partners will take what we say seriously and respond as such.

My Nana never worked outside the home but my grandfather appreciated everything she did, took her on fabulous vacations, showered her with love and referred to her as The Boss. They married in 1942. I never saw my Nana wearing a dress and jewellery while tending to chores or cooking. She’d dress up for holidays but had her apron on! They, along with my da raised me and I learned so many wonderful things from them. I worked until my husband and I had our children. We wanted to raise our children. Yes, it was tough at times but I feel so blessed that I was able to be a stay at home mum. My husband would take over when he got home to give me some quiet time and always thanked me for his clean underwear and socks. He still thanks me for making his dream come true of owning his own company. I took our kids to school in my robe and pjs 😂! I stayed in the car but it was fabulous not being up at daft o’clock to be dressed with war paint on to just go home and clean. I did start contracting work once our kids were older but always made sure child care was taken care of and meals were prepped before I left. We’re in our 50’s now and that money is OUR fun, travel money! My husband still says to this day that the money he’s made is OUR’s. I adore my husband so much.

    Cheating = end of the relationship. No ands, ifs or buts about it. No exceptions. There might be forgiveness, but the trust is forever gone, and without trust, there can't be a relationship.
    I've been reading a lot of cheating stories lately, and the pattern is always the same: the cheater has zero accountability and doesn't care about the consequences of the cheating until they get caught, at which point they go full damage control/emotional manipulation mode, always with the same excuses:
    "It was a mistake, a moment of weakness!"
    "It was just physical, you're the only one I love!"
    "I'm a horrible person, please forgive me!"
    "I was unhappy in this relationship and needed this! Please understand!"
    "We can fix this! I'll do anything you want, just give me another chance!"
    They still don't care about the partner they cheated on, only about the life stability and security they're about to lose. Disgusting.

    Bottom line is: A poly-amorous/open relationship is something that's agreed upon from the start of your relationship. If your partner asks/demands for it when you've already been in a committed relationship with them for a while, it's clear that they just want a free pass to cheat.

    Story 2 is the EXACT reason why I will NEVER have any social media outside of CZcams or LinkedIn, and will continue to deny my girlfriend urging me to download it. I don't hate tiktok, but I refuse to get roped into its insanity, because I already get enough of that from CZcams.

      I downloaded tiktok for the first time last year, and a few weeks before the end of the year I removed it. It was too easy to lose track of time when using it, and a bunch of whiny bratty 16yos invaded the comment sections of content creators of the hobby community I'm in. It got on my nerves.
      I don't think most people would be brainwashed into changing their life completely like OPs ex did. But there have been stories where one partner falls into some sort of content rabbit hole (podcasts, specific yt channels, etc) and does exactly that. Or gets new friends and they change his whole world view.

    My *MOM* back in the 80s, in the short period of time she was married to my dad, caught the eye of one of ALICE COOPER's bandmates during a concert. He got her name but that was it. A few days after the concert has had TRACKED HER DOWN AND CALLED HER to see if she wanted to go on a date. SHE DECLINED. And then she flexed like a mofo… and yes, I do realize the irony of calling my own mom a mofo, but she was the one who taught me what irony meant and taught us the Alanis Morissette's ironic was anything but, so she would be proud 😋.
    Not even a year later my mom and dad hated eachother and my dad was convinced she was likely cheating. Not to the point of a call out or anything, more like a "yeaaaah, she was probably cheating on me." I wouldn't have put it past her, but only she and any potential partner would know, and she took it to the grave. She was absolutely stunning and a badass. Not ready to be a mom yet to my full blood brother, but I'm pretty sure my half siblings had a great childhood.
    A few years before she was taken by cancer, we had buried our differences and were really great friends. I miss her dearly.

    Ruined wedding: Assuming it's a true story, they got what they deserved. Instead of rubbing the relationship in OP's face, the cousin should have asked a family member to relay the news to OP in a factual "just so you know" manner, rather than a "be happy for me!" manner. Also include a mention that he's not going to act clueless by inviting OP to the wedding when he knows how he hurt OP and that OP wouldn't want to attend/support their relationship. Basically apologizing and making it clear that he knows that he ruined things between them, that's he's sorry about that, and he doesn't want to make it seem like he's trying to hide the wedding. By doing that, he'd be apologizing for how things happened, and acknowledging OP's hurt and resentment. Instead, he showed, once again, that he doesn't care about OP's feelings. What a rotten cousin.

    The one thing I want to know is do these guys who believe that women should be "traditional wives" work jobs that can support a family on a single income? Because let's be honest, it's become pretty common nowadays for families to be dual income because either neither person makes enough money to support the household on their own or realistically only one of you needs to work, but that would require a lifestyle change due to other stop working. So, if you can afford to support a family, then congrats, go find yourself a "traditional wife" if it's really that important to you. If you can't, then don't act surprised when your partner doesn't want to quit their job or you realize you can't support your family on your income alone.

    NO NO NO NO.
    as someone who is poly, witb also poly partners, we did NOT force eachother into any of this. Before my girlfriend got with hwr lther boyfriend, we talked about jt. I said i was ok with it! I knkw she loves us both so im not jealous.
    When my boyfriend cknfessed to me, i talked about it with ny girlfriend, completely ready to turn him down - even if i had feelings for him - if she asked me to. She gave me the go ahead, and now we're together!
    Th point is, everyone needs to ve kk with it. No one shoulf be forced in a poly relationship. If its your thing, that's great! Lovely! If its nkt, stjll great!
    The point is communication. If not everyone is ok witb it its just cheating, hiding behind a label.
    It just pisses me off how people use thr label of a lovely community to mask how awful they are.

    11:18 this behavior is the same as people telling you you must be gay (or straight) when youre not and forcing themselves or their friends on you because youre not the kind if straight (or gay) person they imagine youre supposed to be, or one they can understand. Reading books to be open minded is for acceptance of others, not for forcing into your life. If you arent of that persuasion, then you know youre not and the relationship ends right there. You dont need to read anything, you know your orientation and stuff, generally. And never need someone to tell you who you are.

    Polyamory so rarely ever succeeds. I have a friend who's polyamorous, he swore to me that he loves both his partners equally, but I got messages from someone who's friends with both of us saying he's only in love with one of them and uses the other essentially as a toy.
    I knew it from the start, odds are the reason he tried to convince me polyamory meant equal love for all partners is just cause I told him I hate it, and that all you're doing is using someone to get you off when the other isn't around, and that's not love at all.

The fact that OP's pain was so bad they haven't been able to let it go for years and even taking revenge hasn't really diminished the hurt and anger is just very, very sad.
    I hope OP can find a way to truly move on eventually

      Betrayal of that extent doesn’t just go away over time. Hence OP going NC. He loved both of these people deeply and that shattered him. It’s much like grief, it has no time frame. Therapy helps immensely, but sometimes the experience hits you again like it just happened and it’s excruciating. The cousin and his wife got exactly what they asked for and deserved. PTSD is not something you “get over”. It’s something you learn to deal with in therapy with tools to guide you through.

  • @Amarianee

    Yeah, no. CZcams celebrities are not "celebrity exceptions." There's a VERY big difference between a CZcamsr and a movie or tv star/famous musician. The whole point of a "celebrity exception," is that the probability of getting with them is so astronomical that it's really not something to worry about. The probability of being able to DM a popular CZcamsr, let alone meet them, is significantly different. CZcamsrs have meet and greets, the majority of them often answer their fan messages, and their fame is just not the same. She was a manipulator just finding an excuse to cheat.

  • @codahighland
    @codahighland Před 6 měsíci +1

    I have to give OP in the first story a small bit of advice: She DID try to tell you, and instead of saying something about it, you gave her a response that seemed to her that you would have done the same thing. And a celebrity hookup isn't "love" -- there isn't an emotional connection, and it doesn't say anything about how she feels about OP. But on OP's side, I also entirely understand why he would still feel hurt. This was a case of miscommunication, at heart, and it really shouldn't be relationship-ending. Because frankly, having sex with someone else without love is a lot less bad than loving someone else even if you never have sex.
    My wife has told me about her exception. Neither of us think it's ever going to happen, and I don't think she'd actually go through with it if she ever did have a chance, but honestly, if she did? I'd be happy for her. Maybe a little jealous, but jealous OF her for getting to do it.
    (The only celebrity crush I've ever had was on a fictional character, when I was a teenager. Obviously, that's never going to happen.)

She might not have gotten to say "thinks" but I'm sure the mom knows she saved her daughter from beyond the grave.

    Last story: my parents helped me in a similar way. My ex was the same age as me but my interactions with him and my behavior made them notice something was wrong years before I did. They preferred to always be a place of security for me and not give unrequited, imperial advice into my relationship; to let my choices be my own. I dated him for 6 years and spend 1 year engaged. But then when I finally changed my view on him to what was actually happening, they were so ready for me to dump him, saying things like "you know, in any case, breaking up is a lot more easier to get over with than a divorce". It was so funny, and also reassuring for me that they let me actually understand things on my own instead of depriving me of a few bad experiences in life and likely making me resent them.
    Because that's what you do to people who genuinely love you when you're too deep into a really bad relationship without realizing it.

    I've always made it clear that the whole "celebrity exception" thing isn't something I'll even joke about. I've worked as an extra on major movie sets and it becomes painfully apparent that celebrities are just regular people and the notion of sleeping one isn't some impossible, unattainable goal. I actually had a fight with an ex literally because one of her "exceptions" was literally someone I'd met and worked with. The exceptions for celebrities thing is always a joke until it's not.

  • @SergioBicerra
    @SergioBicerra Před 6 měsíci +1

    Related to story 1 ('Don't know what to di, I love her so much): If your partner does something wrong, really really bad like cheating, do you still love then? Like, many many people love Keanu Reeves, but what if you find out he's done questionable things, would you still admire him or think 'Damn, I was wrong, f this dude'. So the difference is you both admire your partner and Keanu, BUT you've invested time, energy, love, tears and laughts with your partner so, in my opinion, you don't love them anymore, but what saddens you is all what you've thrown to that relationship and may not get back.

  • @FoolMisinfo

    Going "traditional" will never be what so many people thought or expect it to be, there's no one side upper over the other kind of thing, just like another commenter said here, a "traditional" husband is a "leader" but is NOT a "boss" of the marriage, there's a huge difference between these two concepts a leader doesn't only provide great wealth and expectations, they also provide support and understanding to their partner ,even possible solutions and compromise, a "boss" doesn't do any of this, just great wealth and expectations, that's why some 'traditional' marriages fail to be balanced.
    The same thing can happen when the dynamic is changed or are of equal sex, you're to support and provide comfort to each other.

  • @panickinglesbian1111
    @panickinglesbian1111 Před 6 měsíci +2

    I totally understand that multiple partners isn't everyone's cup of tea and that it should never be forced but "half poly" is a thing, ambiamorous. Someone that's content with having one partner or multiple partners with little to no preference. Sometimes I dislike negative polyam stories because it gives more hate to polyam people, again I totally know it's not everyone's thing but it just hurts.
    Edit: This isn't to say OP should go against their boundaries to please their partner. If they aren't comfortable with a polyam/open relationship then that's totally understandable, forcing it is only going to make them hurt. I had an awful experience with an ex who identified as polyam but that's because she never talked to me. It's not like I wanted to know the ends and outs of every single thing her and her partner(s) were talking about but I just wanted to know the other person. I'm in far better relationships now because we communicate. Also it helps my first girlfriend already identified as ambiamorous herself when I was figuring out if I also identified with the label so it's not like I was randomly throwing it on her, I'd told her I was thinking I might be ambi and she said to figure things out. Her and my other girlfriend are friends :)
