It doesn't really mean anything. These situations are very complicated. I'd say if you're here, your situation is serious.

How are things going?

I've been dbing like crazy. No arguments or R talk for a week. We're having sex daily and she suggested a getaway trip 2 months from now. She at times says I trigger her emotions so I just redirect and avoid R talk

Well if she says you trigger her emotions, that is a golden opportunity to connect with her by validating her feelings.

W: "When you said let's clean up it reminded me of the old, controlling Scott"
Scott: "I get that." OR "I can see how that would make you feel that way"

Glad to hear you're getting laid! Make sure to take care of her emotionally and in the bedroom.

Haha you are such a typical man!

Be an extraordinary man, maybe even drink a Dos Equis now and again.

I feel so damn stupid. I got sucked into R talk and ended up crying pleading. I'm so disgusted with myself. At the end of conversation she said she wants to go on a date with me this weekend, but I know it's not authentic. This DB stuff is so hard. I could easily go pick up other women if I wanted to but its against my moral compass as a married man. Resentment and anger are taking over me right now.

Well, you screwed up. So what? Everyone screws up sometimes. Pick yourself up. Move forward. You know you messed up. Own it and learn from it.

But you can never plead again. Ever.

Also, this weekend? You should have zero expectations about it. None. Not good. Not bad. Not neutral. Just NO expectations.


Save yourself. Nobody is coming!
