Fiancee being jerk about sex

So he feels like 2 or 3 times a week is not enough for him. This weekend it was Friday and Saturday night, then told me today I played him dirty because I went in to work an hour later then I usually do in the morning because he didnt get any night before. I think if 2 times a week is not enough he must have some problem...he sometimes gets livid slamming doors in the middle of the night when I refuse. He works 2nd shift gets home about 11pm, then comes in after midnight wanting some when I have to get up at 530 am and my job involves walking outside all day and Im just exhausted. He is here in the morning with the kids they usually get up around 8 or so and he thinks he is getting less sleep then I am because of kids therefore I shouldn't get more sleep then he does. I usually am in bed no later then 10:30.

Re: Fiancee being jerk about sex

  • He's being a prick.  It's one thing to communicate with you if he feels your sex life is inadequate.  But flipping out and slamming doors... if I were you I'd put my foot in his ass.  Then give him some lube and Playboy, tell him to have at it and leave me the hell alone. 
  • Holy cow...RETHINK this person!

     ...he sometimes gets livid slamming doors in the middle of the night when I refuse.

    This is not normal behavior and this is not how full grown adults act.

    In fact, skip rethinking him and run like hell.

    The slamming doors is scary, no matter what time of day or night this is happening. This anger problem of his can very easily turn into a physical one.

    Run like hell.

    And do it TODAY.

    You have kids together?  If you've been together a long time, you should know how he is, if this is normal behavior, I would leave. If his behavior is new, maybe something's bothering him and you should talk to him about it. My DH would like to have sex twice a DAY and that's too much for me so obviously it doesn't happen, if he were to slam doors or be pissed, he'd be sitting on the curb.  

  • No one should demand sex from you.  No one should get mad when you refuse.

    Unacceptable.

  • Hoping that the kids are from a prior relationship and not conceived with this bleep --- this way, the OP can run like hell taking the kids with her and get rid of his ass in one fell swoop.

    Imagine being stuck with this pig until the last kiddo turns eighteen.:( Very sad.
  • I get being disappointed, but that is ridiculous and scary. Like PPs said, I'd run like a bat out of hell. He sounds like a time bomb waiting to explode, and you don't wanna get caught in that.

     

  • My husband and I have conflicting work schedules which leads to us having a lot less sex than either of us would like because one or the other is tired when the other is ready to go... So on one hand, I can understand the disappointment from your FI. HOWEVER, temper tantrums in the middle of the night for not getting sex is BAD NEWS BEARS. And the fact that he feels you shouldn't sleep because he thinks he doesn't sleep is ignorant and selfish. I agree... run while you still can. Marriage will just make it harder to get away.

    Bold: That's an odd thing to say....lots of people have sex more than twice a week, so does that mean that those people have problems?? Some could say that having sex only twice per week is a problem. If he was wanting sex like twice per day, every day of the week, then I'd agree with you that maybe he has a problem.

    Italic: Thats very strange behavior. My H gets cranky if I turn him down, which sometimes is for good reason (tired, have to get up early) but he doesn't get violent.

    Have you and your H ever talked about the frequency of sex each of you want to have and maybe come to some kind of compromise?

    No, you run like hell.

    And he's in a pissing match with you too over who gets the most sleep?


    Why do you want this piece of garbage???

    He has to be doing irreparable damage to the kids -- why do you find it acceptable for them to have this shithead as a father figure?
  • Well after last night when he was grabbing my phone and looking through it and then pinned my wrists together to keep my phone from me I am done! I am now staying at my parents because he won't move out. Which I can't force him because he is on the lease.
  • Oh it gets even better.  Seriously, stay away from this guy, DO NOT speak with him, DO NOT give him a chance to crawl his sorry ass back into your life.  Stick with it.  He's a creep, a total loser, a shitty father and husband.  He's gross.

    Yikes.

    Thank your lucky stars you were done a favor.

    Keep safe and keep well. I hope he doesn't know where you are.

    wonder if lover boy i8s back and wedding is going on or op got real smart real quick

     I too and wondering if OP is really going to leave him. I recognized her name from a wedding post on TK....the wedding was apparently called off on July 20th-ish and from then on, she's been posting WR stuff on TK (asking for limo recommendations etc) so I'm guessing her leaving this guy is just temporary, and she will probably go back to him since she's done that in the past...which is unfortunate since clearly they should not be getting married.

    yeah no surprise there..im actually doubting it all at this moment

    why if you cancelled a july 20th wedding...would you need limo recs? even if the pushed back the date...wouldnt she have already known this type of info since original date was so close?

  • Yes the wedding is CANCELLED. I called the photographer and the DJ so far. I am staying with my parents until he leaves our apartment. I don't want to see him at all and the child support papers are going in the mail tomorrow.
  • Ok, so his behavior in response to being shut down sexually is certainly not acceptable.  Throwing a hissy fit is never constructive.  But try to understand this from another perspective and you may reconsider how you may be sending him negative signals.  Men have a significant amount of importance in the quality and frequency of our sex, especially in marriage.  This is how we communicate and reciprocate love, affection, passion and romance.  Often, as I can surmise by his behavior, men lack the verbal acumen to express our loving sentiments to you out loud, and hearing how much you love us does not have the same impact as you showing us, through the act of sexual expression.  He may be getting a signal that you don't enjoy sex with him all that much and are not bothered to have it because it's not very good.  This is devastating for a man to consider because we have a great deal of our emotional health tied to the kind of positive feeback we get from our partners.  If you are fine with one or two times a week, but he wants more, you are totally wrong for shaming him for wanting more and saying he must have a problem if he wants more sex.  That approach is wrong and you should reconsider your thought process because it will become a harmful situation if he feels that his sexual appetite is a problem for you.  Be open to compromise and consider that he is not wanting sex just to have a place to ejaculate.  This is a loving act for many men and when our partners express reluctance to enjoy and participate in that with us, it sends the message that something is wrong with us, that we're not attractive, not skilled sexually or somehow inadequate.  A man who believes his partner thinks he is inadequate is going to find someone who appreciates him.
