My wife is a couple months pregnant and has a hematoma which means she cannot have sex and is put on modified best rest. She can do most everything as normal except lifting or exercising. My question is this. I have a very high sex drive and she doesn't. Since this news she has pleasured me maybe 6 to 8 times in the last 5 weeks. She told me tonight that until she is realeased from her medical thing that I should just take care of myself if needed. She said that she doesn't want me getting frustrated waiting for her to do something to me. Am I being insensitive to her or is she holding way too much power?
Re: Is this fair
Your wife has a medical condition, and she is also pregnant.
And you're concerned that she's weilding power.
Mister, are you kidding me? Truly and honestly: are you kidding me?
She is right: DIY!
And I cannot stand that "I have a high sex drive and she doesn't..." it's like you're bragging or she's trying to slight you or she's not good enough for you or something.
DIY.
And until she's given the medical go ahead for you to get "the real thing", keep DIY.
You sound like an ass hole. Seriously you are complaining about lack of sex when your wife has been ordered to take it easy? I'd take pride in beating the hell out of you for this post if I ever met you.
And don't think I don't have a comparable story since my wife has HPV I've endured a couple laser surgeries and the last thing on my mind while she is recovering is how I'm going to get myself off. You should be focused on helping her around the home and picking up te things she does to make her recovery easier and less stressful. The only thing I can see you are providing is selfishness. I suggest you unplug your head from your butt and figure out what a marriage is really about. I can give you a hint, it's not all about sex.
I truly hope she dumps you and soon your sorry excuse for a man.
But, hey, ROFL, we still didnt' answer his question..."is it fair...".
The vastness of the stupidity and selfishness of some people never ceases to amaze me. Hey, buddy: how about showing some CONCERN for your wife and future child...and all you're worrying about is whre your next lay is coming from.
Disgraceful.
Personally, I hope she never goes within a hemisphere of you ever again.
Yeah, what they said. OMG there are no words for this post!
By the one dramatic filled post I am guessing your just trolling around because your bored.
But to amuse you yea you are being unfair.
Ok...I will bite.
Lets assume you are not a total a**....and that you are asking a legit question.
I understand that this can be frustrating for you...but right now I think the issue is her health and the health of your baby. I think that this isn't about her 'power' ---this is about you being helpful and caring.
and YES this might mean you are left to internet porn and your own creative right hand.
No matter how frustrated you get....do NOT take it out on her. This will pass and things will go back to normal, now is the time for you to be supportive and sensitive.
Make a pregnancy ticker
DIY, that is what I do as needed, I also tend to have a high sex drive most of my life and I always DIY as needed.
Also, your wife is under doctor's orders to restrict certain things to keep your child safe until delivery. Sorry, but in this case you are the one that is being insensitive to both your wife and your child. When you become a father, you will have to modify your behavior to set a good example for your child. It takes at least 18 years to get this right. It is best if you start now.
I am currently learning all about raising a child since mine is 18 months old and I have a very high sex drive myself.
