He started the affair because the wife was medically unable to have sex for a while. The kinks materially do not matter because they were just a post facto rationalization, and if he ever brought them up with his wife there’s a risk she’d be okay with them and thus wreck his rationale and force him to confront his guilt. Y’know at least until he comes up with a new rationalization.

Notice the admission comes right as he finds out about her cheating and he’s suddenly of the mind that cheating is not cool.

I love seeing the cool, logical mister "I've got my very good reasons, everyone else is just overemotional" type get increasingly agitated and self-destructive as emotions overwhelm them.

Anybody who self describes as "rational" is entirely ruled by their emotions. Ascribing your actions to logical reasoning is just a way to always feel like you're right and never have to learn to moderate your actions for the sake of others.

AITA for telling my fiance that he has to choose between me and his family ?

quote:

I (19F) am engaged to my wonderful fiance (20M) and we're planning to have our wedding in April. People from the outside may consider us too young to be marrying already, but we've been dating for almost 5 years, so I'm confident in my decision. Two days ago, however, his older sister (26F) announced that she's pregnant. I was fumming after hearing this and went off on her about could she get pregnant when our wedding is right around the corner, in a time where she would be totally showing and thus stealing the spotlight from me. She said that she and her husband have been trying for a baby for over a year already and that she's gonna try to find a dress to hide her pregnancy at the wedding, but I didn't buy her act and told her that I know what she's doing and I'm not gonna let her upstage me during my biggest day and so I uninvited her on the spot. She and my future MIL went ballistic on me and that told me that I'm overreacting and that I'm acting like a petulant child. I wasn't surprised to see them gang up on me, they never really liked me to begin due to my Romanian origins ( despite living in their country for most of my life ) and thus not being worthy enough for their son/brother. I just told my future MIL that if she's gonna take her daughter's side, she can consider herself univinted from the wedding as well.

When I got home, my fiance tried talking me down of my decision, saying that we can't just leave his family out of the wedding ( he's always been a mama boy, so it was to be expected ) and told him that I already univinted my own parents for continuously trying to convince me to not get married at such a young age and I'm very thin ice with my 3 brothers, so I'm definitely not playing and nobody is indispensable from our wedding, not even his family. We started arguing for a bit and told him very clearly that he now has to choose between me and his family and if he chooses them, then the wedding will be off. He hasn't brought up the subject since, but he's also been very quiet since then. Almost everyone I'm totally overreacting and I've gone crazy, but all I'm asking for is for people to stop trying to disrepect or ruin my wedding, which they keep failling to do. My sister is so far the only one who's on my side and completely supports my decision in uninviting my future SIL and MIL, saying that if my fiance ends up choosing them over me, then he's not worthy of me anyway, which I completely agree with. Granted, I think I need some unbiased opinions to see if I'm in the wrong or not, so Reddit, AITA ?

Yup, it's this. It was...interesting.

Inre: being fancy at cousin's wedding, I did a mental stumble when the prom dress was mentioned because my definition of prom dress is very firmly rooted in early-2000s notions of a massive fancy gown with petticoats and a matching shawl. Which would most definitely not be appropriate. But I'm assuming this is a more modern style where it's closer to a cocktail dress.

Is it really so hard to just not gently caress somebody else? Like if you love your partner and don't want to hurt them, can't you just gently caress them instead of some random skank/fuckboi?

Like even if they're not available and you're really horny, why not just have a quick wank, as opposed to loving a stranger and nuking the relationship?

I dunno guys, these affair things seem really dumb and bad to me. Does anybody get why they're so popular?

I don't quite understand taking the wife's name in relation to marriage. I totally understand not taking the husband's name and in fact me and my ex wife didn't change either of our names and it worked out very well since we got divorced but I've never understood taking the wife's name. If you think it's bad to get rid of your identity by taking on your husband's name why is it good for him? Unless you're on the run or don't want to get searched, but I imagine that's a very small amount of people. Im also not saying it's wrong, I'm genuinely curious as to why you would do it.

Pick your name, pick their name, mash the two together or some up with something new. Use whatever you want for professional purposes.

But an awful lot of society is built around the assumption that families will share the same family name, and if you mess with that assumption then you are going to have endless grief.

I'll let you guys in on a secret queer people have figured out, and which infuriates many parents and 'dynasty builders', which is that you can name yourself whatever you like. it just takes a small fee and whatever paperwork your jurisdiction requires.

this is particularly satisfying bc you got these parents thinking their whole life that Pnurtis Billbo is gonna do the comphet thing, have a kid and carry on the family name, and then Pnurtis becomes Phoenix Flight building a family of lil' Flights and everyone flips their poo poo.

end dynasties, create your own. Be Scank-McCool, the most awesome ska dancer there ever was.

I have no idea why people do it in the west, but in Japan a lot of men do it if they are a second son and their father in law has no sons, so they get to inherit the land and the family business. Why the name change is necessary is probably patriarchy.

There are a lot of advantages to having the same name as your children, parents who don't often have to prove their guardianship at schools, hospitals, etc. And even for a spouse, there are examples where one partner ends up incapacitated and the other doesn't have documentation that they're married immediately available.

You can work around all of that, but it's definitely a convenience and worth at least considering/discussing.

My wife hyphenated because when I was a lot younger it mattered to me, and hyphenation was a compromise that left us both a little dissatisfied. We have both chilled out since then, but she has said she’s actually glad she hyphenated over just keeping her name since we have kids, because they have my last name. If she had a different last name the doctor’s office and the school would be more of a pain in the rear end than they already are.
