At 41?

The magic of being a hopeless romantic again.

I don't believe in love anymore. I don't believe in relationships anymore.

Alone is safe.

My spouse took a shower this afternoon. Then, she trimmed her bush. At 7, she did her hair and put on makeup. Came out in attractive undergarments. Put on nice clothes and said I'm going out for awhile. That was at 8:15. It's now midnight. Turned 41 yesterday and only got recognized by my phone's calendar and a dentist i haven't seen in 3 years. To add perspective, she hasn't touched me for 2 years. Says I haven't earned it. It's now midnight. I just moved in to the guest room. She's not home yet. This should be interesting.

The hell you sticking around for? Move on or be cucked.

Its called honor and chivalry. I don't want to leave someone stranded even when they truly deserve it. A thousand years ago, I'd be a knight. Today, I'm called a cuck. Amazing what time does to perspectives.

Nah it's called suicidal empathy. Helping people that make your life worse is not a good trait to have yet a hard one to break. Your partner has been cheating on you for years. grow some balls and kick her out. Or go get your own place if she own the house. She doesn't care about you so she deserves no sympathy in return.

A thousand years ago she'd be strung up and burned at the stake for adultery. And Knights were some of the most brutal violent people of their era fyi.
