Remember you need to be mysterious, not cocky. If you have to say something referencing marriage just say "these are things I do with my wife. You fired me from that role"



At thanks SoTorn, I said it in a pretty upbeat joking way so hopefully didn’t seem too passive aggressive. I would use something like that fired line you gave me but my W keeps saying “we’re still married” so I’m not sure how that would play out.

Yeah you’re right IHC, I don’t think my W has found anyone supporting her decisions yet, she is probably looking.

I need some help guys. Today my W asked me to rub her neck. I said “only if you massage mine too”. Me doing things for her only because I expected something in return was a complain of hers in the R. So a 180 would be to do it without question. Per forum advice though, I shouldn’t be doing stuff like this as it is cake eating.

She got upset and said “see this is the problem”, and acted pretty withdrawn from me after. How should I handle situations like this? It’s more of the same if I ask for something in return or say no. But seems like temp check/cake eating if I do? Thanks
