Once a day is enough for my wife but I'd like to do it more often. Feeling frustrated, AIBU to look elsewhere?

We usually go to bed about midnight and do it then. Normally it takes me 10-15 minutes but sometimes it takes a bit longer for my wife to finish.

Then I have to wait almost a full day before I can get my needs met again!

It's starting to get me down :(

YABU - Learn to show some restraint, once a day is fine.
YANBU - We all have different needs. You're perfectly entitled to go elsewhere to get your Wordle needs met!

Try WordAll!

Manzana · 26/08/2022 15:03

There’s also worldle, if you like geography

LightsDownLowDancingSlow · 26/08/2022 15:04

Definitely look elsewhere. Your wife should be more understanding to your needs.

Theres lots of apps that allow you to play as many times as you like. Some allow 4 or more at once, that’ll ease the frustration. 😂

Byrdle for all you church music fans out there.

RobertsRadio · 26/08/2022 15:05

I feel your pain Op, especially since Archived Wordle was shut down. Once a day doesn't seem enough, so I'm going to try the suggestions on here.

I was very close to spectacularly missing the joke here - see some other posters haven't twigged yet!

AmberGer · 26/08/2022 15:06

😂
Our routine is heardle, wordle, globle.
But, we like to 'do it' on a morning 😉

Wow, I've often dreamt of a threesome ... but a foursome would be beyond my wildest dreams

I can't see anyone who has missed it?

At least three on the first page. 0/10, asking if ready to go back to school and goat emoji.

Whoever it was who reported it!

The thread was briefly down whilst MNHQ 'had a look'

OP: If larger groups are your bag, then can I repeat my recommendation of
duotrigordle.com/

32, all at the same time (with 37 attempts permitted)

Cyclemarine · 26/08/2022 15:15

This made me laugh so much 😂

Chikapu · 26/08/2022 15:17

I have a lovely little threesome every morning
Wordle
Framed
Plusword
they really gets the juices flowing, then I do Redactle in the evening for an exciting climax.

I did wonder if anyone reported it!

I even had a moment where I thought wordle was a typo 😂got there eventually!

bridgetreilly · 26/08/2022 14:24

Waffle
Plusword
Nerdle
Hurdle
Quordle

Haven't seen Hurdle before, pretty good, much tougher than Wordle.
Started to flag a little halfway through but got my rythm back and finally delivered the goods!

Cemantle during the day (usually elevenses or afternoon teatime)

Pedantle at night

DahliaMacNamara · 26/08/2022 15:21

Personally I'm very vanilla, and can't be doing with all the alternative gymnastics at midnight. I like it done and dusted by three minutes past twelve, and can go to sleep knowing I won't have to think about what to put in the box for the best part of 24 hours.

NiceViper · 26/08/2022 15:23

'CAT me you cunt'

For Mnetters of yore, it has to be sweardle

JoanOgden · 26/08/2022 15:23

I find Squardle really does it for me, and they have a jumbo one every Sunday for some weekend morning fun
