AIBU?

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!

For film buffs, www.framed.wtf is good. Guess the film in 6 different single frames, getting more obvious.

DH and I do it mid-evening.

Pedantle, that is.

Phrazle is my new favourite, along with plusword.

Hurdle is your answer.

I do it alone. I’ve developed some starting moves - foreplay, if you will - that really work for me and speed things up.

DH isn’t into it. Unfortunately.

Divorce her - I think she could do better.

Ohh I like the sound of this, will give it a go.

So pleased my husband doesn’t demand any of this nonsense.
He goes off and does it on his own, I do NOT need to be involved thank you very much!

No such thing as a frigid woman- only men who are crap in bed.

Sswhinesthebest · 26/08/2022 17:04

If you always get there first, then I'm not surprised that your wife isn't as keen as you. A gentleman makes sure his wife is sorted first.

What does she say when you mention spicing your bed time shenanigans up with others?

I think you need to consider her needs more or perhaps you need to sort yourself out in the bathroom or something. Don't let her see your frustration.

Excellent user name.

Do schools go back soon, by the way?

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

Well of course, but wait until you're an adult.

Well I found it amusing.

Get yourself a little puzzle book, OP. None of this new-fangled -rdle nonsense.

takingmytimeonmyride · 26/08/2022 17:16

I do Wordle and Globle with my DP. We don't live together though, so we send each other the pics.

Then on my own I sometimes so heardle, framed, pedantle and redactle. I tried to get my DP into them but he wasn't that excited so I sort myself out.
