I need advice. I’ve told my partner I’m dealing with mental health and my sex drive isn’t very high. I try my best to satisfy him but it’s never enough for him.

Why can't the lazy bastard do the school run?

Why are you wasting your life with this good for nothing bellend? Don't you think you're worth more??

Starlight1984 · 09/06/2025 13:41

@tiredmummm You have posted 7 almost identical threads about your partner in the last couple of weeks. You said you split up for a year last year (whilst he was shagging other women) so I would suggest you go back to being apart.

This relationship is never going to work.

outerspacepotato · 09/06/2025 13:44

Tell him you find healthy men who don't work and lay around the house doing nothing for a year sexually unattractive.

If that's correct, WTAF did you take him back???

what help do you need to get rid of him for good??

Taytayslayslay · 09/06/2025 13:48

My ex was the same. My mum told me if I slept with him more, and pleased him he would help around the house more and with the kids and be less moody. So, we discussed it and i physically couldn't force myself to keep doing it after a week.

Make some plans to leave.

Skandar · 09/06/2025 13:54

Why do you care whether he feels appreciated and cared for? He's not doing that for you - he is not the most important person in your relationship! I'd be pointing out to him how deeply unattractive you find him, slobbing around in bed while you run around doing all the housework and childcare, with your health issues. And I wouldn't be touching him with a barge pole until he pulled his weight.

Your mental health will improve immeasurably when you dump this loser!

DeathNote11 · 09/06/2025 14:01

He sounds like a catch.

I remember, way back, when I used to tolerate being treated like that. You'll get sick to death of it & snap one day, so get your ducks in a row in anticipation. And for goodness sake, if you must have sex with him, double up on contraception.

I was ready to say that!

You have a lot on your plate already - a child and your own health issues. You don’t need to also have to deal with a man child that just thinks about sex and makes you feel guilty on top (aka he is using emotional manipulation)

kellygoeswest · 09/06/2025 14:03

He needs to get a job. Is he contributing in any way? Why are you doing all of the chores/cleaning?

arethereanyleftatall · 09/06/2025 14:05

Oh fgs op, I just don’t know what to write in these ridiculous situations.

why?

just why do you value yourself so low?

what had happened?

this man is vile op. Horrible, repulsive, disgusting, grim and useless.

why, why, why have you not ended this relationship which does nothing whatsoever for you, ages and ages ago?

GoodCharl · 09/06/2025 14:07

Wow op. You need to get rid of this freeloader. So he refuses to work, does fuck all around the house and knowing you have mobility issues watches you struggle with ?your/both of your child…. Doesnt help around the house/cleaning etc but yet expects a quick blowy when your home?

seriously. Im no doctor but i predict Your mental health will improve once his arse is drop kicked out the front door and locks changed 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

You really really need to ask yourself why you feel you have to satisy him. Do you think he is on dadsnet right now asking for tips for how he can make you happy? No, he’s not. He makes me feel sick.

Are you signed off work?

Kathbrownlow · 09/06/2025 14:23

Vile. As with a pp, took me right back to when I was married to revolting coercive sex pest ex. It was horrible being married to him, he thought he owned my body.

Do yourself the biggest favour and get rid.

MyHouseInThePrairie · 09/06/2025 14:23

everychildmatters · 09/06/2025 14:22

Are you signed off work?

Do you think that’s making a difference to her DP)s behaviour?

everychildmatters · 09/06/2025 14:25

@MyHouseInThePrairie If she can work then it may well help to give her a break from him. But of course he should be working too if he's capable.

countingthedays945 · 09/06/2025 14:26

I bet he did!

JFC - this is actually one of those where I hope the OP is a troll because it’s hard to imagine any woman setting their bar so low that they willingly cohabit with a lazy slob cocklodger who expects daily blow jobs as a reward for doing fuck all.

He thinks you’re a slave, childminder, skivvy and unpaid sex worker rolled into one. What does this cunt bring to the table?

Velvian · 09/06/2025 14:39

What is in this relationship for you @tiredmummm ?

DaisyChain505 · 09/06/2025 14:45

How about instead of worrying how to satisfy him you worry about how to satisfy yourself because I bet you can’t name many ways in which he positively adds to your life.

You sound like you don’t value yourself much if you’re willing to have this loser around.

I hope learn to value yourself more.
