In the midst of moving house, I forgot to remove a wet diaper from the floor after a midnight change. I stepped on it the next morni and the thing popped open and somehow shot across the room. I also have carpet. It was awful

You’re not stupid, you’re young. At your age I dated a guy like that, but didn’t have the clarity to leave for five whole years of the abuse. You’re recognizing the patterns and you’re doing something about it, be proud of that.

Again “my hands are tied”. You seem self aware only of your past mistakes but not of the ones you’re currently making. Which is probably why you cheated a second time after feeling “so much remorse”.

Sigh. I’m really sorry you’re this way. If your account of this story is this bad I can only imagine your wife’s side.

You have an opportunity to change, you really do. But the entirety of your responses are “my hands are tied I guess, I know I’m an asshole but gosh darn it, I’m doing what’s best for me I mean my daughter!!

I really sympathize with your wife. You’re emotionally manipulative and you seem to know it but have no idea how to stop being that way. I hope this thread was at least a little bit of a wake up call for you because the one suffering the most by your ignorance, is your daughter. Good luck dude, I really hope everyone in this situations lives improve

What’s best for your very young daughter is to be with her mother. If you truly want what’s best for your baby, try talking to your wife about maybe relocating in the same country. Work something out, but a kid that young needs it’s mother.

So maybe make an effort to stop being scum instead of being… whatever this is?

Oh Jesus. You cheated when your wife had an infant?? And you want to take a child that young away from their mother? Good lord when does it stop getting worse?

Then why’d you do it more than once? If you felt so ashamed what was the reason you did it again? Your shame must not have been too big.

The best upbringing would have been with you and mom together, but you made the decision to screw her mother over and now you want to continue to do that? Do you WANT her to resent you? The way you speak sounds a lot like you just think you’re better than your wife. She (daughter) wouldn’t be in danger. Have you considered asking your daughter what she prefers?

You cheated on her, that’s what. You broke up your marriage so you could get off, and put your own daughter in a tough situation because you’re selfish. That’s how.

If your wife is moving to this new country on her own accord, then she probably knows what she’s doing. You saying it’s not a good environment means nothing. Is it war torn? Oppressive? What’s so bad about where’s she’s moving other than that it’s away from you.

And guess who did that? You did. You chose to cheat, which is forcing her to move countries. That’s 100% on you. So wether or not you don’t think it’s a good environment, YOURE the one who caused that situation. Since you’re so well off why not buy your wife an apartment in your country? You really seem like the worst.

And your wife wouldn’t because….???

Pay child support and alimony then, Mr “I’m so well off”

Then leave your wife alone and stop trying to make her life even worse.

I just don’t understand what compels someone to cheat. Can’t you just watch porn like a decent human? Or communicate with your wife since you said you had a strong relationship apparently? And you gave her an STI…. That’s just so awful. I wish there was some way she could press charges for biological warfare or some shit bevause you deserve that.

I’m 27 and still have sleep overs with my bestie, we wine out and then sleep in the same bed platonically lol

Yawn
