Hey guys. Let me start off by saying how excited I am that I got published! Obviously there is a story behind fml. My husband and I have been together since I was 14, and married since 19 (I'm 21 right now). We have No problems communicating with each other, but we just recently lost a set of twins, which has been really hard on both of us. We have both been dealing with it in our own way, and at times it feels it is tearing us apart. We both have sat down and attempted to work things out together, but at the moment it feel as if nothing will ever be the same. I have shut him out from time to time, which I definitely have tried not to do, but sometimes it feels as if I need to work things out with myself. As for the article, him and I got into it this morning, and I left for work angry. When I got off, I turned on my phone to see the link, which I clicked to the unfortunate page. I did read through it, and it's sad to say I was guilty of a few. I will be working on myself, because I love my husband, and I don't want this tragic event to be the end of us.

Pay attention. Then ask questions for clarification. Not the best way to initiate this sort of conversation but at least he said something.

The article has some very reasonable concerns you Should speak with your husband and fix your mistakes that you're making

I tried to read that article. It was so sexist it made my eyes cross. Sorry, OP, if hour husband believes any of that crap.

well,1, 2, and 3 were more patronising than sexist. remember that, while a lot of women work outside the home, many are still "housewives". those items are more geared towards the old traditional marriage where the man is the "head of the family". the list definitely wont fit every struggling couple

i don't know. i think being told to have sex even when you're not in the mood is pretty messed up. making sex a chore is always a good idea in a relationship!

#53 I hope for your sake that you're lesbian, because I can't see how you could have a healthy relationship with a good man. I think especially #2 is a gem many women don't understand. And of course #5, but that is really obvious. Believe? Crap? Sexist? Good luck to you.

Wow, I totally agree that this article is ridiculously sexist and implies that all fault in a marriage should be the woman's. Also, what if I want sex and he doesn't? No one is around telling him he should "just give in" because I deserve it. WTF.

And what about that bit on avoiding negativity? I get that no one wants to be around a Debbie Downer all the time, but the article makes it seem like you're never allowed to have a problem, ever, or if you do, you're supposed to keep your mouth shut about it. Aren't partners supposed to share their burdens with each other?
