I NEED SUPPORT FEELING ON EDGE

My wife wants to make some fried tacos. You put beans or meat in a corn tortilla and then fry them in oil. :angry: If that wasn't cruel enough, she asked me to go to the store to buy more oil because "we're out of oil". :noway: I feel like she's rubbing my nose in it, like the oil is urine and I'm a dog that urinated in the house. :cry: What should I do? She's trying to sabotage my weight loss journey, just as I was back on the right path, and out of the wayward desert, full of sticker and puncture weeds. Know what I mean?

    Yes. Right around this time each week, my husband gives me side-eye and suggests dessert. I try giving him sex instead, but then he just wants both.

    Negotiation fail.

    Go to the store and buy the oil. You don't need to eat them, maybe you need to go on a walk when she's making them. You can be strong. Tell your wife how you are feeling too. My husband sometimes doesn't understand the little things that bug me, but he won't get it unless I tell him. Good luck!

    Aww sorry to hear that... Have you tried talking to her about how you feel? Maybe she doesn't realize what she is doing... I have done the same thing on several occasions and not meant to.

    Tell her fine, but that you will make your own. STEAM the tortillas, add what YOU want to the taco, no cheese, sour cream, that kind of stuff. Onions, cilantro and hot sauce is the way to go.

    You guys can share meals, but you can make your own healthier version of the meal for yourself.

    You really should consider divorcing her. She's clearly cheating on you.

    Don't eat it. I made the mistake of falling yesterday and I'm still feeling it today. RUN!!!! Don't let her get you. My husband does the same thing.

    Say you're going to the store and then go to a movie or the gym instead. I'm mean, I wouldn't buy the oil. If I did go to the store I would buy something totally healthy and come back and eat it in front of her.

    Respectfully I remind you that she also asked you to pick up bacon AND peanut butter!!! Not one or the other, but BOTH!

    One day she's putting extra beans on your taco the next she's slipping full fat creamer into your coffee. Be careful friend, it's a slippery slope.

    She is jealous
    She wants to give you a BJ
    She is cheating on you
    I'll come over and eat them, while you flee for safety.

    I'm scared of her, and fear that she's trying to hurt me.

    Whatever you do, don't consult a professional marriage counselor. They just want your money. The internet will be the best place to get the advice you need. Good luck!

    You guys are perverts, and need to talk to a good pastor.

    Have you actually sat down with her and talked to her about it? Is she thin/fat? Does she feel threatened? Is she scared she may loose you? Have you asked for her help?
    Try getting out of the house to a neutral area for both of you and sit down and talk about what you are trying to do, why you feel the need to do it and reassure her that you love her and that if she loves you she will need to support you in this.....and this is how you expect her support.
    In the meantime, if you don't know how to do it learn to cook healthy food. Do in for yourself and offer to make enought for the rest of the family. She may just not know how to cook healthy and feel like it is just one more thing she has to figure out how to do and doesn't have the time or want to do more.
    On that note, right now while you are on edge.....and she sounds like she may also be.....give her a hug, and go get the oil. And something you can make for youself healthy... Ground turkey breast, seasonings.Lettuce, lite cheese...a SMALL corn tortilla....dont fry it. You can make anything healthy with a little work.
    Oh, I'd suggest you take a long time to get the stuff too. Maybe a walk to get some exercise in. Relax. get your thoughts together, remember why this is important....and remember how important your wife is.
