    Over the dishwasher of course!! Am really angry and so is she. Am sure my addiction has something to do with it and feeling pretty vulnerable. Your comments always appreciated.

    Obviously I am picking a fight with my wife over something inconsequential because I feel like acting out. Sorry, I thought that was obvious. Calling me idiotic did not help BTW.

    She was annoyed I had not emptied it while she was out and I had opened it before the cycle was finished.

    Stop cursing at him, okay?
    Porn addiction changes the way we act...
    Some people have mood swings, and temporary anger issues, frustration, etc, etc.
    You don't have to yell at him.
    This addiction is probably causing frustration, therefore he is likely to get into arguments, and this is probably the reason he got into a argument with his wife.

    Don't worry bro, I'm here to support you... I'm 14, and I'm unmarried, I hope you and your wife life the best, most prosperous life anyone has ever lived.

    Thank you. :D

  7. From my point of view....and i am not hijacking

    I severely checked out of my marriage and did not help with things at all. When i did start I did them not in the correct way.
    And yes it was just a reaction to changes and stress and anxiety.

    We set up a daily task list using remember the milk app so that we could assign tasks and know who does what when and when i or she could ignore something. It has at least taken some of the resemtment out of our relationship over housework and work work. We get an appreciation for the others effort. Maybe not what is actually occurring in your situation but leaving the door open and not unloading it was probly the match that lit the bonfire that was fueled by something else

    Appreciate your comment llortaton. I was at risk of acting out if I did not get support from the community. I have one kid older than you.

    Oh, wow.
    You're welcome, my friend, anytime!

    I don't like anyone disrespecting another person on this forum, it makes me angry.

    Again, I hope you and your family live the most prosperous life!
    Have a great day! :D

    Agree, am sure you are right. And my addiction is still pretty active. Thanks
     
  11. I feel you there, honestly. Sometimes I direct my frustrations to the closest ones by, and I have to tell you thats the most meanest thing, especially if the one's close is a relative. Mood swings, dopamine instability, valunerability and insecurities are the main causes of this, the more you keep going with a streak, the more benefits you will reap and the better your mood stabilizes.

    It’s probably not the dishwasher. I know when my husband and I started this journey I would do the same (still do). It was a change of routine, emotions are running high, and triggers happen all that time. Talk to her calmly and really listen to her.

    Try to ignore them. Some members on here are jerks and some just might be in a bad mood. If people have the tendency to be jerks I put them on my ignore list.

    On your op, I would say yes porn causes me to be more argumentive and impatient with people. Plus I don't want to do anything productive. Do you meditate/pray and read positive affirmations? That might help as well.

    Thanks King - it was pretty bad and gratefully, the NoFap moderator removed the member and their posts. Thanks to for the reminder on meditation and prayer.

  18. Look brother.... you got this one life.... this one chance to decide. Will you act emotional and egostic or will you try to make a calm Conversation and think how unnecessary that argument would be

  20. are you sure this is the word? :D
    When this happen for me it is over. If she doesn't respect you, nothing good will come from her. Do your dishes, though and do not argue with a woman. Never. She played you to marry her, you can relate now. Many here wanna wifeeee, no. Be more masculine, do not act. Let her scream and argue till she tires herself to death.
