USCGAviator Posted November 13, 2010 Posted November 13, 2010 So earlier today em ex-wife and I were talking about the kids then we derailed somehow started talking about how it was when we were married and her new love. We both agree that I was the type of husband that is the "man" of the house. However It wasn't 100% my way I believe in 50/50. We both also agree that she was 100% her way or the highway. We battled on this for years until we finally divorced. Even little things like who drives most of the time. I obviously like to drive my family and would feel ridiculous if my wife was driving the family every where we went. She talked about her new man and that he is perfect for her because he is ultra submissive in every way. She loves that she can be in control of everything down to her TV shows that he must watch with her while he rubs her feet. She says he is a total yes man and I was not surprised that she would find a man like this after me. We both had a good laugh about it and ended the conversation. Any thoughts about yes men?
FanFan Posted November 13, 2010 Posted November 13, 2010 She talked about her new man and that he is perfect for her because he is ultra submissive in every way. What does she mean by every way?
Author USCGAviator Posted November 13, 2010 Author Posted November 13, 2010 (edited) in every "yes man" way. She says jump and he says "how high". She told me she asked him what he wanted for X-mas and he just wanted her to reach in her purse and show him his balls so he can make sure their ok lol. Edited November 13, 2010 by USCGAviator
sally4sara Posted November 13, 2010 Posted November 13, 2010 would feel ridiculous if my wife was driving the family every where we went. Why? Not trying to needle you but the first thing that popped into my head was me and my cousin arguing about who sat where when we were all going to end up in the car going to the same place anyway. She talked about her new man and that he is perfect for her because he is ultra submissive in every way. She loves that she can be in control of everything down to her TV shows that he must watch with her while he rubs her feet. She says he is a total yes man and I was not surprised that she would find a man like this after me. I don't have so many thoughts about Yes Men so much as a wonder about her choosing a guy based so much on who she felt you were rather than a real connection to her new guy. If she didn't like some aspect of who you were to begin with, she wouldn't have married you or been attracted to you. I'm going to put my money down on her getting bored with this guy a few years from now at the most. THEN maybe she will be able to find some guy that is that awesome blend of assertive and considerate and finally be happy.
Author USCGAviator Posted November 13, 2010 Author Posted November 13, 2010 (edited) I don't HAVE to drive all the time but most of the time I like to taxi my family wherever we go. A long while back a good friend was following us to a cookout. when we arrived they pulled up right next to us. And I was shocked to see his wife driving. I'm sorry but I laughed so hard.It just looked funny lol Edited November 13, 2010 by USCGAviator

I told her she better make it work out with this guy and so far so good. Unlike her I can hide girlfriends from my kids. My kids say hes nice and they seem to like him and the kids being in a stable happy home is my top priority.
Stung Posted November 15, 2010 Posted November 15, 2010 I would say they sound like a perfect match for each other, except that it doesn't sound like she speaks of him with much respect. I don't think there's anything necessarily wrong with a male being more passive and acquiescent, but I would hope he would pair up with a partner who appreciated him for it rather than just taking advantage of it. Even in BDSM relationships a domme usually talks about her sub with real affection. As for the car thing, I think you're a little overly rigid in your gender roles, personally. Bursting into laughter because a woman is driving the car while the man is the passenger is honestly a little weird.
