| 0:00.0 | Hey, hey Waffle gang. I do hope you are well. My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more relationship stories. And if you do love a Reddit story, why not consider him that like, subscribe, maybe that notification bell too. Let's crack on with today's first story, which comes from Good Occasion 308 from the True Off My Chest subreddit and says, |
| 0:26.0 | I'm envious of the relationship my child has with my husband, and I wish my husband still treated |
| 0:31.8 | me the same. I love my child, but I can't help but feel a twinge of envy whenever I see him interact with my husband. |
| 0:40.2 | I'd never fault him for it. |
| 0:42.3 | He has the dad that every kid should have, the dad that lights up at the sight of you |
| 0:47.0 | and will show up to every sports match and will schedule dad and son outings on the weekend. |
| 0:51.9 | The trouble I'm having is that it used to be me. I used to |
| 0:55.8 | be the one that lit up my husband's face. I used to be the one he'd make time to do things with, |
| 1:01.5 | but I'm not anymore. Before having kids, I was never worried about being pushed to the sidelines. |

| 1:11.6 | their spouse, and it is, but I didn't realize there would be a cap on the quantity. There is no |
| 1:17.5 | love left for me. I get the tidbits, the scraps, the leftovers. We've been married for 16 years |
| 1:24.1 | at this point. Didn't even have our child until 10 years in. We had a strong marriage, |
| 1:29.7 | we made time for one another, went on dates, had exciting, passionate, mind-mush-inducing sex |
| 1:35.7 | three to five times a week, would greet each other with a big smile, hug and a kiss when the other got |
| 1:41.1 | home. Then, around the age of three, poof, it was gone. Now my husband |
| 1:46.9 | arrives home. I get a placating pat on the back or a kiss on top of my head, while our child gets |
| 1:51.9 | an excited, open arms hug, spin around while happily screeching Daddy. If I tried to give my husband a |
| 1:58.6 | real kiss, he had turned his cheek and say he just got home |
| 2:01.7 | and is stressed. |
| 2:03.4 | There's no more date nice. |
| 2:04.9 | We don't live near family who could babysit and he isn't comfortable having someone we don't |
