I feel bad for some married dudes out there

I work around a lot of people, and people like to talk. This one married couple works in the same building, but different departments, and I overhear a lot. For instance, he's tired of a dead bedroom, nothing but plain vanilla if he gets any at all, and his wife outright refuses to do anything different than lying in bed. The wife, however, loves to brag about all the fun she had, the wild things she did in the past, and how she misses those days. Also about how her husband is stable, but not exciting.

I'm sure couples have all sorts of problems but come on lady. Don't just rely on your husband to do everything, you gotta bring some of that spice into the marriage yourself. This is how divorce and cheating starts.

I can relate to this but it's hard to find the perfect partner who you're compatible socially/hobby and sexually. I get along great with my wife in every facet but we aren't as sexually compatible as I'd like. I wouldn't get divorced because I love her and our kids. It's just tough but not the same exact situation you described. Oh well :)

@Turtlepower No such thing as perfection. As long as the compromises aren't too drastic or one-sided, I'd say that's a good relationship.

@Magnolia21 Exactly. It's far more important to me that I connect with my partner intellectually and again have enough similar interests where we have a lot of other fun together anyways. Seeking perfection is usually how one ends up alone but agree with your point of within reason. It's certainly ok to have deal breakers.
