I finally convinced my conservative husband to share his sexual fantasy… now I'm so disgusted, I refuse to touch him: ASK JANA
I've been married for six years. My husband is the strong, silent type. The kind of man who chops wood, drives a truck and doesn't talk much about his feelings.

Bride is 'livid' over 'ugly' detail in her $400 wedding cake: 'The baker did you dirty'
A bride has told of how she was so 'livid' at her wedding after the $400 cake she ordered looked nothing like she had imagined. The woman had paid a professional baker to create her 'dream' three-tier cake in a muted, soft shade of dusty blue. She asked for a faux wedding cake made of Styrofoam that was covered in real fondant, with a real single serve of sponge - ready for the bride and groom to cut into for photographs. But on their wedding day, the couple realised the baker had made the 'wrong colour' cake - despite giving the professional two 'inspo pics' of what they wanted. Adding to the shock, the baker forgot to mark where to cut into the towering tiered cake, and instead gave the bride and groom the only instructions, 'Poke it with a fork to find it'. 'My sister thought she found it because it was softer in one area, but during our cake cutting, we cut into Styrofoam. It was so awkward,' she said. 'We eventually found (the real cake) and it was only the top half of the bottom tier.' The cake not only looked 'ugly', but the bride said it was 'sticking out like a sore thumb' and 'clashed horribly' with her lighter-toned décor at the reception. 'I'm livid,' the bride said in a Reddit thread. The bride said her sister 'tried to salvage' what she could from the original cake by using the flower 'scraps' from around the reception. 'The colour was so off... It's so ugly I had my sister save the cake last minute... My sister was trying to see how much cake she could cover up since we didn't have that much white icing,' she explained. 'We added the flowers that were leftover décor from my venue. 'She did an amazing job.' While she admitted the updated cake was giving 'grandma' vibes, she said it 'at least matched' the colours of her wedding reception. Hours before her sister came to the rescue, the bride asked the baker to fix the cake. 'The baker refused to change anything since they didn't have a designer that day to fix it... My wedding was in five hours and I didn't have time to find another cake,' she said. To make matters worse, the bakery is now refusing to give her a full refund. 'The lady on the phone was so rude and condescending,' the bride said. 'She told us to take pictures of the cake next to our wedding décor so she could make sure "it actually didn't match". 'We added the flowers from my flower arch later to help prove it didn't match my décor.' Styrofoam cakes are popular at weddings for many reasons, including providing the tiered look of a traditional wedding cake without the expense. Guests are usually served sheet cakes, which are sliced discreetly in the kitchen and brought out as soon as the couple has made their first cut into the dummy version. The bride's post has been met with more than 2,000 comments, with many shocked over the cake she received on her wedding day. 'Your sister did a phenomenal job lightening up the cake. Sorry the bakery is being so awful,' one said. 'Omg! I would burn them on socials so hard. That is horrendous! Your sister did save the day, but still looks nothing like your inspo photos. Wow,' another shared. 'The biggest problem with the job her sister did is that the blue isn't dark enough. She did a great job in recreating the spirit of the inspo pics. The bakery did a horrible job. It looks like some kind of LSD aquarium infused nightmare,' one suggested. 'Bakery did you dirty, no doubt about it. Glad you are happy with your sister's cake rescue,' another added.

The kindness of strangers: out of the blue, an older woman handed me a well-thumbed book
A few years ago I decided to improve myself physically and mentally. I did that by setting a couple of new year resolutions. One was to exercise regularly, the other was to read a book a week. The exercise part didn't go so well because on 1 January, I went for my first walk and stepped on a branch that punctured my leg. But my plan to throw myself into reading was much more successful. Later that year I was on a long train trip from Sydney to Melbourne with a friend and told him about my reading goal. I was pretty stoked with how well I was going and was excited to talk about it. I didn't think this was particularly interesting chat to anyone else on the train, so I certainly wasn't worried about anyone eavesdropping. But at some point on this journey, an older couple stood up to get off the train. As they walked past, the woman handed me a well-thumbed copy of The Man Who Was Thursday by GK Chesterton. She smiled at me but didn't say anything. Before I had time to process what had happened, she was gone. I didn't even get a chance to say thank you. That was our only interaction on the train and her gift was completely out of the blue, with no pretext and no expectation. It was a simple, quiet gesture of humanity – kindness just for the sake of it. I didn't quite hit my goal of reading a book a week that year, instead maxing out at about 30 books for the year, which was still a lot more than I'd ever read before. But what makes the memory even fonder is that The Man Who Was Thursday went on to become one of my favourite books – it now has pride of place on my bookshelf. That woman on the train had great taste. From making your day to changing your life, we want to hear about chance encounters that have stuck with you.
