*AITAH for wanting to leave my wife after our youngest goes to college?*

My(47m) wife(50f) changed after kids were born. Its like she hated me. She hated my presence. Sex life was pretty much non existent after our youngest was born. I havent had sex with my wife for 13 years. For 3 years I tried everything, we went to therapy, but nothing changed so I just accepted my fate. I did start cheating casually after 3 years of deadbedroom which never really fulfilled me. So I had a three full blown affairs. That has been my life. I have been leading double life for past decade. I didnt divorce her because I didnt want my kids raised by another man. We did make very good parents just not good husband and wife. So my son is 17 now and I think its good time to leave so I confessed to my wife about all my affairs and asked for divorce. She was apparently very hurt by it which surprised by it because I could have bet my kidneys, that she was planning to leave me too. After the initial shock settled, she changed. Now suddenly her libido is through the roof and she wants to fuck me everyday. She has become very affectionate. She does not want me to leave and is promising me all the sex I want. But I dont really love her. She is somehow blaming me for not telling her that sex was so important to me

*Big grocery chain makes major change that could drastically change your shopping trip*

Grocery stores and pharmacies have been facing a problem with theft at self-checkout for a while now, and one big regional grocer is adopting a new solution to try to fix the issue. Schnucks, a grocery chain with over 100 stores in the Midwest, is limiting customers who can use self-checkout to those with 10 or less items, according to a report by Business Insider. The store said in a statement in the report that its main reason for the move was to improve "customer service and checkout efficiency," but acknowledged that these self-checkout aisles are more "susceptible to theft" and that this new policy should help with that problem. The company also defended the move to insider by saying that self-checkout was always meant for "smaller orders." Self-checkout systems were supposed to be positive cost-savers for grocery stores and pharmacies looking to cut down on labor costs, but in many cases, the prevalence of theft has made self-checkout even more costly.Related: Target, Walgreens have a new weapon against retail theft Late last year, Target already implemented the same method as Schnucks at some of its stores around the country. The national supermarket also said that the move was to improve shopping efficiency by cutting wait time and not to curb theft. But the company has also reported high levels of theft at self-checkout in the past. Shrink, which is the term used to define lost merchandise, is made easier in these self-checkout machines as customers, whether purposely or accidentally, would not scan some items. Different grocers have attempted to adopt other security methods to cutdown on shrink, including added machines that measure the weight of the scanned items, better surveillance, and, ironically, adding more staff to these self-checkout areas.Related: Veteran fund manager picks favorite stocks for 2024

*General Motors is switching gears on its EV strategy*

As the demand for EVs start to slow amid concerns about range, charging infrastructure and other problems related to EVs, hybrids have emerged as a viable option for those looking to adopt the plug without sacrificing mobility. Related: The fall of a Carvana competitor left lost, disgruntled customers in the dark Mary Barra, CEO of General Motors, speaks during an interview with David Rubenstein, the President of The Economic Club, at the Ritz Carlton Hotel on Dec. 13, 2023 in Washington, D.C. Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images As per a report by CNBC, General Motors' (GM) - Get Free Report CEO Mary Barra revealed a new strategy the big three automaker is going to pursue in the changing automotive landscape — a return to plug-in hybrids. During GM's Q4 earnings call, she noted that though the automaker remains committed to its 2035 goals, plug-in hybrids will help them get there. “Let me be clear, GM remains committed to eliminating tailpipe emissions from our light-duty vehicles by 2035, but, in the interim, deploying plug-in technology in strategic segments will deliver some of the environment or environmental benefits of EVs as the nation continues to build this charging infrastructure,” Barra said during the earnings call.

Jerritt Clark/Getty Images GM is a company that is not unfamiliar with plug-in hybrid technology. Previously, the Big Three automaker produced notable plug-in vehicles such as the Chevrolet Volt, as well as its luxury coupe derivative, the Cadillac ELR. The Caddy would last in its production run from 2013 to 2016, while the Chevy would end production in 2019, citing a lack of demand. Currently, GM makes only one hybrid in the United States — a $104,900 hybrid version of the Chevrolet Corvette called the E-Ray. The shift in strategy comes as Americans looking to adopt the plug are weary about issues plaguing battery-electric vehicles such as range anxiety, a lack of charging infrastructure and high MSRPs.

"The important thing is not to convert to [EVs] or [Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles]," Toyoda said. "The enemy is CO2. So, let's all think about reducing CO2 right away."

*U.S Embassy sends out travel advisory for another vacation destination*

With resorts and airlines currently in the midst of their snowbird season, the U.S. State Department has been raising its travel advisory levels for several destinations popular among tourists. Last week, the Bahamas were changed from "take normal precautions" to "exercise increased caution" after a record of 18 murders in the capital of Nassau since the start of the year. While almost entirely related to localized violence between rival gangs, the government agency warned Americans to remain "vigilant when staying at short-term vacation rental properties where private security companies do not have a presence."Related: The government is telling you to avoid traveling to these places right now A week later, the U.S. Embassy in Jamaica issued a travel alert reminding travelers that the State Department had changed its advisory for the Caribbean nation to Level Three's "Reconsider Travel" level earlier in the year. The highest "Avoid All Travel" level in the four-tier advisory system is reserved for active war zones and countries with authoritarian governments. Jamaica's beaches and music-loving culture make it a popular destination for American tourists. Shutterstock 'When arrests are made, cases are infrequently prosecuted...' "Local police often do not respond effectively to serious criminal incidents," reads the travel advisory. "When arrests are made, cases are infrequently prosecuted to a conclusive sentence. Families of U.S. citizens killed in accidents or homicides frequently wait a year or more for final death certificates to be issued by Jamaican authorities." More travel stories:A new travel term is taking over the internet (and reaching airlines and hotels)The 10 best airline stocks to buy nowAirlines see a new kind of traveler at the front of the plane Both the embassy and the State Department have been drawing attention to the string of homicides, sexual assaults, armed robberies and home invasions in particular. Even so, Jamaica remains an incredibly popular travel destination among travelers from all over North America. At around the same time as the travel advisory came out, Delta Air Lines (DAL) - Get Free Report named the country's Montego Bay among the cities seeing the most new demand among its customers while over 1.3 million tourists from the U.S. came to the country after it opened up from the pandemic in 2021.Going to Jamaica anyway? Here are some tips for staying safe "The homicide rate reported by the Government of Jamaica has for several years been among the highest in the Western Hemisphere," the advisory reads further. "[...] Emergency services and hospital care vary throughout the island, and response times and quality of care may vary from U.S. standards. Public hospitals are under-resourced and cannot always provide high level or specialized care." For those who do want to take advantage of the country's sandy beaches and well-known food and music culture, the State Department recommends avoiding secluded places and not walking alone at night. The Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) can be used to give the government the ability to locate one's whereabouts in the event of an emergency while thinking through a personal contingency plan is also a good idea. And as with most international travel, buying traveler's insurance can help avoid a steep bill in the event that one needs medical help while overseas. "Most hospitals and doctors overseas do not accept U.S. health insurance," the note reads. "U.S. citizens with medical emergencies can face bills in the tens of thousands of dollars, with air ambulance service to the United States in the range of $30,000-50,000."
