Well she's told me she has NO respect for me at all but I need to say that for myself. Right now she has gone right back to her anger during the first bomb that there really is no way of talking to her.

I go back to IC tomorrow and I think that will be beneficial for me. I did a lot of great work there and realizing my W's comments lately there are some other things I need to do for myself.

She is working all weekend so I will have alone time with the kids which always lists my spirits.

GAL is the one thing where I have not excelled at DB'ing. I haven't had MY time in so long I wouldn't know where to begin. I have put so much energy into the kids and my M that I have been neglecting me.

Have you read "Hold onto your NUTS" ?

Great read to became the men you want to be.
She my not respect you now but when you continue to live by your NUTS- (Non-negotiable Unaltered TermS) she will in the future.
Showing anger against you is still a good sign. It shows she still has feeling, emotions.

Continue to do IC for you. Good Job.

make the best of it! Bottle the those feeling when your around the kids and release them in her presents. She'll start to wonder "why the he!! is bm7 so happy?" I feel like crap and so should he.
Don't let her bring you down, be the rock.

This is an important part to the process. It works on money level.
It helps you to not think about the sitch so much.
It helps you to find yourself again, let's face it, when we get married we lose out individualness(?) we become inmeshed with our spouse. We lose our Identity.
It helps rediscovering old hobbies or new ones.
IT MAKES YOU BECOME ATTRACTIVE AGAIN.

That's the key.

That's one of the things I need to work on. Being happy in front of her. She does claim that she is a happy person all the time but I bring her down.

When it is just me and the kids we have a great time. We do so many things together and my W claims that they only do the fun stuff with me because I have control of the money. This was one of the issues she had in the past that i controlled the finances. When we first started working on things I put everything down by the computer so she can have full access to anything. And when she asked for money to do this or that I never told her no.

I told her that what the kids and I do doesn't cost any money. Whether it be going to the library, the playground having play dates or just playing in the yard we're always doing something and for wahtever reason she hates me for it.

One other thing I forgot to mention is that she wanted me to sleep on the couch. I told her no. If she was the one that didn't want to work on things then I wasn't going to be the one to leave the bedroom.

I still did most of the things that I enjoyed after we got married right up until my mother died. After that I put so much focus on my family that I stopped doing everything completely. When we first started piecing i left the weekedns open that my W didn't work so we could do things together. I'm going to put a better effort into getting back to the things I like to do.

Well played. I made the mistake of moving out of our bedroom the week I was bombed ("I'll show her what wonderful guy I am and fall on my sword...") and now attempting to move back in would lead to more problems, so I remain in the spare bedroom.

I know it's hard to do. When you can do it, it shows you are completely detached.
The WAW also hates that you're happy and their suffering.

We are not responsible for others happiness. appiness comes from within. The same goes for unhappiness. It's not you, it's her . She is deciding to be unhappy when youre around.

Lame excuse.
