Caught up a bit. First comment...why is that we LBS dads look like loving handsome men in the pix? Em...your a good looking man with beautiful daughters (coming from a straight guy). You'll find love again...trust me.
Next. You are where I am. Just protect yourself. Trust me. The ILY and I want this to be smooth and nice thing won't last. Have you ever seen an 'amicable' D? Well..at least without SOME conflict? Forget it.
Also...in the beginning of my sitch, my W wanted me to cosign a loan for over $100K to buy a salon. Right. I also got the 'everything is in your name and I have nothing'. Try and keep all decisions FINANCIAL and not tied to emotional/marital things. My line was "this is not safe for either of us financially right now" (inside, I wanted to say...OK..come back to the M and I'll sign. Thank goodness I never said that.)
Going back to the ER doc thing. I'm sure you know the percentages on that R. Stay the course. Do JUST as you are doing. Steady....listen....etc. Don't fret about the time complaints. She needs to blame you for something. SPEW.
Finally, as you know, I have a D4. One day, I hope to tell her how much she made a big difference in my life someday. Em...I've read this...check it out...it will touch you. Your little girls will choose a man based on YOU. Don't let you W deter you from being that man.....don't let guilt anger or resentment affect YOU and taint them. Just be you...the great dad that you are.
Hang in. I feel your sitch. I support you. Stay tuff.
