Quoting jethro:
IMHO, your H works too much, is away from home too much, and doesn't pay attention to the most important things in his life.


I agree--and a lot of guys come to grief because of that behavior. Ironically, the motivation often is the desire to provide the spouse/family with "the very best" home, possessions, vacations, opportunities, etc.

Unfortunately, that usually means lots of time away from home or just being preoccupied and "unavailable." And then there's that additional "decompression" time on the golf course, in front of the tube, or at the bar. More time away and unavailable.

That urge to be the "provider" is very powerful--and successful ones really are more attractive in womens' eyes. But guys, just being the "physical" provider is only the tip of the iceberg.
