Dom, My daughter and will always be #1 in my life. That's the biggest reason I am working as hard as I am. I am paying for my W to go to colledge to become a nurse so I am the sole provider for my family. I just started back at my work 1 week before S. I worked there a while back so it is not takeing me long to work my way back up the ladder. The reason I went back is because I finally have a real shot at a secure financial future for my family. In another couple of months the long hours will decrease to regular hours, but I have to pay my dues again first. Also, right now I am trying to think on the positive side that my W and I will get back together. I guess I feel that it would not be right for me to jepordize our financial well being because I've hit hard times in my life. But trust me, the minute I see that this job will continually require long hours and keeping me from my family will be the minute I start looking for other opportunities. Thanks for your input, it's always apreciated and well received.
What do you guys think about initiating R talk? Im not talking about doing it every day but if my W does not bring it up for a couple of weeks is it ok for me to ask how she's feeling or if she feels that the seperation is starting to work/help?
