The unfaithful wife...that's me..

[K4D]

Thats cool. I am an analyst for a healthcare company. I am looking to move into a business analyst role or a marketing analyst role. I am also studying C# and ASP.Net 2 high profile languages and database systems. The programming pays about double what I am making now and also pays what my W is making and the business analyst pays what she is making also. I'm not sure that I will get the business analyst position. But we'll see. The marketing analyst if I get the interview pays almost as much, but not quite. Still plenty to live on though and build up savings. I am really having to set up my future now that the second income looks like it is probably going away.

Before what I was making was fine because my W is working to. But now, trying to raise 2 kids on my own, I have to improve the financial situation.

If I go the programming route, I will eventually turn it into a senior programming analyst. Then my future would be totally set. I don't care for Dallas where I live. But there are perks. My kids are here because this is where my W wants to live and the jobs are unlimited. So no worries about keeping employed. Just gotta make sure I stay on top of the top paying jobs out there.

I gave my W the business analyst position she has now originally because I was laid off and had a great severance package and was just messing around with contract work. The agency originally came to me for it and she hated her job, so I suggested her figuring either way it goes into the same bank account and helps us out. Little did I know she was going to use that job to D me and find OM higher up than me. Hindsight. Geez. She is all into upperscale image and party now. None of us can look normal anymore in public. She spends so much money to look good. $110 haircuts, bikini waxes, upscale clothes, eating out nice restaurants, etc. The money has totally changed her. I never thought I would see that. She started working out again. She hasn't done that since I caught her seeing OM back in October. Makes me wonder.

She has emotionally detached from me and I guess this money and OM has helped in that process. She no longer feels like she needs me. She loves to spend money though. I asked her if I get this BA position, it would basically double what I make if she would reconsider. She got very mad at me and said I was calling her a prositute. I wasn't. I was thinking we could have a really bright future together and get a great retirement set up. Probably was a dumb thing to ask. I took a long shot and it just backfired like everything els.

I actually love and prefer Florida. Either Orlando or Tampa. There are lots of good jobs out there to along with beaches and pretty areas. Houses are more pricey, but as long as the pay is there, no biggie. But I am stuck here in Dallas for the next 11 years until my 7 year old daughter turns 18. If my wife has remarried, I'll probably head down that way at that point. I also love Daytona Beach and the theme parks in Orlando. Life is so laid back there.
