So yesterday started out with my wife getting "all dolled up" to go out job hunting, still really hard to get used to my stay at home Mom going back to work. When my W told my D5 about going back to work she started to cry, saying "I just want you to stay home". Made my W all weepy.Just standing there watching her curl her hair was so punishing, she's so damn beautiful, and knowing she feels nothing for me is sometimes more than I can bear, broke down a couple of times....weak.

So as she was leaving my S,2 was crying alot, this affected my W who started to get emotional and had to leave quickly. Good, is that wrong for me to feel that way? Wanting her to feel pain is not the most mature way to think, but damn it feels good.

So I phoned her to get her to pick something up in town about 5 mins later and she was obviously shaken, so I just assured her that it would all work out, which seemed to escalate her feelings, then I told her to "knock em dead" with regards to the job hunting and that brought on the waterworks. So I left it at that. Job well done.

Later after she got home we packed some snacks and a couple of drinks and went off to a local lake with the kids. We just sat on the beach watching the kids play, great afternoon,great conversation, funny how a couple of drinks loosens two people up and can really help the lines of communication.

Thanks again to everyone on here for your words, you all help me more than I could ever express.
