Fellas, It hasn't cost your wives one single thing to carry on as they have these many months of your limboland prison sentences. And that is why your Work is unappreciated. They see it. I'll bet a paycheck on it. But there is not a damned reason to credit you a bit of it, move one inch toward reconciliation or take a bit of responsibility b/c staying put COSTS THEM NOTHING.
They just get to keep on slamming your efforts, spinning your outreach into something sinister, projecting their poor attitudes on to you b/c .... they can .... and nothing bad will happen. B/c nothing bad has happened. They still have you tied up so no one else can have you. They still have an intact family. The still get to be SAHM with their children in a fine home. They still have beautiful wedding rings (one of 'em even has a brand new one!). And they still have y'all steppin' and fetchin'.
They SEE your Work. They just don't have to do anything about it.

VERY GOOD POINT. Well, FWIW, I am pulling out of limboland. Had enough.
And, Thinker gets a hall pass given his MIL's situation.
But, I hear your point Greek, very clearly.
And, point of clarification, on that wedding ring thing, one of em doesn't know where her's IS. And nobody's happy in the GIMA household about that, most of the all the one who paid for it. But, this is HER problem, not mine. Wouldn't have been lost if it had been oh, I don't know, ON HER FINGER.
