25 wrapped things up in a very clear fashion for you.
Everybody feels overwhelmed from time to time. What we all must learn is how to deal with feeling overwhelmed in a positive way.
Basic life skills such as problems solving and managing daily things seems to be an area where you could use assistance. Learning that instant gratification is usually not permanent gratification is important. Not letting excitement or frustration lead you when making decisions would add an element of calm to your life that seems to be lacking.
You want to know what will attract your W back to you and here you have many women telling you what is NOT attractive. As a 34 year old woman, if I was involved with a man that said he bought a Droid phone because his excitement got the better of him and he kept rambling on about it like a kid with a new toy I would be turned off.
I am attracted to men that are on top of things, confident, able to find solutions and use resources and don't see everything in such a black and white fashion. I don't care if they are a garbage man or the CEO of a company.
Each month I type out a goal sheet but I break the goals down this way:
Business Goals Financial Goals Personal Goals
Then, for each category I add sub categories. That way I don't have an overwhelming list of "to do's" and things are far more manageable.
I only recently started doing this (as in the last year) and it has made a HUGE difference in my life.
A few months ago you were so worried about retirement and buying a house and car. Yet you just emptied a retirement account to pay off debt and fund a holiday for your children. The day it came out you purchased an expensive phone yet you worry that your W will never see you as a solid provider.
