Since my last update, things were going great until 2 nights ago she unleashed on me. This was the first time she yelled at me since the bomb last year.
The economy has hurt my business and things have been getting tight. She is getting a little stressed about it, but last night she blew up at me.
I have been trying to start a new business and that has taking up a bunch of my time as I think it is something that eventually could be huge. But it is going to take a long time to see anything.
Doing that I have not been concentrating on my first business and it has dropped off, combining lack of focus and this economy it has hit hard on me.
She threatened to leave me and take the kids in 6 months if I did not turn it around. Screamed that I always say it will be allright and it never is.
I asked her how her business is going, she is an interior artist and she has gotten like 1 job in two months, brought in a whopping $300. "Don't blame this on me", she said. She asked if I should get another job, I asked what job is out there that can make $80,000 that I can get.
I know she is just stressed, and I received a $5,000 check I was expecting and have turned my attention back to my core business and will make more money, but it really pisses me off to threaten me like that.
I sat there and validated her feelings that I am stressed also, but I am working hard on both projects but I was relying on other people to keep money flowing in and I would not do that anymore.
She has been pleasant since then, but cold if that makes since. Could be just me overanalyzing her behavior. First time the knots came back, but after that sleepless night of planning to make things better, I have already gotten back on track.
Confident in my every move, told her that she and I are on a spending freeze until I right the ship. This check should passify her until more business comes in, and it will, I have 7 new clients coming in the first of next week to Feb. 15.
But damn, I sure would like a partner, then one that threatens me to get the family more money or she is taking my kids.
I think she was trying to light a fire under my ass, and she gets worried with finances, so that might of been just a talk out of her ass moment.
But she also might know that her threat last year, really improved me as a man, maybe this will get me to give her what she wants in a man again?
Sorry for the rambling, any comments or suggestions.
