Well she wasnt very fond of the idea of me staying at home, she believed that a mans role was to work and provide for the family and i agree with her i just couldnt manage to do it. As for her problem, she didnt receive any freedom when she was younger or affection from her father so when she got with me i hadnt any idea how to run a successful relationship and as such she started pursuing other men for the attention that they would give her. Her infidelities caused me heartache and pain but i would always take her back, she eventually got a hold of herself about 4 years into our relationship and after that point had no incidents. I didnt receive any counseling for the fact that i didnt have any money nor the real drive to do so. As for when things were going good between us, i wouldnt pester her and she put forth real effort in our marriage (though she said she was merely trying and believeed that you shouldnt have to try to be happy that it should just be).
We would go out to dinner from time to time but not nearly enough, and we spent a lot of time together at home and when the kids went to sleep that was our time to spend with each other. Like i said it wasnt great but it was tenuosly enjoyable.
