The big punch - Redux

[Redo]

Thanks 25, SL:

I agree with you on the love comes with respect. Never realized that it was important.

I am an engineer. So i look at everything logically and analytically. I know that my wife does not work that way and i have tried my best in our marriage to be more emphatic and look at things from her shoes. But some of what she is asking flies in face of all reason.

I think i understand why my is being this way. Just a theory. I know for a fact that wife is totally crazy after daughter. Very very protective. That is why she wanted the divorce in the first place. Now she wants nothing in daughter's life to change. Her parents, her activities, her dreams for daughter (and i guess mine too). So she knows that if daughter is ferried between two places, her life would be interrupted. That is why she is fighting so hard. But again in the middle of all this wife does not want to give up her freedom of staying with her folks, having things her way. She always told me that in life everything had consequences. I am surprised that she's not realizing that herself.

Thanks guys. Really appreciate your help!
