I should probably add, NONE of this changes one iota of what Bond, Gabby, 25yrs and others are telling you about WORKING ON YOURSELF.
I am only adding to the conversation that element that I see is missing, and it's TACTICAL -- just a key means of communicating, and learning to set and enforce boundaries. It does not change what your STRATEGY should be, and that is to WORK ON YOURSELF, and building your own confidence and attractiveness, and working on your wife's legitimate marital complaints, and being the best father and role model you can be for your kids!
My WAW has a really awful cold so I offered to take her to her court appearance for something business related. Then I spent the evening watching "The Last Ship" with my S16, she actually decided to join us and sat next to me...
It's interesting I mentioned some upcoming business meetings and she wanted the who what where and why...
I keep hearing all the comments from everyone in my thread and I just completely diverted any conversations about anything but my S16 and S21.
It was actually refreshing to enjoy an evening without relationship talk...
