My family is my biggest passion, and I'm married to someone who apparently sees it as a burden.
Yeah, I feel the same way as you. My wife has been a great mom to our kids, but it always seemed she needed more and more of her 'own' time away from the family. I could never understand that, which is part of our issue that got us into this. However, now that she left, it seems as if she has pulled back even more with the kids and doesn't have the same interest in their day-to-day activities. She missed his first day of Kindergarten. (She's been NC really since the beginning) I'm hoping in both of our sitchs that this is part of the 'fog' and that when they get out of it, they'll realize how much their families love them.
