Wayward Wife, my addiction, advice needed

[PigPen]

She wants the old happy Trumpet, she has said so, but I'm just not there if there is no reciprocation.

Think about that. REALLY think about that, bro. She wants the exact same thing DB actions/principles produce.

I'm going to translate that statement into something more objective:

"My W wants to see her husband as a strong, positive, independent man but I will not be that person unless she gives me what I want first."

Houston, we have a problem! ^^^

Now go and sin no more.

This. This. And, This!!

Be everything you want to be in a man regardless of how she acts. That's power. That's putting the power dynamic back in your pocket. It's irrelevant how she acts, you're a man and will live your life to the best of your ability with or without her.
