So first off people you should be a little less freakin' judgmental. If we weren't all struggling with our marriages we wouldn't be here. Do I like the marriage I am in...hell no. You don't like yours either or you wouldn't be here trying to figure something out. So I'm trying to figure it out. If I occasionally vent a little bit to much and it is to your disliking then go ahead and throw the first stone in your little glass house.
Ive heard it said around here that if something stings, then you should really investigate within yourself why? Most likely it's true.
Glad to hear your coaching session and followup went well.
Keep at it.
Completely agreed. When it stings, you need to look at it. And it definitely stung.
Juju wasn't throwing stones or being judgmental. She was giving you a chance to stop, and look within and refocus on your goal. From the outside, we can look at your complaints and it seems like anything to vilify your wife and complain about her. That often happens when we are frustrated. Frustration is understandable.
You say you are not happy in your M. So is nitpicking at your W and judging her parenting going to make it any better? No!!!!
I mean, take my advice with a grain of salt coming from a woman who had her daughter believing that really is such place as the looney bin and mom is going to go if she doesn't stop arguing with me all time.
An excellent parenting tactic? Nah. Does it make me a bad parent and an awful liar? Nah. My daughter knows I am the one who keeps her safe, loved her unconditionally and will always be there for her no matter what.
