He answered saying that the furniture work bu that all th kids and ME dont know how to care about the furniture
So... what do you think will be a 180
1- Throwing away the furniture without asking again?
2- Letting the furniture in the meadle of my home
3- Putting the furniture in place and trying to fix them?





These depressed guys often worry about money - so why not fix the furniture up in some realy creative way?

2- When he arrive home i use to be on PC.. so, now

I used to be drinking a glass of wine, dancing around the kitchen listening to a good upbeat CD while making dinner.

3- Almost every weekend we do the same.. going out with children to eat or something like that... what do you think will be better as a last resurce thecninc
a- doing plans for all differents, like going to beach (maybe he right now isnt so open for this or maybe doing this i will show him too much interst on doing things together
b- Doing plans alone, with my kids. (can this acctitude distance us more?)





What worked before? Usually, I would suggest going to do fun active things with the kids that he might enjoy, and inviting him but not being concerned whether he accepts or not - he might decline but then regret it later when he hears how much fun you had. Also, maybe you should go out at night with frineds and come back a little late???? Let him worry about what you are doing a little bit?
