Prioritize wife please
Laughter is the best medicine. Ever checked out the #LaughYouWay to a better marriage videos? There are a dozen on #Vimeo and #YouTube. As a guy, here’s one of my favorites — there are great ones for both genders. https://vimeo.com/292992021
Best thing I ever did in this scenario - took two weeks off work , took wife on vacation and talked things through . It’s not easy when this happens - but the only long term solution is to prioritize the wife
Agree VP1. Hit the reset button
Think of what your SO always asks you to do, and do that. This should start to help.
Same as at work btw. Good luck !
My boyfriend is doing the same thing and it’s been 4 months but he hasn’t been able to figure out how to balance me and work. I am planning to kick him out soon. Unless he really makes it up to me, you are probably treading the same waters
Yes he is never Available to have a honest conversation he can’t even make time for it and everytimw I bring it up it’s always ending a fight or he thinks I am nagging. I just need to be heard and it’s not happening. I think I am done and exhausted trying now.
My wife left me and my lover also did - I was always busy. I’ll soon become a Partner though - I hope is worth it
Do not do this
Been there brother. Hang in there
This too shall Pass!
You got this, sir! Take a deep breath and relax for a bit. Then go and apologize to your wife, tell her that you are not yourself because of work stress and that you need her support at this vulnerable time. Win her over to your side. Then tackle the work. It is not as important as the relationship with your family. If the current work situation doesn't work out, there are plenty of other companies out there. All the best! You got this!
Hang in there
I mean, tough day at work and an argument with your wife... a bad day is what it is... try to enjoy the weekend, reset and attack what is coming to you
Chin up pal. Life is a bumpy ride. Work will always test you in unimaginable ways, but the one thing you can always rely on is your family.
Go give your wife a nice long hug and tell her you love her. You’ll feel some of that stress/anxiety evaporate. There’s nothing better in life than the warmth of an embrace from your loved ones.
Nope, lover left me 4y after the wife, although I have to reckognize there was an overlap period. But breakup was due to work
Please tell me you don’t have kids
Am pregnant when I don’t want a baby rn and don’t know how to fake it at work anymore
Take it one day at a time. Confide in your SO or family or friends about how you’re feeling. Be kind to yourself. Pregnancy hormones are no joke so take that into consideration. I was one of those women who didn’t get all emotional about being pregnant. I felt like there was something wrong with me. But when I saw my daughter for the first time, the world shifted. You can’t anticipate that kind of love - it’s beyond description. I wish that for you too
Work and life are not two ends of the see saw. What happens at one can impact the other. Yes there are time you have to trade off but very often there is a interrelationship.
