asmith Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 I'm more concerned with the two kids in the front, is that boy showing that girl something in his bag or his pants????
Fishhound Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 Everyone laughs, but those were better times and more conducive to family life. I feel cheated as I will never have the luxury of the stay at home wife. Today it is almost impossible to raise a family on a single income. So for me as I'm sure for many of you, after hard days work it is come home and pitch in with the chores around the house.

gostgost Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 Exactly what I was doing this morning ducting and running! Got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning after getting little to no sleep last night and took it out on the wife this morning. I'll be sleeping with the dog tonight and if I'm lucky the dog will share his pillow.

Lisa just called me and said if I answer this she will throttle me :-D From experience it is never too late to wipe the slate clean and start again. Takes mutual commiment to do so and mutual effort to maintain. I need a new slate every 12 months ;-)
Colt45 Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 » What happens when you care for your wife but things aren't the way they » should be because there isn't trust anymore? Seriously? I suppose it depends on the depth of the indiscretion. There is always forgiveness. Intensity of love can ebb and flow. But when all trust is gone.......
asmith Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 » I need a new slate every 12 months ;-) Mate you need a new slate and a new chango bracelet every 12 months, if you are to stand any chance.

MaltPointer Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 » What happens when you care for your wife but things aren't the way they » should be because there isn't trust anymore? This seems like a serious question, so let me give a serious, multi-part answer. Just because you care for your wife doesn't mean you have to stay married to her. I cared for my ex-wife immensely . . . you might say that I stayed married to her as long as I did because I LIKED her, but had lost the ability to LOVE her. Once I realized that, I moved on, and my life is worlds better for it. Your mileage may vary, of course. Taking the other tack, and here I agree with the other commenters--if trust has been broken, it absolutely CAN be rebuilt. My advice on this is to have the courageous conversation that needs to be had, and let it lead you where it leads you. What I mean by that last is to not get hung up on steering your way to a particular outcome . . . you may have the courageous conversation and find that you have a fix-able situation. Equally likely, you may find that it's time for the relationship to end. My strong counsel is to be ready for both outcomes, and don't have the conversation till you're there. It's a long life, dude, and the world is full of amazing people. You do NOT have to be in a miserable place. and if you need help, ask for it . . . early, often and repeatedly. Be well . . .

A sorry goes a long way, and Lord knows I am not perfect.
