Right now, my wife and I are sepparated. Not because of stuff between us but because she gets retarded sometimes about her family. I'm from Georgia and she's from Indiana. We just bought our first home back in December and I thought that it would stop all of her issues with missing her family. But, she went to Indiana on vacation back in June and didn't want to come back. Her family has some sort of magical hold on her that I don't understand. She came back but was gone again on July 18. Yesterday was 12 weeks that she's been gone and I miss my best friend. :(
The only thing that we ever really fight about is the whole family thing. We don't fight about money, my toy collecting (though she HAS slapped my hand a few times) or much else. Hell, we worked together at the same Walmart. Worked the SAME days and the SAME hours (mon-fri, 10pm to 7am off on weekends) and still didn't get on eachothers nerves that much. I'm a firm believer that if the man does right by the woman and is good to her that he should be the head of the household (even without kids). That was just the way I was raised. Also, spouses must make eachother the most important thing in their lives - not family, kids, jobs, money or anything else. This is hard for alot of people to do especially with kids. In the kind of world we live in though, kids NEED to see that kind of bond in parents. She was raised with her mom being the dominant parent and so she has issues with power. She had a chaotic childhood to say the least so I can understand why she is the way she is.
She has a problem putting me before her family and that's where all of our problems really stem from. She thinks that I'm asking too much. I think that she's not giving enough, since I put her first in my life. It's like a revolving door that we can't get past. I don't like the word divorce but at some point, when is enough REALLY enough? Yes, we could sell the house we have here and I could leave my life down here to be with her up there. But, would that really stop her from putting her family before me? How can I leave everything I have here to be with someone who can't make me #1? It would be like losing DOUBLE, ya know? Right now, I'd go for a fight over toys anyday rather than have to go through this hell...
Sorry to vent. I guess I just wanted to say (in a long drawn out way) that even though you men have your differences with your wives or girlfriends, thank God (or your god of choice) everyday that at least they're in the same state. Mine is 463 miles away...
