Lanolin, you have some good points. As a workaholic...not recovering. I can honestly say that every night I lay in bed thinking that I could have and should have worked harder that day and what I could have done different. Just being on this forum and typing this right now is taking time away from finishing the updated Flat Rate pricing schedule that I am working on. And I feel anxious about it.
Has anyone here read the book by Mrs. Norman Vincent Peale "The Adventure of Being a Wife"?
Very eye opening. She talks about how a wife can make or break her husband. How she is the force that can make him 10 times more successful, productive, and wealthy than he ever could have been alone.
I agree. I am going to give a personal example and I don't want you all to think I am sniveling but this is just facts from my life.
1. I get up at 0500 most every day and try leave the house by 0600
2. I get home around 2000 so I can spend an hour with the kids. They are all teenagers now so getting them to talk is like pulling teeth.
3. I never get hugs or kisses from my wife
4. I rarely get encouragement.
5. I have to pay my wife to make lunches for me.
6. Breakfast is rarely made for me.
7. I try to start a conversation with her and am usually ignored.
8. Kind words only come when she wants something.
9. Etc.
Now I know this is filled with I statements and is only one side of the story. But in our society today most everyone views relationship as a tax return. Married filing separately. What would happen if the wife supported her husband, encouraged, cared for, made a home that he wanted to come home to...nay was eager and couldn't wait to get home to. What if women started being a "Helpmate" again?
I know for me. I would be able to get at the minimum 10% more done. If not way more. My attitude would be better. Etc.
I'll end with this. My business did 300k last year if I could increase that by 10% that's an extra 30k. What could a woman do to increase her man's productivity by 10%?
What do you want the Lord to do, DM her for you? You can hang out here wondering about someone special, or make a friendly move, that's on you. First question to her, do you like snow?There is someone I'd be interested in but it is in the Lord's hands. Who knows, maybe I'm meant to be single and just hangout in the singles forum lol
As long as they keep this CC Singles bowl of salted nuts full, I'm not going anywhere.There is someone I'd be interested in but it is in the Lord's hands. Who knows, maybe I'm meant to be single and just hangout in the singles forum lol
I don't want to drag it out but even asking for a hug is met with disdain and the question "why".?She can start by making breakfast for you! Imagine all the time you save not having to do that. You can sleep 10% more and come into work 10% more rested. Since you're more rested, you're 10% more in a better mood which in turn is 10% more work done.
I don't think you're asking too much of your wife. Have you talked to her about these things? Also have you tried hugging and kissing her first? That might shock her, but it might encourage her to do that back to you?
I will pray that she starts appreciating you more and do more on her part to make the marriage more loving and exciting.

Me too lol. Although I went to sight and sound in PA and they had these salted chocolate almonds........maybe cc needs to upgrade because they were so good lolAs long as they keep this CC Singles bowl of salted nuts full, I'm not going anywhere.
I have a bowl of chocolate covered cranberries and a bowl of chocolate covered cherries. I'm good on that. I'll just keep eating the regular salted nuts.Me too lol.

I will say, in the middle of a work day salted peanuts are a good snack. They're one of of those snacks that disappear before you know it and are like did I just kill the hole bagI have a bowl of chocolate covered cranberries and a bowl of chocolate covered cherries. I'm good on that. I'll just keep eating the regular salted nuts.
If I complained about lack of variety... They might stop filling the bowl.
Wow.....that's a good bit lolView attachment 260326
My mother fit all this into a box. I almost didn't want to unpack it, because it was so artfully packed.
So... Yeah, I'm good on chocolate for a while. I got this at the first of December and I'm still working on it.
Zoom in on that picture and scroll from side to side. It's quite impressive how much she fit in a little box.
