I appreciate your insight, but there are more aspects to all this. I have asked my wife for balance, but she wants arrangements only her way. I try to show her love and concern, but I am rejected. I try not to become overly upset and keep things in a even keel, God knows what I am going thru, but she must realize a bigger picture here. Over the years I have compromised more than what could be expected of any man, so now I feel I should draw the line despite her pain. I wish for her to consider how this affects me also. This is a very delicate matter for me to deal with and I pray for God's guiidance. He has shown me his Love and eternal concern for me, but the enemy has attacked me in so many ways and this situation may be one of them. My trust and faith in the Lord may be overwhelmed by these adversities I am confronted with, but nevertheless I pray that I stand firm in my convictions. I hope that He sees me thru all this mess. Thanks, seekerofvictory
