Not trying to dog-pile, though I know we are
But it's a warm and loving and supportive and wanting only the best for you kind of dog-pile!!!
Which is always better than the steaming and stinking dog-pile.
Doesn't matter that we took him off that boat, Shepherd, it's the place he's going to live from now on.

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
and I tend to post about stuff when I just need to get something off my chest so it sounds worse than it really is.And this is a great place to do exactly that.
It's just that she really reads as overreacting. Like cold fusion with side order of extra overreaction, hold the logic and nice please.
And you are an amazing father. Truly.

Herding cats for fun
I say the heartfelt advice is amazing too. Sometimes blunt and to the point is very good.
I shall sit here being very pleased that I have invested Actual Venture Capital ($1.00) in Matt's Clue-By-Four proposal, because I like to imagine getting to use it sometimes.
Dear Mrs. Gud: Grrrrrr. No argh for you!

There are definitely some wise people. It's tough for me to know what to do, she's not a bad person and when things are going well, then, well, things go well. But I know she has some self-esteem issues that I think fuel a lot of lashing out when she's stressed or such. Also, she tends to intrepret things as "you don't care about me" that also comes from the same source. Hopefully, I'm just overreacting and this will blow over without causing much damage.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Gud, I think you're married to my mom.

Because books.
Also, she tends to intrepret things as "you don't care about me" that also comes from the same source.
The thing is, she has to realize that not watering the plants doesn't negate caring for your kids singlehandedly for four days. And working on top of it. *That's* caring. That's being a committed, loving partner and parent.
I just hope you know that. I want her to see it, too, but I'm more interested in *you* knowing that, at least from what I read here, you're doing everything you can do to make your marriage work.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm proud of you, son. Sorry about the sucky people making doing your job difficult.
Psst. Tell him it's OK if he dates a caucasian devil woman...

And working on top of it.
I didn't, I took time off. The only working was around the house. The kids were super good and made it easy.
