OB annual trip just went up
No i just think it means its ok to invite strippers this time
It went from a two day to a four day event.
And the cost went down. The only price of admission is that you have to be handy at one thing that we need around the farm.
And you can't be an a-hole.

Good luck buddy. I am sure it has not been an easy transition

I really like it. Youngest Lithette is 21 so kids aren't for the most part on their own.

I guess what I'm saying is that the ability to separate yourself from those you love most for periods of time makes for better relationships for all. Time to yourself is invaluable, and whether you are married with 4 children or single with none, you 100% need to find a way to spend time alone. If that's hitting my golf balls at the range, working out at the gym, reading a book in the park, I don't know what the hell you want to do; you need time to yourself to recharge and settle yourself. Too much time around even the ones you love most is detrimental to a good relationship.
Agreed. My husband and I both are the type of people that need regular "alone time" to function. I also think everyone should live alone(with no roommates) if possible before they get married. You learn a lot about yourself living alone. I really enjoyed the many years I lived alone before I married.

Brother, that's me exactly

I don't live alone but would have enjoyed it if that's where life had taken me. I love my wife and kids and definitely understand the enjoyable "hum" of a full house. But I'm also an introvert. I was an only child and really enjoy planning my day around my wants and personal responsibilities. I mean, just this morning it took 40 minutes to get through my 15 minute routine. My son woke up early and "got in the way" of taking care of the dog, getting coffee and lunch put together. He also is going through a phase where he doesn't want to go to the bathroom when he wakes up but wants to get his outfit on and then eat breakfast. So I had to convince him to go or else he'd piss his pants. He finally went to the bathroom and pissed all over the seat. So I had to clean it all up. Then he wanted cheerios for breakfast but we didn't have any so he got upset. Then my wife got up and couldn't find some piece of mail she needed to write a check for. If I lived alone, I could wake up, make coffee, and read a book outside while waking up. Instead.... But I feel like I would get really lonely eventually. I also think way too much and would end up getting depressed.

What lifestyle do you suggest he keeps up to avoid resentment? It takes two to reconcile and that sounds like that ship has sailed. So now what?

Just read through the thread. Seems like the consensus is that everyone who lives alone LOVES IT! Those that do not, wish they lived alone, except for time with their kids.
All in all, life alone> self+kids> self+kids+SO.
Yea, I'm not getting married. None of you "baws" even want us around except for baby making. Screw that
