But the three C's of marriage is the truth for a happy marriage.

Yeah. The uprights keep moving though

Sounds like the two of you have stopped working at marriage and are just living together while raising kids.
If you don't think the two of you can work this out together, then get counseling and give it a try. Bailing with the thought that single life is so much greener at this stage isn't the answer. Unless someone is cheating, you owe it to your children and yourselves to try to make it work. If it can't be saved after genuine effort, then you may get help in how to best deal with your children in the wake of divorce and have a friendly divorce with your kids coming first. Unfriendly divorces can be more miserable than you could ever imagine not to mention hard on the children who did nothing wrong. They haven't given up on their parents.

You make a lot of good points. Appreciate it

All good points. Thanks Drew Brees

The kids are the main reason why I'm trying to figure it out instead of just jumping ship. Thanks for the thoughts

My parents got divorced when I was 5 and I turned out fine, but they stayed on good terms and both remarried so it wasn't anything ugly. All I know is that I'm getting a prenup when I get married. If the future wife doesn't like it I'll find someone else.

So how do lawyers and judges handle this?
It always seems that men have to pay by default. What if both parents are professional and make roughly the same amount.
But there's always one or two male posters here that say they don't pay shite.
This topic comes up a lot in my 13 years on tigerdroppings.

You're welcome!
My wife is hot as frick, I have like 4 kids, a Superbowl ring, and hundred of millions of dollars and all the mayonnaise half-bread sandwiches I can eat though, so that makes life easy. Worst part of my life is my slapdick hairline. I mean, you would think with my kind of money I'd get that fixed.
I'm just hoping to stay in New Orleans, raise my boys here, teach them football, put them at LSU, make them. NFL QBs, and the supplant the Mannings as the favorite sons of the city.
Also, my offensive coordinator's playcalling is atrocious lately.

My wife and I got married at 17. Been married for over 22 years and have raised 2 sons. My advice is do not let kids, bills, jobs or anything else come before your relationship with your spouse. Keep your marriage strong and most things will fall into place.

No worries, I believe you. It makes sense I guess. My situation may have been unique.

converse is also true. don't take the fact she stays home to raise the kids, cook, clean & run errands for granted either.
mutual respect in the end; you're not putting the pussy on a pedestal by taking the time to plan things alone with her, you're showing her (without saying it) that you recognize she is worth being treated as an adult.
its hard for women who don't also work outside the home to not feel like their husband isn't checking out the young hot women dressed up and wearing heels in their office and flirting with them.
showing her a little attention will do more to put her mind at ease than 100 flower bouquets ever would.
all they want is to feel they're loved by you. seriously. that's it.

This is absolutely, positively incorrect. You do realize that people change over the course of age 21 to 36, don't you? You do realize that people and inter personal dynamics change after the first child, and again after the second, and again after the third, don't you? You don't actually believe that who we are at 21 and childless is who we are at 36 with three kids, right? If so, then op is not necessarily an idiot or a bad husband.

Women are all batshit crazy bags of uncontrollable hormones that need men to control their madness.
I realize that this is a fun mantra on this board, but given that you made an attempt at a serious answer, this is simply not true either. There are millions of relationships where the woman is the rock steady, stable person and the man is the selfish, immature, impulsive, jealous, drunken, abusive lout.

Changes don't happen over night. If you wake up and realize you're both different people than you failed at growing together.

No. There aren't.

Scorned? What's that? I feel like your not saying it right. You mean, like corn? Are you asking me if I want some corn?
Posted on 12/15/16 at 5:59 pm to Breesus
Scorned, as in insulted or burned or screwed over by a woman or women. To suggest that the man isn't the problem in millions of relationships is silly and can only be seriously claimed by kids or the embittered.
