Now that I have some time, I wanted to respond to your concerns. Besides I have the house to myself and as we all know, freedom to express oneself.

Stoltz, I pretty much understand how you feel about the eggshell part. One minute they're one way and the next minute the opposite. Not sure if I can handle the swings any longer. It's almost as if you have to play it moment to moment and name of the game is survival. Such a shame. You sound like the kind of guy that puts it out there only to have it handed right back to you. A coin toss like you said. No way to live right? No way to "win". Yet these women have no f*cking clue how lucky they are that we devote ourselves the way we do. And when the hammer drops cause it's the last straw they don't know why......

A person can only take so much. If some things were different, I'd be gone. But, I do not want my daughter to be raised in a "broken home". I want her to be loved by both of us even if we don't love each other. The great choice, staying together for the sake of the kids....

Hell, we had a blowout the other day and she threatened to leave, and I said "you're not taking my daughter". She said that was fine with her. I was floored. Not at all what I expected to hear.

I am currently seeing a therapist who also does marriage counseling. I see her on Friday and I can't wait. Really need advice and I would recommend that you get some outside assistance so you are equipped to handle the mindf*cking you're clearly getting from your wife. We don't deserve it!
