[QUOTE="PatriotsGirl, post: 418367"] Thank you for speaking a bit of truth that I really wanted to say last night but didn't want to come across as mean. Jena, I am in [I]no way[/I] what so ever being mean here, but dang girl this is is something you need to hear. He is busting his butt all day - he [I]absolutely[/I] should have dinner waiting for him when he gets home. Especially if you do not work. When my husband was the only one working and I was home with the kids, I would clean the house, do all of the laundry and had dinner waiting for him when he got home. I was kind of shocked when I read that last night, to be honest. Another bit of honesty while I am at it....I think you coddle these kids too much. Okay, they witnessed a fight. Welcome to life. They should never be allowed to walk around disrespecting him. That certainly doesn't help a thing and if you are not sticking up for him when they are disrespecting him, that will only make him feel much worse. If you love your husband and want your relationship to work - you need to put a little more focus and energy on him...make sure he comes home to a warm meal, clean clothes and a smiling wife. Put some time aside for [I]just[/I] him. Your children are plenty old enough that you should be able to put time aside to be alone and enjoy each other. Make him feel loved, appreciated. You know, thinking about it, maybe this is why he was talking to his ex so much. He is obviously lacking something in your relationship (and communicated to you what it is) and is starting to look elsewhere for it. Time to fight to keep your man if you want him. :) Again, please don't take this as being mean. I am being honest and giving you advice because I have been there...(((HUGS))) [/QUOTE]
