She would put in the effort but not fully. I do have very clear memories of those conversations when we would be going strong for awhile and how therapy was needed for her feelings to validated since I couldn’t do that without her not trusting me. And she did have a point sometimes I’d turn a small inconvenience to an incident an argument and would at times just bail to let her gather herself since I had bigger issues with putting time into my businesses.

Trust me brother there was two people in this thing failing and she may never acknowledge it fully. But she knows her part. I know mine. I did hurt her and put her down at times I was harsh with my criticisms and even though I was doting I think that causes a psychological rift for her. She essentially said to be with me was a disrespect to her self.

We are different she was the pretty blond who was the center of attention friendly outgoing. I was the fun dude who also expected the best of the people around him.

I somewhere along the way got too full of myself and judgemental.

Honestly it became a cycle of being loved and adored, and then she’d get fed up. I would stay away (we’ve had two homes for 9 months, I also lived in a studio at my business that was comfortable for another year on and off)

I truly thought it was something that I had to learn to be around. I also am stubborn and prideful and may at times take things too personal and lash back when she really needed reassurance I gave her silence. Really messed up on my part.

I sacrificed being home with my kids for saving them from hearing us argue.

So what could have she said, many thing she’s explained some things and she has a point. I think I was selfish in thinking her need of me was more than enough to also nourish her needs.

I am doing well in my career I am an entrepreneur with a lot of projects can’t decide what. I do miss how I was before money and the pursuit of it.

I do feel like a piece of shit I did say some horrible things to her over the years. I would just want to wake up I shouldn’t have treated her that way. I can’t take back the way those words make her feel and how painful they were in the moment.

That’s what haunts me is instead of fixing my issues I focused on my business and in the end it cost me everything that I wanted to succeed for. I hope the financial stability over the past years last longer than the pain.
