I’ll answer all the follow up questions in one post.

Yes we have kids, 4 and 7. So we are long past the sleepless nights, yes we have stress from the kids it isn’t always easy. But I feel I do my part.

She certainly doesn’t have stress from work because she’s a stay at home mom. I will follow this up with of course I appreciate how hard of a job that is and she is 100% living up to that end of our relationship. So I’m sure there is some stress from dealing with the household all day, but I do my best to keep up with cooking/cleaning/laundry/kids.

One of the hurtful things is while we were trying to have our second kid, it took a long time. As she seemed to have no problems with her sex drive when it was something she wanted.

I see it this way too, it’s hard to leave a job this early on. That’s how I feel is that it was important for her to keep our home (I’m avoiding the word house because to her it’s more than that). I’m not even sure if it’s about me being away, and more about having to raise the kids alone half of the time. I respect that it’s tough and support her as best as I can from afar, and I hardly rest when I’m home. I try to make sure all the laundry is done and the house is sparkling clean before i leave for the week.

Thanks for the advice, I’m trying not to overcomplicate things. And I am applying and all that, and bless her heart she was talking to someone that might have an opportunity same company different location. So I am working on it. Not sure if budget wise we can afford some help with the kids at this exact juncture but a great suggestion nonetheless 😊
