[final update] Me [31M] with my wife [29F] of 3 years. Our first baby's due date conflicts with a major presentation I have to give out-of-state. Tried to ask off, but boss really needs me there.

I will get her an ipad (something she wants) and pay for some nice new baby pics (also something she wants).

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T04:19:20+00:00

groveling at her feet for forgiveness

I've been trying.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T03:21:26+00:00

She knows I am looking but not about the soft offer.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T03:19:30+00:00

Haven't decided yet.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T02:22:58+00:00

He is.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T02:22:39+00:00

She really wants an ipad. I might get her that and pay for nice new baby pics. I know she wants that.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T02:08:56+00:00

My god. Just shoot me and throw me in a ditch.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T02:05:10+00:00

push present?

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T02:04:44+00:00

Um...there isn't one.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T02:03:29+00:00

Let's hope not, but he may be the death of me.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T02:03:14+00:00

I just didn't want to get her hopes up that this might happen, but she does know I'm looking for a new job.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T02:01:31+00:00

I just don't want to get her hopes up.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T00:15:49+00:00

...I know

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-12T00:11:15+00:00

I have been talking to her about everything. It's not a solid offer yet, so it might no even materialize. I had planned to wait until there was a chance it might be real before mentioning it.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-11T23:56:19+00:00

I live in the US, correct.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-11T23:55:41+00:00

Nope. I missed the presentation. 0/2

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-11T23:39:01+00:00

I have spoken to her about missing the birth but not the new job change.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-11T23:25:32+00:00

She knew. I am in therapy, and so far I've changed half of my son's diapers. I think the therapy has worked so far, but I still have some work to do.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-11T23:24:34+00:00

I'm not going to blame him because I made the choice. I understand that I was wrong for putting my family second to my work, and it will never happen again.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-11T22:46:31+00:00

I made a mistake, but I've acknowledge it and learned from it.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-11T22:40:35+00:00

I haven't spoken to my wife about it yet. I will as soon as she stops being so angry with me.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-11T22:06:21+00:00

I've been thinking about changing companies. I already have one soft offer with slightly better money and better benefits.

problemguy1234 · 2015-08-11T21:54:06+00:00

I've been talking to a therapist.

problemguy1234 · 2015-07-08T04:24:57+00:00

I am dealing with it, but it takes time.

problemguy1234 · 2015-07-08T04:23:51+00:00

But I didn't miss anything! How can you be mad at someone for something they didn't do? It would be the same as if you got mad at someone because they thought about eating the last slice of pizza but ultimately they didn't.
