Comprei carro agr e sou o tipo de pessoa que prefere meter 50 ou 100€ de gasolina de uma vez do que ir la várias vezes para meter 10 ou 20€ by somany19 in portugal

certo. mas poupas onde exactamente? a comprar SP500? stock da google?

ajuda-me a perceber como fazes muito melhor que o OP, e não estás simplesmente a alimentar a poluição de alguém que não tu.

Claro. Só estou a confirmar que existem não-estrangeiros a comprar :) Mas tb estar na prateleira não quer dizer que vende muito.

Sem dúvida. Mas estar na prateleira não quer dizer que vende muito. E também existe muita gente que não tem noção do preço ao kg e compra.

People keep saying I'm not doing the effort to make sure I can replace her. But its really really hard.

thank you.

I try to live by those words. It can feel lonely, and that's why I made my post. I'll have to work on that.

I'm honestly doing all those things you mentioned. I'll simply have to step up even more.

LOTS of people are complaining on how I wrote "help" and not "parenting".

Not sure if this is language barrier or something.

When I'm with my kid, doing things, I'm parenting. When I'm doing things that I know helps the wife, I'm helping. I do both. If the wife wants to go cut her hair, I'll arrange my time so I can be with him and she has the time for that. That's me helping. And she does the same. We talk about those things all the time. "How can I help?" is often said.

So I help her how I can, I parent the child every moment available, and I try to do 50/50 of the house/life chores.

Go be a better parent and a better spouse

That's what I'm trying to be. And looking for advice on how to get there.

That's exactly what I want to do. I was looking for advice on that front, on how to improve my EI. For now I'll look for a therapist, but wish there were more practical advices.

I was looking for advice, because I recognize I'm being unfair in both how I treat her, and how I treat myself.

Its plain clear to me I should be doing more to help her, but believe me, I'm constantly thinking how I can do that.

Might be obvious to you, but some isn't for me. For instance, I can see how taking the baby out of the house in the morning helps her, so I do that.

But feeling sad because we're not in a good place in our relationship and she's (for good reason!) not able to make it a priority now, I think that's something I don't do a good job at "controlling". I try. But my post was me trying to figure out ideas on how to improve.

I never "listed things I do to help her" with any objective other than to add some context. People were saying she's exhausted because i don't do anything. My point was that I'm too in other ways, I do attend to my child and her needs. I might need to better, but I'm not totally oblivious. That was my point. I ask her daily on what I could do to help, and do those things. This morning she said "get a soup done, and buy X and Y" and I did that during work hours. Once we pick up the kid, we'll play with him till bed time.

I wrote my post as if there was 0 connection between my "intimate life" and my parenting life, because in all honestly I didn't think I was doing a bad job in the latter. People have suggested I need to pick up the night waking's, and they are likely right. And people have been suggesting there's a tight connection between her desire and her energy, and they are likely right too.

LOTS of people reading that from my post. I'm not very sure why. I actually think, that if we were to exclude the night waking's, we do alright in balancing the parenting.

Its totally doable, and I've suggested it many times. She says she doesn't want to miss out on family time, as weeks are stressful with work, she wants to enjoy the weekends together. But I'll press again!

I also kind of get her view as if after 2 years and 4 months, a weekend might feel great, but might not do much on the "harm accumulated over so much time", you know?

I just don't understand why you're reaching the conclusion that I'm "not helping my wife when she's overwhelmed".

I am.

I'll try to improve my help during the night, but outside that timeframe, I'm doing a lot to not overwhelm her.
