Let's do it. We're 82 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: taking a break. Yep, yep, sounds about right. So I 83 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: told my husband that I have had enough. He's obviously 84 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 1: had a change of heart and I'm not going to 85 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: be there to witness him falling out of love with me. 86 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: The mere thought is painful. He called me drama and 87 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 1: said that while his reaction was bitter and stupid, I'm 88 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 1: taking a huge leap and the wrong direction. How would 89 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: you know, dummy? Yeah, you're so stupid. You can't process 90 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: your own emotion. You can't even look three steps ahead, Yeah, 91 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: one step ahead. You can barely walk. My guy, that's true, 92 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: since he already acknowledged his mistake and is working towards 93 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: being better. He's like, oh, yeah, I've acknowledged my mistakes, 94 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 1: so you know all the past. So I tod him 95 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 1: that it wasn't true. He is still avoiding me. I 96 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 1: am a leper. I also asked to see his phone. 97 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh excuse an excuse, excuse, Here we go, 98 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 1: here we go. How do we miss that? We actually 99 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: usually catch that. He has been talking a bit too 100 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: friendly to a coworker. It started immediately after this whole 101 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: test thing, like he was determined to hurt me or 102 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 1: I don't know what he was trying to accomplish otherwise. 103 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: In one of the texts, he complained that I was 104 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: neglectful and full of myself. She thinks she's so smart, 105 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: you know, like she probably paid off the IQ test 106 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: company to get that score. 107 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 2: The second writes story, my wife paid off my IQ 108 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 2: dots to get immens. 109 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 1: Now she's emotionally abusing me. How ironic to pretend that 110 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: I'm the neglectful one when he has not even kissed 111 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: my cheek in over a month? 112 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 2: A month, a month? Oh yeah, them cheeks need to 113 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 2: be kissed. She you know, Hey, if you don't kiss them, 114 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 2: someone else is. That's right, That's all I'm saying, not 115 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 2: one of us. Maybe no Sam, Yeah, I'm single.

He has been so 133 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: cold with me, flirting with everyone that looked his way, 134 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: and now he was all loving and affectionate. He wants 135 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 1: to try therapy, and he suggested that he needed to 136 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 1: work on his insecurities with a therapist too. We have 137 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: a daughter together who's eight months old. 138 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 2: Oh no, oh no, that changes things, changes things that 139 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 2: we love more than anything. 140 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 1: But I don't know why does it feel like it 141 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: is over? And then I don't trust him anymore? I 142 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: feel like I know now what he's capable of when 143 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: faced with adversity and going through rough patches is inevitable 144 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: in every marriage. I don't like his method of dealing 145 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: with it. This is a great last line. Oh God, 146 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: I'm too intelligent to put up with this, damn bro 147 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: the final line. Yeah, okay, So like if they were 148 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: married without kids, easy, Like, I feel like he's proven 149 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: that he's not worth your time with kids. I feel 150 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: like might be worth seeing if he could repair something.

So I thirty five male, have been married 231 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 2: to my wife thirty two female for seven years. We 232 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 2: have two children together, six male and three female. 233 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: Nice. 234 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 2: She takes care of the house and baby sits the 235 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 2: kids most of the time because she's a stay at 236 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 2: home mom, but we evenly split chores and childcare on 237 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 2: weekends when I get home from work. My wife is 238 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 2: much more social than I am. We moved to her 239 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 2: home state from mine because she wanted to be closer 240 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 2: to her parents and her childhood friends. Now she's a 241 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 2: lot more social than I am. She goes on three 242 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 2: to four girls trips a year. I'm happy to babysit 243 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 2: the kids full time in her absence. Three to four 244 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 2: girls trips a year? How long are these girls trips? 245 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, a quarter for three month trips? Yes, honey. 246 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 2: When I'm home for my four days a year, I 247 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 2: do not want to see these children. I'm exhausted. I'm 248 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 2: more of a homebody anyway, so I usually just like 249 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 2: to paint in the spare room or play video games 250 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 2: every once in a while instead of traveling out of state. 251 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 2: I don't really take time off work unless we do 252 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 2: something as a family. For the past three or four months, 253 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 2: I was very busy on a major project at work. 254 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 2: I've been working sixty hour weeks, and frankly, I'm exhausted 255 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 2: with the stress. I kind of feel like, with all 256 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 2: this extra time he's spending at work, is there something else. 257 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: That she's doing or he's doing. I don't know. 258 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 2: We're hearing about a lot of girls trips We're hearing 259 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 2: about a lot more work hours for me. 260 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: Right now, it feels like the work stuff is independent 261 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: from the girls trip. 262 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 2: But what about sloppy conspiracy theories? That's true, that's what 263 00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 2: about the messy team? 264 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: Is the trip he's taking to the receptionist Vagina? 265 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 2: Wow, you know I was thinking the other way, But 266 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 2: now we have two conspiracy theories. So when the project 267 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: was finally coming to an end, I told my wife 268 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 2: I'm taking a day off and I won't be doing 269 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 2: any work around the house. Of course, I'd still clean 270 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 2: up after myself, but I didn't want to do any 271 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 2: chores or do childcare on that one day. I told 272 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 2: her that two weeks in advance, and she agreed Man's 273 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 2: asking for one day. How dare he twenty four hours? 274 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 2: How many seconds is that? At least more than three? 275 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 2: I also reminded her three days before. Man really wants 276 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 2: this day off. He desperately needs this day off. However, 277 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 2: when that day came, my wife just forgot about the agreement. 278 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 1: What do you mean? 279 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 2: I was in the painting room and my wife interrupted me, 280 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 2: telling me that she needed me to give our daughter 281 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 2: a bath because she spilt milk all over herself and 282 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 2: couldn't do it because she had to wash the dishes. 283 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: It was annoying, but whatever, it happens. 284 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 2: Later on, while I was playing video games, my wife 285 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: tells me our son needs help for his math homework. 286 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 2: I asked her, why can't she help him herself. She 287 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: said it's because she has some work to do. This 288 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 2: work was actually her best friend coming over and chatting. 289 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: For an hour. Man wanted one day, you know, one 290 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: measley day. You know. This really pissed me off. 291 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 2: So after I helped my son and the best friend left, 292 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 2: I told my wife I'm leaving the house for four 293 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 2: to five hours. She asked me where I was going. 294 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 2: I told her I'm just going to chill in the 295 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 2: park and do whatever. She said that she needs me 296 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 2: to help out with the chores and the kids. I 297 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: told her that today was my day off from all work, 298 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 2: including housework, and it's her job to babysit the kids 299 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 2: on this. 300 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: Day before I left the house. 301 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 2: When I came back, she was acting cold and calling 302 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 2: me an a hole for just abandoning her and the kids. 303 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: He asked her one day, He asked multiple times, two 304 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: weeks in advance, three days in advance on the day 305 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: of like, and he's getting shit for it. 306 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 2: Still, I think she's being dramatic. But when I spoke 307 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 2: to my sister, she said parenting is a twenty four 308 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 2: to seven jobs. 309 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: So am I the a hole is a twenty four 310 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: seven job. But I think the great thing about having 311 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 1: two parents is you can give each other breaks when 312 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: you feel like you need it exactly. It's not like 313 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: parenting can be mentally exhausted one hundred percent.
