This where the rubber meets the road, isn't it? Here we are to begin to have self-control. I have a real hard time with mental control. I am going home tonight to a wife that says I'm more important to her than her crush, but spends all day with him and I am left listening to talk all about her day and be so happy now that they have a good "professional" working relationship. I need her to leave that job and she won't do what I need her to do to have peace.

I feel so alone. Her new thing is calling me weak because I hurt over this. WOW!! I never dreamed it would work out this way between us.

Woah...slow down....you know I know that your wife doesn't see things as you do...and that you feel that you need her to leave her job in order for you to have peace...but how about instead you showing her the love and kindness of Jesus....right now you can't change your wife...and you are so still trying to...why not just work on you and let God change your wife...if it's God's will that she leaves her job that He can get her to do so...so how about asking God what His will is...

Prayers for you.

luv ya

Yeah you are right. I had a weak moment there! I got my head on straight before I got home. I listened to some smooth Jazz, prayed...Just cooled down and tried to think my through. I also hung a couple curtain rods and that took my mind off things too. Sorta like exercise.

At least we talked tonight and didn't argue!! I guess that is progress.
