So what's your plan at this point?

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do.
I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering.

Still working on maintaining all the 180s. Busting my butt on the household chores, trying to give little gifts when possible and doing my best to maintain a PMA as much as I can do I'm fun to be around when we are spending time together.

Still here, been reading other people's posts but don't really know what to write about mine. I feel like the ups and downs keep coming.
I'm getting exhausted with being the only one who wants to make the marriage work. I feel like I ha to be perfect almost all the time and when I'm not it's like 3 steps back.
I need to keep working on me. I still have a lot to learn. I need to get a second job for now and find something new that pays better after the end of the school year. Teaching just doesn't allow me to provide for my family in the way I need to. I also need to find it within myself to take a more leadership role in my household and try to establish fun within our relationship so she starts to feel better about me.
So yeah, no biggie, right?

Took a month off from the site. Was getting depressed by all the new people having their lives torn apart. Not a great decision, I need to be here more. That said, I'm going to start a new thread...if you do read this and/or know/followed my mess, stay tuned...thanks.

Been wondering about you! It's true, there are a lot of new faces. But a number of old ones, too. All just plugging away...

I'll keep an eye out for your new thread.
