for starters how about not asking strangers for what should be within you. if you have to prove anything, you ain't growedup.
Quit surfing and posting vanities. That's a good start.
I think we need more info than that. If this is only about taking out the garbage or turning off the lights then maybe your wife is too quick to give up on you.
Marriage counseling. Sounds like that's your best bet.
Do you go to a church? Do have someone to talk with?
I was a lot like you. A stint in the army helped me see the important things in life. Not saying that is the answer for you...
Divorce, you will be happier than you could ever imagine.
Oh dear...
I am having trouble growing up
Put lifts in your shoes and wear a fake mustache.
If that fails, buy an extra long overcoat and ask your friend if you can ride on his shoulders.
Don't you have close friends, or clergy, or other families where you can talk with in person? They know you better than us, strangers living--perhaps--thousand miles away.
And perhaps you should ask people to send you a private reply instead of public postings.
Think of others first, before yourself. Put your wife and child's best interests at the forefront of your activities before you look after yourself.
A pathetic 10.
Husband, love your wife (unconditionally).
Wife, obey your husband in the Lord.
That's all you need to know.
ps. I'm divorced.
Get sceened by a psychiatrist who specializes in adults with ADD. You mgiht have a bit of ADD, or you simply might just be lazy.
You may have attention deficit disorder. I struggle with remembering simple daily tasks as well. However, this shouldn't be a cause for divorce, so I suggest your problem is two-fold -- you and the wife -- and that you and your wife might benefit from marriage counselling.
The situation you describe is too vague for anyone to give you advice.
I think a good start would be going to a marriage counselor, or clergy if you are a church goer, rather than posting a vanity on FreeRepublic. Good luck to you.
You don't need the help you Wife and son need all the help they can get putting up with you! Joint the Army and do a tour in Iraq. That will be a start to your recovery and will give your family some deserved rest.
Let her divorce you. You're clearly too good for her anyway.
Sounds like both you and wife needs to grow up. Go to marriage counseling.
Your wife doesn't know how to take out the garbage and lock the doors at night?
She's the one who needs to grow up.
Surf on, my Man.
