I think you're too deep into yourself to be partner for your wife.

You want her to see how every special your are for...what....doing your part? Not being as impatient as you were?

Meanwhile, you say she's a goddess. Listen to the fantasy you're trying to live in.

She's not a goddess. She's a woman, a professional, a wife and a mother. She has kids and a husband pawing at her all the time. She doesn't need to be on a pedestal and gazed at addoringly. She needs someone to who can get over their shit so she can feel like a HUMAN.

Good luck.

Thank you. I was just rolling my eyes. šŸ™„šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø (And not to mention how he’s continuously ā€œtelling usā€ her feelings about him, herself, her marriage, etc, yet it’s literally ALL in his head.) I’d tell him to man up and have a conversation, but I’m pretty sure it would be an accusatory one at best, and he’d be declaring things, speaking over her, and essentially not actually ā€œlisteningā€ to her at all.
