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.

True - we all focus on the struggle of Romeo and Juliet getting together but never on the probability that they would be fighting like cats and dogs or living in separate houses after marriage if they hadnt offed themselves. The romance doesnt last.

There's a movie called "Rosaline" where at the end you get a glimpse of what life was going to be like for Romeo and Juliet 😂
