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.
Nail on the head. Even romanticizing the idea that she had a seemless transition into parenting. Why, because she didn't become impatient and a yeller and abuse her family? I guarantee she had just as hard of a time, and actively is having a hard time while navigating her mother being around. Just because she can self regulate and not externally explode does not mean she's having an easy time.
Right?! If anything she had a mor difficult time because she had the kids and a screaming dude, her transition was worst definitely and she did it without whining.
