Wife moved out today .........

I suspect we had two different opinions about where we should go .

Her opinion was I WORK , and she spend .

Going back to the Gym , and refill my Zoloft .

I may as well ,go ahead and do a few rounds of roids ,A friend is benching 350# at 60 years old .

I'm sorry to hear that karate. The gym sounds like a good idea, the roids not so much.

Karate...hugs to you.

The whole work/spend/life situation is rough these days.

Definitely go get something out at the gym.

Stay away from roids.

Being married is over rated. This could be a blessing in disguise.

Woman want to CONTROL the man. After 2 weeks- you will wonder why you did not get your freedom sooner.

Woman also want to CHANGE a man.

This is your chance for a new and improved life.

Sorry to hear the news. Don't drink, it will make things worse - but you know that. Maybe a trip to the gym will be a nice way to get some energy out.

I'm sorry the women you have dated or been married to have left such a bitter taste in your mouth.

I for one count my blessings each and every day that I am lucky enough to spend the rest of my life with my wife. No controlling on her part. The only part of me she wanted to "change" was me being a raging alcoholic.

I am sorry to hear of this karate. How are you holding up? Steroids? Those can be a bit dangerous and can kind of throw your moods all over the place...plus they are illegal. Be careful.

Weaver,

What % of marriages last? 50%?

Statistically over 50% of marriages will end in divorce. For some people change is good. And certainly no relationship is better then an abusive relationship.

Karate indicates that he earns the money and his wife spends it.

If the marriage is worth saving- then the couple should go for counseling.

Sometimes change is good. You do not have to be in a relationship to be happy.

Womans lib has ruined things. A man gets in trouble no matter what he does. Hold the car door open for her- trouble- dont hold it open for her trouble.

He works- she spends. Now she left. Now he can spend his own money.

I am really sorry Karate. Perhaps some time and distance will allow the two of you some clarity to figure out that you either want to reconcile or this is really the right move. Either way, you have come so far and should be proud. Although, this may not seem like a prize at the moment.

I have been through the ringer myself in my own marriage these past ten months. What I would say, is try not to make any final decisions if you can. Temporary separation comes to mind and maybe some counseling might help?

I have always found pull-ups more challenging than how much you can bench. Good luck buddy!
