OP, do they own the property in the Caribbeans? If so, they may be trying to maximize their value and nothing personal towards family.

I agree with other posters, maybe plan a destination vacation as a family.
To the women out there who like the doors to be opened by their man, position yourself to the left side of your man.

If you're on the right, it makes the act difficult and awkward, you will be in the way.

Or, contact your local utility company. The code can be confusing on some cases.

DW is simple, most of the time... She has a short fuse when she is tired, hungry, or horny. I do my part to ensure she is taken care of on all cases.

Happy wife, happy life
"Damn, What did you eat, a shit sandwich?!"

Or, you could try...

"Here sweetheart, chew this gum, that garlic is not settling well"

I was dating a Nuclear Engineer (yummy, so I thought) he wasn't that nice, only if he was having his way, not that affectionate, not that great in bed even though he had plenty of equipment. I moved to another state with him after we both finished school. He made more than me but made me share 1/2 for all expenses. Did some stupid things like starting a savings account with him(got my money back later) before even being engaged. Ultimately when I got sick and he showed up at the hospital talking about how stressed out he was and couldn't stay long cause he had to work out, I realized, while intubated, that it was time for me to go. He won a trip to England just before I was about to leave. Decided I deserved that trip and put off my leaving for that trip of which I enjoyed to no end. Eventually told him I was leaving and going back to our original state. This is after being with him for 6 yrs. Asked him the night before where did he think this relationship was going and did he ever have any thoughts of marrying me. He didn't. I left and never looked back. He on the other hand continued to pop up unannounced and uninvited for years afterward. What was I thinking...


Hard to find an engineer with a good personality... Few and far between
Read this morning... Not my words, but thought I would share:

ARE YOU WITH THE RIGHT PARTNER?

During a seminar, a woman asked," How do I know if I am with the right person?"

The author then noticed that there was a large man sitting next to her so he said, "It depends. Is that your partner?" In all seriousness, she answered "How do you know?" Let me answer this question because the chances are good that it's weighing on your mind
replied the author.

Here's the answer.

Every relationship has a cycle… In the beginning; you
fall in love with your partner. You anticipate their calls,
want their touch, and like their idiosyncrasies. Falling in love wasn't hard. In fact, it was a completely natural and spontaneous experience. You didn't have to DO anything. That's why it's called "falling" in love.

People in love sometimes say, "I was swept of my feet."Picture the expression. It implies that you were just standing there; doing nothing, and then something happened TO YOU.

Falling in love is a passive and spontaneous experience. But after a few months or years of being together, the euphoria of love fades. It's a natural cycle of EVERY relationship.

Slowly but surely, phone calls become a bother (if they come at all), touch is not always welcome (when it happens), and your spouse's idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute, drive you nuts. The symptoms of this stage vary with every relationship; you will notice a dramatic difference between the initial stage when you were in love and a much duller or even angry subsequent stage.

At this point, you and/or your partner might start asking, "Am I with the right person?" And as you reflect on the euphoria of the love you once had, you
may begin to desire that experience with someone
else. This is when relationships breakdown.

The key to succeeding in a relationship is not finding the right person; it's learning to love the person you found.

People blame their partners for their unhappiness and look outside for fulfillment. Extramarital fulfillment comes in all shapes and sizes.

Infidelity is the most common. But sometimes people turn to work, a hobby, friendship, excessive TV, or abusive substances. But the answer to this dilemma does NOT lie outside your relationship. It lies within it.

I'm not saying that you couldn't fall in love with someone else. You could. And TEMPORARILY you'd feel better. But you'd be in the same situation a few years later.

Because (listen carefully to this):

The key to succeeding in a Relationship is not finding the right person; it's learning to love the Person you found.

SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. You have to work on it day in and day out. It takes time, effort, and energy. And most importantly, it demands WISDOM. You have to know
WHAT TO DO to make it work. Make no mistake about it!

Love is NOT a mystery. There are specific things you can do (with or without your partner), Just as there are physical laws Of the universe (such as gravity), there are also laws for relationships. If you know how to apply these laws, the results are predictable.

Love is therefore a "decision". Not just a feeling.

Remember this always: God determines who walks into your life. It is up to you to decide who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let GO!
I have some very close friends who chose to side with the ExW after the separation/divorce. However, after some time, they saw through her BS and victimization stories.

After some time, they called me to arrange a dinner meeting to see how I had been doing and to catch up. Once We had had a few drinks and passed the pleasantries, they both apologized profusely for choosing her side and then began telling me stories of things she said or did after the separation. It was very entertaining to see them come to the realization of what I already knew and understood.

To this day, we remain very close. The wife of the friend couple will still occasionally tell some new story of the ExW which she hears from mutual friends. Each new story I hear makes me appreciate her being my ExW...

Problem is... Even after the divorce, you're still related...

Ten minutes before every meeting -- "You know you have a meeting with John Jones? It's in ten minutes."

After the meeting "How'd the meeting with John Jones go? Was the conference room okay?"


What's wrong with this?! This is way better than the type of admin who gets irritated when you ask them to do anything. I'll trade you!


Right? It's difficult to find a good OA... Mine is very helpful and I appreciate them very much. It's amazing how much load they can take off of you.

Did you read anything that the PP posted?

It is not that simple, ever.


It is that simple.

Whatever deity he believes in, he would fear. If nothing else, he would fear me.


And once you had proved your masculinity, you would be arrested, he would likely NOT be arrested, and he would take out his anger (which would be justified, even though he's a shitty person) on the woman you were "protecting." Who might end up dead.

Great job. Wonderful parenting.

OP, listen to the PP with the sensible constructive advice. Do not listen to Rambo here.


According to OP, there is physical abuse...

Maybe because I am from the south, but it is the fathers resposibilty to ensure his family is safe. Either directly or approving someone who can provide that safe zone.

If that someone cannot provide the safe zone, then it is the families job to protect. Whatever recourse or method you feel is adequate.

I for one will not stand idly by knowing my DD is in a physically abusive atmosphere.

Tread on me, I dare you.
