[quote=Anonymous]You stay because you promised to. That's what marriage is. He's working, and it's not ideal, but it's not like he's a gambling addict or drug addict or running away. You guys have incompatible work schedules and a lot of stress and depression and kids and a lot of s*it going on. I think the most important and crucial thing you can do right now is find ways to rebuild your friendship. You need to be friends, strong friends, before you can do the really big work that needs to be done on your marriage. John Gottman's book, "Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work" was really helpful for this, I thought. Good luck to you. It sounds like you have a good guy who has had a giant blow to his ego. He's not a great housekeeper, but I hope you can see the other good things about him and reconnect.[/quote]
