[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for some of the recommendations here. I lift 4-5 times a week and don't sport a beer belly.

Wife has been discontent and we've been in therapy for a while. I admit and have admitted to her that I have been lazy and selfish. I am however a very involved dad. The laziness was more towards our relationship. Over the course of therapy, I had changed my behavior and was working hard to be a partner and not a roommate.

Thanks for some of the guidance. As one poster said, get a lawyer and cry later. That's what I'm in the process of doing right now. [/quote]
Ah. I am/have been this wife in my own marriage. DH spent years investing little emotional connection outside of physical sex no matter how often I asked for more or tried different approaches. He focused 99% of his time and energy on his career under the guise of providing, when at least some of it was his own ego.

We are in therapy for the last year, and he has changed a lot — both of us have — but it still often feels too late and that the pain of being ignored but for sex is too great to bear.

Just for some perspective. [/quote]
