I Am Lonely

My World

Written on July 3rd, 2009
I'm married and have a awesome daughter (3 today). My wife & I have been married for 11 years. We both have good jobs and are doing well with money. I think my wife takes my daughter for granted. She is a good mom, but acts like she gave something up to be a mother. As for me, we partied, traveled and had a lot of fun. I think it was time for something more... So we had a kid, she is the coolest kid... And is not the problem... After my wife was pregnant, I think she changed, but chemically and mentality. Now our together life is not much more than talking when we have to and who will do what. I have never felt this lonely in my life... I served in the USMC and let me tell you there were some lonely times there, but this is different... I need her and she does not need me. What to do next... I've been trying to get other things going in my life. Working out, happy hours, yard work, but truly I just want her to care. Does anyone remember that movie the Wedding Singer... When that dude was sitting at the bar and said that all he wants is for some one to tell him every thing is going to be alright. That is what I need......

    Yes, looks like your wife gave up a lot for your child. The reason behind all this is that you had a child too late. Your life was so carefree before the child, she loved it. Me and my wife have been together for 14 years and a son after 2 years being together. We've become best friends on the top of being married. We never had carefree life, we've always had some money issues. See if this helps.

    Aww. I think that's the problem with a lot of women when we get pregnant, and then the baby comes. We spend too much time with the baby and forget our first love. It's nice that you actually work out, go out, and do yard work. My husband told me the same thing, but you have to talk to your wife. The best time to do this is before you sleep, in bed. Tell her your feelings. The trigger is when you *cry*, it always works for me when my husband does it (which is rare). I hope this helps!
