Quote From: eosuserRemember ladies, relationships cut both ways as does change. Women are not immune to being sweet and beautiful before the wedding only to become a living nightmare after the wedding ring is on nice and snug. With that said, it's highly unlikely, in my opinion, that Greg will change regardless of what happens or what he says to Dr. Phil on the show after this experiment. In fact, it could have the opposite affect and create additional tension and resentment. Greg will have to make up his own mind to change. Nobody else can do that for him, but himself.
Amen to this! I'm in the opposite situation. I'm a husband who works at home and takes care of my 3 year old son whilst working. (My wife works outside the home.) When she gets home in the evening, I end up walking on eggshells. She's had a rough day...no one understands her...her boss yells at her...etc. I try to listen and then she starts in on me "Why can't you schedule your clients better? Why do I have to do everything around here? etc." Then, when our son wants to get some attention, she ends up yelling at him. If we're lucky, she'll settle down before bedtime. In the morning, it's like nothing happened and the cycle starts again.
I own a lot of this because I knew better than to marry her and I gave into her pressure. I knew that she was an angry person but I didn't know exactly how angry. I've been trying my absolute best to make a bad decision right...or, at least liveable.
I'm a fitness trainer and my clients come to the studio in our house. I work from 6 am until 8 pm at night. I deal with my early morning clients before the rest of the familiy gets up. Then, three days a week, I take my son to pre-school. (My wife takes him two days a week.) When my son gets out of pre-school around noon, I have scheduled my time so that I can be with him So, I pick him up five days a week, deal with housework, grocery shopping, fixing dinner, etc. Then I take on my evening clients after my wife gets home. Weekends, my wife is out selling her skin care products, taking skating lessons, etc.
Thank goodness for weekends....although I'd like some time for myself, just the fact that she is out of the house is like a vacation for me. (Besides, if I complained that she was out of the house so much, I'd never hear the end of it.)
