Still Time to be Happy Together

Quote From: gallen

I haven't ever tried to convey this image that I own my wife, and that she is supposed to bow to my desires. Our lives are quite the contrary actually. We have disagreements over everything - and thankfully most of our disagreements are fairly good natured. I wanted to bring some issues to Dr. Phil that I wasn't making progress with. In a round about way, I think I have come across some answers.

Sometimes we do convey a different message than we think we do.  I think you and your wife love each other and I hope you learn to let go of the fantasy image of what marriage and child rearing should be like.  Its not your fault, most young couples quickly find that marriage isn't the fairytale they thought it would be and that life in general is tougher than they expected.  Marriage can still be wonderful though when husband and wife each love and accept one another for who they really are.  Keep in mind that the early years of marriage can be stressful for both spouses, because of tight budgets and demands of child care.  When your children are a little older and all in school, your wife may have a more time and energy to learn more about cooking, or maybe not.  The important thing is she married you because she loves you.  Try not to be a perfectionist, and hope that she doesn't hold you to an impossible standard either.  Love and acceptance equals happy marriage.  I am pulling for the two of you and your children.

Oh no!  Grant is posting defending his position!   

  

You didnt hear anything which was said to you?  You dont care that your wife is unhappy?  You just want to be right?  Thats the most important thing?  Along with an organized house?  Oh dear oh dear oh dear. 

  

There are TONS of things you arent making progress with Grant and im telling you the very least of them is how your wife keeps things organized.   

  

What a shame that you log on and post these messages instead of owning up to how very wrong you are to continue in your critical manner and to justify your outrages behaviour with your wife.  I think one day youre gonna wake up and find your wife has had enough of you and has kissed your judgemental opinionated selfish critical foolish childish butt goodbye.  From the looks of her on the show, she def. strikes me as the type of women that sooner or later will walk if only for her childrens best interest.    

  

Kelly, you KNOW how he makes you feel!   I GUARANTEE you, he will end up making your children feel the EXACT SAME WAY if he refuses to change.  Youre their only mother and you MUST protect them!  If things are just as they were before this show(and by Grants postings im guessing they are) you owe it to your babies to show them how their mother deserves to be treated.  You know its wrong.  Do NOT put up with it!  Do you want your children growing up either doing the same thing or being the same victims to this type behavior??  PLEASE think about them! 

  

Grant, once again, you should be ashamed of yourself!  Apparently you are as thick headed as you are foolish.  tsk tsk tsk
