Looking to the future! We are looking at getting my wife out of her current job right now and trying to come up with a game plan. I have always been a play it as you go type of person and that’s not a great way to play it and that does not make Sam feel safe. Anyone made that move?

Presence Challenge
After yesterdays call I have had some time to think about how I want accountability this week. 1. Listen to 10x is Easier Than 2x before Monday (trying to listen to the whole book) 2. Make a list of 5-7 Tasks Daily to Complete before spending the remainder of my day with family. 3. Do not go on my phone when spending time with my wife and son (unless we are doing something that involves a phone, but if I am on the phone it should not be work related).
Confession
I've not told my partner about the GMM, until tonight. They confronted me about an alarm they saw an alarm that I had labelled "Appearing to be Good" an activity I was doing from NMMNG. I tried to explain what the course was and why I was doing it. My partner just saw it as another way of trying to change myself, another endeavour to be perfect. They said why can't I see that trying to change is changing the person they love. We ended it on we aren't going to agree that I do this course, but I can do what I want. They said I'm looking at it like a problem to fix and I need to just let stuff go. It's like I have everything I want to tell them about why I'm doing it, what I feel it wrong with me, why I want to change and then they make points that I agree with and I just lose all direction of where I want to take the conversation I'm lost lads, I've got everything I want right in front of me and I feel like I'm pushing it away and I don't know how to stop it.

@Daniel Edge thank you for your honesty and vulnerability. My wife was the same with me too and I think she had every reason to challenge me because there were so many times I said I "was changing" and there would be no change, but once she really started to notice my change was when I was not so reactive, or when I stopped making myself the victim and started to see her and hold her feelings without manipulation or trying to put blame on her. You got this man.

Went to my son’s school (where the girl would be, the one that I cheated on my wife with) and it was smooth sailing! My wife was fine and I notice thoughts flowing like a river with no problem ! I felt grounded even with the racing thoughts. Spoke to my wife after and we were both really pleased with how we felt about the situation! Grateful for This group!
