Im realizing so much since I’ve began working on myself. This is the hardest task that I’ve experienced, self growth. I’m seeing that my behavior has been the biggest factor of why my relationship has got where it is. I used to blame my wife for her behavior but she was just mirroring mine for the most part. I’m taking radical accountability for myself and why I’m where I am bc I’m not even the man I’d look up to. I became weak, needy, bitchy, not consistent, blame full, lazy. I was reactive instead of responsive and I didn’t listen, I pretty much was acting like a child in my relationship instead of a man. I wondered why my wife didn’t want sex…. I’m seeing why now. I used sex to regulate my emotions, I thought just bc I was the husband and all that I did that sex should just be given. Wrong!! I’m not sure why I’m writing this, maybe for accountability, maybe for finally realizing my bullshit. I’m trying to get past whatever the outcome will be with my wife. Im going to have faith that I can become the man that I’d would look up to and the man that others would want to be. Stay positive guys. We can do this!!
