Marriage Minute for Men #22, by Kevin Lowry

Early in my career, I worked ridiculous hours. My schedule at the CPA firm was grueling, and our first three kids came along in two years and eight months. After our daughter was born, it became clear that the work-family balance thing wasn’t working. That’s when we hit a wall, and Kathi said, “It’s either the job or me.” I chose her, and changed jobs. Now, I’m crazy about my wife. But it didn’t feel like that to her. I wasn’t spending enough time at home to be the husband she needed. Now, changing jobs isn’t always the right answer. But it was the right decision for us at that time. Set aside one-on-one time for your wife on a regular basis, and make sure you pay attention to her needs. Listen without problem solving, give her emotional support, and provide genuine affection. She’s worth it.
