I love my wife more than i ever thought possible, but she hes come to the decision that we need to spend time apart. I have been a stay at home dad mostly for the past 3-4 years working only 10-15 hrs.needless to say i don't have much.She needs time away from me but somehow expects me to remain here.She has been on a date once because she met some guy and she has grown feelings for him. she says the reason for us to be apart is that we don't work well together. I cant stand to see this end but i cannot look past the lies and the betrayal. i want to give her the time she needs, but should i stay here and sleep on the couch ? or should i find a place to stay? we have 3 kids and always wanted to be there instead of childcare which makes more sense than spending that money on childcare when it would just mean less time w/ the kids. i cannot leave the kids and would never but how can i give her time she needs while still living in the same house?
If we must get separated i must find a full time job if not more , but she refuses to let me get one that conflicts with her schedule , because it would only result in childcare. I want the best for the ones i love, but cannot deny my felling of i shouldn't be in the same house.We hardly saw each other anyways but there will be those times when we are here together.I have no idea what to do.I do have any number of places to stay for a while but if separation is what has to be done i feel i deserve the time to do what i need to secure a home and income to support the kids and myself.Should i move out and come back to watch the kids everyday? or ignore the everyday pain i feel of having my beloved in the next room? How do i give this time needed and still be the father i want to be?
