I know why hunting = divorce.

I will tell you this and it may sound trivial, but I believe the small things can make even the biggest of difference. When a person works 7pm-7am, even two times a week, their internal clock changes. Her staying up until 3am is more than likely a by-product of her current work schedule and not a slight to your desire to go hunting. I work until 2am-3am every morning and many times on my off days I am up until 1-2am, even when I want to go to sleep early. I've just learned to go on 4-5 hrs of sleep if needed for my family.

Does she take care of the kids on her off days from work, while you work?

 

So what is she doing during this time?

I bought her an ice cream cone and she followed me home. (That's a true story.)

You know, if your wife doesn't firmly believe she is the most important part of your life, you are going to have problems.

Affection goes a long, long ways. Start a fire in the morning and it'll be nice and warm when you get home.

 

I have been married for 14 years and with three wonderful kids. My wife is more important than hunting. Period. Yes my wife does support me in my hobbies but when it is too much, I stay home. A loved wife is better than a dead buck!

If you "feel" you are not getting in return what you are giving then tell her. Expectations are often never met the way we want them to be.
Get a small box and put it under the seat of your truck, then leave your emotions in that box. Never let her see you sweat brother, if you get wrinkled about something, fix it with a "proper" response.
If you can handle yourself well, you will have what you need.

 

Very Well Stated!

 

She bought it for our anniversary that year. She is cooking a shoulder roast right now for Christmas dinner and she is the best gift I could ever imagine God giving me.

As far as winning fights... I do that with my hat... I grab it and run.

 

Choose hunting over your wife and one day you'll be hunting for her.

Sounds like a tough deal just keep your family first, pray on it, and try to open up the lines of communication(not just about this topic). Good luck.
