Recently, I started making connections in my head. When my WH had his A he was seemingly on top of the world. He was doing the best that he ever did financially. Having a great time with his friends, going to the gym, etc. In fact, he thought he was quite powerful. There was a drastic change in him with his new job (one that I helped him secure.)
Ever wonder why celebrities once they "make it big" go outside the marriage. Do they start to think that there is something better out there? Since we have been reconciling, I notice the same thing, when he is unemployed and I am struggling to pay all the bills by myself, he acts very loving etc. When he is working, doing well financially, he's an [censored] all over again. {He works in an industry that is all or nothing....}
What is your take?

I have been through the same thing. My WH and I had 8 kids to raise. We got through that, and I did most of the work.
Okay, kids out of the house. WH wanted to buy a new Harley. That was his life-long dream. I put in the loan papers, saved for the down-payment, and helped him get it.
As soon as he got the new bike, he was gone with OW. He tells our friends and neighbors that I was not into the "biker lifestyle". Now OW is riding into the sunset with WH.
