I've read all of your comments and others. It really comes down to a couple of things that are certain facts. First ... like another poster said, the cars you have are not that high on most people list for classic and can ALWAYS be replaced. Second you appear not to have Christ in your life what so ever. All the lawyers and good thoughts, professional help, communications is not going to save your marriage. One thing we don't know is where her heart is...second you see her as sex and a roommate not a wife. You appear to have successfully traded a marriage for what appears to be not so desirable cars. Pretty simple.
And as far as
At least do your neighbors a favor and rent space for your hobby. That can be an accomplishment.
Thats a bit harsh, yikes...
To the OP, I am happy to see you are working it out, good for you guys, maybe still want to get a third party in there to add some outside perspective. An old timer once told me, "make your life laugh twice a day, and you will be married for ever", I don't try to make m wife laugh, but everytime I say something and she laughs out loud, I think of what that old man told me. I have had the conversation with other people that were having a tough time getting along, and it seems to be true, when you let your relationship get full of bad things "regret, sarcasm, disdain, malice, greed, disrespect, pettiness, animosity, etc etc etc" you leave less room for the good things and in some cases, it doesn't take long to cut them out completely...
I can not help but smile when I see my wife or hear her voice, we make certain things a priority, family being number 1, no one person deserves any more than another, unless it is for another, in other words, I don't deserve more than my wife unless its for her because I want her to have more... Its confusing lol...
You need to learn how to live with your wife, getting rid of some cars is probably a good idea anyway, IMO, I mean do what you want, but having so many seems to be counter productive for most guys, you end up never getting any 1 done...
Another thing that may have been over looked is that you guys are both out of work? and together in the house all the time? that can be awesome, BUT if not done right can be really bad, lol. Since I cut back at work and my wife did the same, we are around each other A LOT. But we have a good structure to our days, I wake up at 430, go work out, get done around 5-6 depending on what day it is, when she is gets up some time in between there, she makes me tea, and her coffee, gets my breakfast ready, when I am done in the gym, she goes and jumps on the treadmill, I go get the kids up, make their breakfast (Its sitting on the table right now, but I dont wake them up until 6am), she comes up about 6:30 after I have breakfast cleaned up, the kids are gone by 7a, we shower in between there somewhere, and then at 7a we sit, finish out tea and coffee, watch a bit of the today show, and talk about what we are doing that day, so we know how mcuh time we can spennd with each other, sometimes we will go to the range, sometimes we go do some shopping, get dinner together to be cooled later, go visit firends and family, go to my work, what ever. BUT we make sure we are both considerate, we both want the other to be happy, anything else is toxic...
again, good luck, I hope it works out for your marriage..
