Today, I realised what kind of man I married when I finally shelved his book, "Getting Things Done", still untouched 3 months after buying it. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after 8 years and a house bought together, I realised I regret getting married. FML
Today, I found my husband's journal, and along with it the real reason he took so long to show up to our wedding rehearsals last year. According to the journal, it was because he was too busy wooing a married mother of five and sticking his "slut-banger all up in that fat booty." FML
Today, I found out my husband of 10 years has a online blog. Excited to read about myself, I began skimming, only to find out that every entry is him explaining how he let his "soulmate" walk away 9 years ago because of his "previous commitment" and how he regrets it every day. FML
Today, I shouted at my husband for buying a video game, saying that money wasted on his dumb childish bullshit could be spent on a nice vacation or date night. He quietly packed a bag and left. I'm getting the locks changed. Good riddance. FML
Today, I realised I may need to work on my marriage when I saw my husband in public, laughing and smiling with his coworkers, then when he saw me his smile disappeared and he stood up like a tired old man to come and speak to me. FML
Today, I found out that my husband read my journal behind my back when he got mad over something I'd written in it. This is the same journal that my therapist told me to keep, to help me get past my trust issues. FML
Today, I now accept how stupid I was to marry a man whose plans for the future all start with, "When I win the lottery…" FML
Today, at last, my husband instigated sex for the first time since the honeymoon a few months ago when he started fondling me in bed. Then I realised he was asleep. FML
Today, my husband moved out while I was out of town. The only thing of his he left behind was a copy of Paradise Lost. FML
Today, I learned how unhappy my husband is in our marriage. Apparently he also can't find a good woman. We didn't have a heart-to-heart, I read his woes in a blog. FML

You appeared to have married a man

Bill gates once said he will only hire lazy people, so maybe he'll end up making a lot of money?

I can relate to this on a level I'm not very proud of.

Were you married at first sight? Did your parents arrange the marriage? Or did you just rush things? If you spent any time with him, and got to know him you'd know what kind of man he is.

No we didn't rush into things or something like that. My husband is a typical case of procrastination, thats why he bought the book..

Who reads books now a days? People are always on their phones

We all procrastinate a bit , leave the book somewhere visible to remind him . :) and positive reinforcement works too ;)

I suppose it's time for you to GTD in your marriage ...

My husband starts things but gets half way through, then starts another. And so on. So there are usually several half done things. That's especially odd when cleaning. Floors are swept, into piles in the middle of each room which are left and he's moved on to some other task. Then wonders why the piles get strewed around and has to sweep again. It's pretty funny actually.

Cute right :-) Of course I knew what kind of man I married, but since he was excited about buying the book, I was led to believe there might be some change in the air. The fact that the ook remained untouched kinda ruined that believe. But ah, we love them for who they are, even though the irony of this is completely lost on him.

He's procrastinating reading it.

I mean, that doesn't really mean anything. He could have just forgotten about it.

When a man says he'll do something, he'll do it. No need to remind him every six months.

I'm sure he'll get to it eventually.
