I'm recently out of my thrid heavy duty relationship, and I have been told all my life by the women I have been married to that I am dependable and I am a giver. (Including Sunday morning omellettes and back rubs throughout the week !) However, after years of feeling unappreciated, or seeming to not be as interesting or predictable, I have had to end each of the relationships on a bitter note. That is to say that I was all happy like Curly from the 3 Stooges every day for years with house chores and children and of course, (my prison), my job. But, after years in each relationship, having had children and trips to nice places and this sort of lifestyle, I would "pop my cork" and become the Incredible Hulk, and give out everything I hated about the relationship or the 'boyfriend' or the wasted money all in one big blow-up, after having endured those last few months or years in each relationship, hoping it would change for the better. Is this something that other men have gone through in this personality type ? Is this a personality type reaction, or is this just simply anyone and everyone ?

Not a great deal, always working, and when I am off, I am SLEEPING or laying in a King Size bed in a nice Hotel !
I'm very 'retro' and enjoy old movies, a few new ones, but mainly older ones, and sci fi, and 70's and 80's rock.
Biography
I grew up in Memphis, Tn, and then in Huntsville, AL, and joined the Air Force in 1983, to do that moving around military thing until 1990. I then moved to England for about 13 years with my second wife, who was from there. I had stayed in England working long shifts in factories and learnign great skills, as I am in the Electronics Field. I struggled through that time, as most couples do, to work any amount of overtime I could stomach in order to have nice things. I then moved back to the USA, around 2003, and by 2005, living on the coast, right before Katrina, having had to divorce and send my wife and two daughters back to England. I then, out of sheer loneliness, married a girl from Pensacola, Florida, nearby, and stayed with her for about 5 years until all my overseas money was spent this past summer in 2011. I have been working in Afghanistan for a couple of years or so now, and now I am BACK in Afghanistan AGAIN to recoupe my losses, and try to get into another house. This time, though, I will have one, for the first time in my whole life, in my OWN name, and no one can take it from me ! Wow !
I see my daughters who live in England, on a semi-regular basis, I still speak to my 'exes', who wished things had not gone so awfully wrong. EACH of them admit to it having been their fault, and speak to me with kind words every time. So, there you go ! I'm now isolated overseas, and actually feeling 'safer' here with my work crew, than back in the USA, or back in 'real' life. I am happy, I am employed, but I dread what I will do or how I will handle future relationships as I approach 50 in the next 3 years. I'm 47 this year, and although I look young for my age, I don't feel greatly wiser about all this as much as I am now paranoid ! haha
