Admitting to yourself that your relationship is over can be incredibly hard. The longer you are with someone, the more a part of you they become. Noticing signs of distance between the two of you and realizing that the love has long since been gone can both be startling discoveries. There could have been signs that you missed when the demise started. These are a few of the clues you may have missed and what you could possibly do to fix the issues if you believe your partnership is worth saving.

What happens when the Breadwinner becomes the Househusband ?
High-flier KEITH KENDRICK reluctantly swapped roles with his wife. A year on, the results have astonished them both.
A mother eyed me curiously at my sons’ school fair, where I was manning the kitchen, baking baguettes and heating up soup.
‘You’re a real Beta Male, aren’t you?’ she said. For a moment, I thought I’d misheard her. ‘You mean a Better Male?’ I asked. ‘No,’ she replied. ‘A Beta Male, as in, not an Alpha. An Alpha Male would never be caught dead in the kitchen. Mine certainly wouldn’t. He’s a classic Alpha Male.’
I didn’t know how to take this. Was she insulting me, or paying me a compliment? There was no question, however, that she had a point: I’m not an Alpha Male. But I used to be.
No to Housewife ! Yes to Househusband !
As lyricist Prasoon Joshi (2009) says, “The bottom line is that if the relationship is important enough to both partners, the couple will make an effort to work the marriage, No matter who is the breadwinner in the marriage.”
In the traditional time the father is the head of the famiy and also the provider and the role model for the children. But now a days the husband and wife change role the mother being the provider and the father work in the house. Househusbands are the male counterpart of housewives, househusbands often do the house chores such as cooking, cleaning the house, taking care of the children while the wife is the one who works and earn the money for the family. Here in the Philippines is not quite acceptable for the man to talk to his friends that he is the one who is in the house and taking care of his children and his partner is going to work to earn money for the family. But as the times goes by it was acceptable because of the indemand working of Filipina women working abroad the partner decided that the wife will work and the husband will stay in the house because of the big income that they will get. Recent data show that 37 percent of the women workers are married while 7 percent are either widowed or divorced/separated. A non-government organization called KAKAMMPI (Kapisanan ng mga Kamaganak ng Migrenteng Manggagawang Pilipino,Inc) estimates that about 5.85 million or 23 percent of all children and adolescents (17 years old and below) have at least a parent overseas.

So many reasons Why I fell in love with you
Whenever Mamark and I fight he always end up asking me the same question all over again...
"Bakit mo ba ko mahal?"
(I'll never go lang ni Erik Santos ang peg)
You always ask me
Those words i say
And telling me what it means to me
Every single day
You always act this way
For how many times i told you
I love you for this is all i know
Come to me and hold me
And you will see
The love i give
For you still hold the key
Every single day
You always act this way
For how many times i told you
I love you for this is all i know
I'll never go far away from you
Even the sky will tell you
That i need you so
For this is all i know
I'll never go far away from you
(I'll never go lang ni Erik Santos ang peg)

I'll never go far away from you
Even the sky will tell you

For this is all i know
I'll never go far away from you
Minsan kahit sobrang daming dahilan magugulat ka nalang at maitatanong sa sarili mo .. bakit nga ba ?
Ewan ko rin eh .. di naman xa gwapo (parang ang ganda ko eh no?)
