Love Bytes with Cybelle Navigating Life’s Highs and Lows, A Husband’s Journey Through Family and Career Challenges!

Our reader writes: Dear Cybelle,

I’m in a bit of a tough spot and not sure how to handle it. I’m a married man with three wonderful kids. My wife, who works as an air hostess, is always traveling and hardly ever home. While I am incredibly proud of her career, managing everything alone is really wearing me down. The kids miss her, and honestly, so do I. But I’m scared to bring it up with her. I don’t want to add to her stress or make her feel guilty while she’s working so hard.

Is there any way to balance our family life with her demanding job, Cybelle? How do I keep things together without making her feel like she’s failing us?

This constant struggle is like a never-ending flight delay. I’m trying to be strong for the kids and hold everything together, but it’s getting harder every day. I used to feel capable and confident, but now, I just feel overwhelmed. Yet, I know deep down there’s a way through this. I just need to find it. Can our family find a way to thrive despite the challenges, Cybelle? Is there a path forward that doesn’t involve making my wife choose between her career and us?

Yours Truly,

Jone.

Cybelle Responds:

Alright Jone, listen up. It’s completely understandable to feel overwhelmed with everything you have on your plate. You’re doing a fantastic job, and that’s a real accomplishment. Do you need someone to talk to? Confide in a trusted friend or family member – sometimes just letting it all out can make a big difference. Music can be therapeutic too – blast some awesome Fijian tunes! Don’t bottled up your feelings, Jone; let them flow.

When you’re feeling cantered, consider having an open and honest conversation with your wife. Express your love and how much you miss her and explain how you’re managing things at home. It’s not about making her feel bad, but about finding a solution that works for both of you. Maybe she has some ideas as well! Remember, you’re a team in this. Fiji boasts a strong sense of community, right? Don’t hesitate to lean on your support system – friends, family, your entire community can help lighten the load. Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness, Jone. You don’t have to go it alone.

Your dedication to your family is truly inspiring, Jone. Remember to prioritize your well-being too! Find joy in those small moments with your children. Reconnect with the traditions and practices that bring you peace and strength. You are not alone in this, Jone. Keep pushing forward, and you’ll find your way.

Take care, 

Cybelle
