You say you want a wife and a family. But the moment you are required to step up and be the leader for your new family you make excuses.
You are obligated to do x y and z for your parents.
You're obligated to help your siblings.
You're obligated to keep up with the boys.
You're too tired to actively participate in raising your children.
At what point does your new family become the priority?
When do their needs become more important than anything?
No one's telling you to stop having a life or being a part of your relatives, just know that your new responsibility is the family you created.
