Why do relationships break?

It has been now more than 12 years that I know my wife, we married 2,5 years ago. Now since Thursday night 10th Dec. it seems to be over...

Can you imagine that a person you seemed to knew very well turns out beeing someone you have never known... I thought that this could have never happened to me but it did.

As I am reacting more rational and not emotional I tried to understand the reasons and asked her for a fair discussion - which we had but during that discussion I made an error and tried to discuss and pick up the arguments, qualify and give proper answers to them or at least to understand who did something wrong with this - this was absolutely wrong.

You never get through to someone with such an approach as that person has taken an emotional decision based on butterflies she currently has (regardless why) but she is already on a train not knowing if there will be service on board, if the compartments are comfortable, if there are any stops inbetween, if the final destination will be the destination she wanted to go to - I am trying to reach that train but it seems that I am loosing speed now as there seems almost no chance to reach it now.

I also gave the critisism some further thinking and came to the conclusion that most of the raised so called "facts" were just excuses to hide herself from the real reasons - and here I have serious doubts if she is not hiding herself from some other serious problems.

I decided not to run after her, will wait but not for ever.

TÜRKBÜKÜ

This year we have decided to have also during vacation a couple of days without family at the turkish Saint-Tropez which is called Türkbükü (yes - a lot of "Ü's" in this word...).
This is a coast on the northern side of the Bodrum peninsula and is "the place to be" if you want to see and to be seen.
Almost all international stars and starlets have been there.

I will update you later on where to go there. We stay at the Divan Palmira Beach and will definitely visit some of the hot spots like Maki Beach, Nana Beach, Maca Kizi Beach, Bianca Beach,...

Summer Vacation 2009 - Turkey Gazipasa

This year we will go "again" for our summer vacation to Turkey. As always we will go and visit my parents in Gazipasa which is a small town with 20.000 inhabitants at the south-east corner on the mediterranean coast in the Antalya region. Small but with high potential as we have now a small airport which has a landing strip of 1.850m (will be extended to 2.400m until end of 2009).

Also the construction work for a big harbour is on the way (see picture on the right). My personal intention is to do there something tourism related as soon as the first international charter flights operate to Gazipasa and when the first big yachts come and stay in our harbour.

I am thinking of a small, nice, fancy hotspot for a limited number of visitors - serving excellent food, wine and perfect service.

Will keep you updated when we do our pre-opening...
