    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    It is worth mentioning she seems to be coming around. She’s been in high spirits since her deliverance in church and cutting things off on the 1st. She’s been forthcoming telling me where she’s at and when she’s coming home, she’s been considerate of me in her speech and actions. She cooked...

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    1. I’m not contacting him 2. He didn’t drive 100 miles I’m not sure where that came from. He lives in the same vacinity as my wife’s family. He met her a few miles at a Walmart she was at. 3. I appreciate the advice, but contacting him will not do anything. It’s taking things into my own hands...

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    I totally agree. We are back to sleeping in the same bed now, but overall affection is not there anymore, from I love you to holding hands touching and kissing and of course, sex. None of that is happening and it’s kind of killing me but I’m fearing we get used to this. I don’t know why we...

    Yeah it is. It’ll get better once our counseling really kicks up. Thank you for prayers. They make a big difference !

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    I will. Because she is not talking to me in any amount of depth whatsoever. And I haven’t heard I love you in forever. We are roommates.

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    My wife has been at times spending more time with family and longer hours at work. I know she’s really at those places so that’s not the issue. We are talking more, and she’s leaning into trust building and the counseling, so I do believe she’s trying and she said “I’m going as fast as I can...

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    I hope as well. Something I love about my wife is she is genuine, when she is emotionally here, she’s here and she strives to be genuine and true to how she’s feeling and in her pursuit of figuring things out. I continue to pray with and for her and I believe God will see us through and rebuild...

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    All in all I continue to pray over her. With her. And I think things are moving in the right direction. Ever slow

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    Hey! So, much has happened. The jist is we spent a weekend just us in Vegas and had an overall great time. I met some people on here that messaged me 1:1 and talked with me on the phone and prayed over me and gave great Godly advice. This got rough last Friday when my wife asked for a...

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    I’m so glad you said this and pointed this out. I hadn’t looked at it this way but it is 100% true. I’ll wait until after this vacation, but we will need to discuss this because I don’t think she feels responsible for where we are. We have spent more time talking about her needs that weren’t...

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    We are great parents. We are really good with our girl, it was one of the things we told each other we love about one another. It’s something I’m proud of and I’m glad our baby girl hasn’t become a pawn for retaliation or resentment.

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    This is so true. And they only talked for a couple weeks. They used to be close friends years ago.

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    You’re right about not needing to talk every second. That my own overthought. She didn’t say she didn’t miss me, I asked her if shes tired of sleeping in bed alone and she said no. She did say she wasn’t sexually attracted to me a week or so prior to now. I won’t change myself but I will act...

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    I hear you. That makes sense. I just don't know how to reattach the bond. I again have no idea how to gauge and steer our relationship to closer not further apart. We are having a great time so far in vegas, but eventually life will go back to normal. We still have spaces of silence where we...

    Wife and I are starting over, help?

    I also think sometimes that her coldness or distance is an emotional wall and safeguard that she's put up. Not necessarily that she's given up, but that she doesn't want to let her guard down and then send the message that this is t important to her. If that is the case then my unconditional...
