Can my marriage be saved?

I’ve recently been blindsided by my husband’s sudden indifference to our marriage. Things have been so great, perfect almost. We’ve been together for 12 years. Now, he’d rather go out and party than stay home with me or even go out with me. It has led to huge fights in which I’ve asked him does he care or what? And he has answered I really don’t care anymore. I am beside myself. Is there any way to save my marriage when He is so indifferent and will not go to counseling? Please hellp. Thanks.
@Bianca: I do not ever wear sweats. I am presentable at all times. His friends seem to really like me and I am not embarrassing to take out. He has never done these things in the past and now that he has, it’s like he can’t get enough of going out and partying. He just left tonight. I said don’t you care what we have and he said: If I did would I be going out?" But just this morning we cuddled and he told me how much he loved me and appreciated me and that he would be nothing without me. I Don’t Understand. I’m torn apart.

  1. helpfulJoe says:

    Self respect is so important. You don’t deserve to be jerked around. Period. Pick up the pieces and move along. He is determining the course of things here, and it is up to you to accept his distance he wants between you. Stay in the marriage, by all means, but send him signals that you respect yourself. When he goes out to party (not in your control) do something you really enjoy. Let him come home to an empty house. Don’t get mad at him. Develop interests outside of him, as that is the reality you are facing. Loosen your grip on him, and stand on your feet. You will love yourself for it. I will pray.

  2. DaNewGuy says:

    start going out on your own. Reverse psychology

  3. Mimi says:

    Sit down with him really talk. Don’t blame him for anything as that will make him mad and make matters worse. Start by telling him if he remembers something (like maybe an object..that related to something romantic and unique you guys had done a long time ago). Then tell him "We’ve always had something special, can’t we just forget everything that’s been bothering us recently and start again? I love you a lot and I can’t bear this distance from you. Is something wrong? Can I help in anyway? You are too important to me and lately I know something is bothering you, and I hurt over it because I dunno what to do. Please help me, help us…" or something like that. If the subject of him hanging out with his buddies come up show that you’re understanding of it..tell him you understand his need to hang out with his friends sometimes to relax a bit after tiring work days, and you got nothing against it. It’s just that you miss him and miss spending time with him.
    Suggest going out one day..and do something youve both wanted to and never got a chance to!
    You have got to try! But use a different and more understanding technique! Remember communication is the key, no matter what it is communicate it. Every negative should be served with 2 positives.
    All the best!

  4. FL says:

    IT CAN be saved but will take both of you. IF he truly does not care anymore…would you really want to say under those conditions? Are you religious…speak to your pastor or priest, go to a family counselor by yourself. Pray for a Godly solution.

    Can you go with him when he goes out? Do you have children? Do you work? How are you in the bill department? Is he spending money the household cannot afford?

    Sit him down and just be blunt…do you want a divorce? IF yes, file for it. Don’t waste time if he is not willing to work on a solution. The link below may offer some helpful insight.

    God bless you with personal strength to get through this trying time

  5. ♥Instantkarma♥♫ says:

    Obviously things weren’t as perfect as you thought–and you are old enough to know that there is no such thing as ‘perfect’ in this world. You may have been blindsided but something tells me something happened at some point to make your husband decide that he was going to move on emotionally–maybe he even tried to tell you but you weren’t ready to hear anything negative and didn’t pay attention. If no kids are involved I’d leave him for a while and let him figure out what it is he wants in life.

  6. Bianca says:

    Put yourself in his shoes. If you werent spending time with him, and he started yelling at you, would you want to spend time with him? There’s another issue here. Is he looking to pick up other girls? Do his friends like you? Are you making yourself presentable and non-embarressing when you go out? You’ve tried changing him, and it did not work. If your still interested, try changing how you react to him. Don’t get mad, act loving and sweet. Look pretty (put make up on, and dont wear sweats around the house when he comes home). Make an effort to tell him you care about him, and do things he likes, and make him food he likes. If he doesnt care and you do, you in a way have to "date" him again. Flirt, send him love notes, and compliment him. In turn, if your marriage can be saved he’ll act in kind. It might take some time though. Men for the most part aren’t into interpersonal stuff. They are easily placated with food and sex and a little ego boost. I dont mean this as a put down to men, but men generally dont fret about things their friends say like women do.

  7. Alice says:

    It sounds like there must be more to the story. People don’t randomly stop caring after a perfect relationship for no reason. Did he drift away suddenly or was it gradual? There must be some sort of problem. Or he could be just bored…have you heard of the seven year itch? This could be the 12 year itch or a middle life crisis. He may just be feeling like his life is going no where..maybe he has a dead end or boring job?
    I suggest doing something to spice your relationship and life up…maybe go on a trip?
    I doubt after 12 years of marriage he really doesn’t care. He is obviously acting out because he is having some sort of issue. If you can find out that issue you will better be able to fix it. If you can’t I suggest a trip or maybe stop getting in fights and give him some space. Men need their space or their "man-cave". He might just need some time to sort through this issue he is going through. It may have nothing to do with you it might be his job etc.

  8. jazzy_pez02 says:

    Ask him in a calm way if he wants a divorce. And if he says yes ask him why. The main thing is u cant save a marriage if the other doesnc’t want it

  9. April says:

    Well talk to him about divorce, see where it goes from there. like his reaction. If he doesnt react, then hes not worth it. Neither is you puttin in the effort for the marriage and if he reacts like upset tell him what you want him to do or how you want to try to fix things. Good luck hun :/

  10. yoyo23223 says:

    My opinion is…:
    Talk to him.. one on one.. and remember to talk and not argue… Be calm and tell him your opinion and also listen to him and try to find the conclusion. Talk. That’s all I can say…

Can my marriage be saved?

a few months ago I took my husband back he left me for another woman he left for quite some time, throughout this time I kept seeing him knowing that he was with someone else he seemed confused and I wanted him back now that he’s back at home it’s not what I expected we hardly ever talk, and when we do it seems like he’s always looking for a reason to pick a fight he seems distant, and doesn’t want to go to counseling; he says he’ll leave again but he doesn’t leave I know he’s not seeing her anymore what can I do?

    He is taking you for granted and not respecting or appreciating you. If his attitude doesn’t change you will have a hard time living with him. We attended a seminar that really helps in these areas. It’s a nationally touring seminar given by Family Life called "A weekend to Remember". Google it. It really helped us.
    Life is too short to not live with love. If he won’t try, find someone who loves you.

    Nah nothin there, move on.

    my husband left me, and i don’t think i could ever take him back. things could never be the same. i’m still atrracted to him, but thats it. i give you credit for trying though. i personallly think you should move on, and find someone else.

No long drawn out fight, no threats, just tell him that it is not working and since he is unwilling to work thru it in counceling, you need to move on and get a separation. Get a legal separation. The next part is tough, but you need to make sure you don’t continue to see him or call him. If he calls or says hi, you can say hi back, but don’t say much else. Stay distant, but make sure you have a friend to support you and help you when all you want to do is hear his voice. He’s playing games with your heart and it needs to be stopped if your marriage has a chance.

  6. Dai D says:

    Pray for your marriage just like Queen and them said. Take it to God.

  7. chicago says:

    Leave him before he hurts you even more.

  8. jenniferk5683 says:

    Once a cheater always a cheater and you need to realize this. He is going to cheat on you again and he is just waiting for the oportunity to hurt you again. You need to get over this guy and get on with your life. Men that treat their spouse like this need to be casterated and we as women need to be stronger and not take them back no matter what. I have been in a similar situation and I finally decided enough was enough and packed my kids and left. It was the best thing I ever did and we are happier for it. You can do it get out before you get hurt agaiin

  9. Suzie Q says:

    it sounds like he doesnt want to save the marriage maybe he came back because she left him and he needed someone to take take care of him tell him if hes not willing to work on the marriage to get out and let you move on

  10. crittersbaby1112 says:

    I don’t know why he came back, but he’s making it obvious that he didn’t want to, without coming out and just saying it like a grown up. If I were you, If he is showing no interest in trying to save your marriage than you need to try (and I know from past experience that this is harder than it sounds) to cut your losses, go your separate ways, and move on with your lives. I’m sorry for what’s going on but hanging on to something that’s not there anymore just isn’t good for either one of you.

  11. pitoune81 says:

    Sweety, I am sooooo sorry but it is over! He is probably scared to leave! Keep in mind you will always be suspicious of him ( seeing other women ) and also ask your self why did he feel the need to go to someone else? What was he not getting from you? If you can’t figure it out then ask him but when you do be open minded! Did he willing come back or did you have to convince him?
    Ask yourself this as well, Am I really happy? Does he fulfill me? Does he make me feel whole? Can we communicate? All important things to think about! but honestly this is pretty much over. Life goes on! Please tell me what happens! Good luck!

  12. chickenlittle25 says:

    If he doesn’t want to make things work or try counseling there isn’t much you can do. Sounds like he’s just biding his time until he finds himself another honey.

    Sorry

    I think it’s probably not worth anymore to put up with all of it…

    read the answer I left on this persons question…. and you will understand when I say leave him!! you are worth more than this and no one and I mean no one deserves this…he is most likely cheated again because my husband acted the exact same way after coming back and he was continuing to cheat and refused to put any effort into our reconciliation! no counseling never talking and only became more secretive and more hateful….It makes me sad to see other go through this because I know how much it hurt, If the other person isnt willing to make it work you are basically over…I mean a marriage is a 100% partnership and BOTH partners need to put 100% into it not just one of us because your basically how I was in a one person marriage, its you and you alone..hes pretty much checked out..im sorry to hear that you are in this situation tho, I wish you the best of luck!!

  15. Paul says:

    You are too available and very easy to forgive. This gives him the opportunity to manipulate you, have affairs and still play the system and believe things can be fixed. An affair is very hard to fix, and he isn’t trying. You have to believe you are worthy of better than this; tell him straight up that you need a strong man that can stay faithful. If he can’t be that man, fine, at least you know.

  16. The Legend says:

    Key Word: COMMUNICATION. You both have to set down and talk things over. Please, convince him to seek counseling because its a good chance that your marriage could be saved. Tell your her husband how you feel and be open to him. He should do the same. If you two dont communicate and lay your problems on the table and try to find the solution things will not get any better. Good luck with your marriage.

    -The Legend

    You have to do what makes you happy. He obviously does not want to make it work then he would try counciling. Follow your heart & your gut.

Can my marriage be saved?

My husband and I have been married for 5 years. We have 3 kids between us, mine his and ours. The past couple years have been really bad between me and my step daughter and my step daughter and our daughter. At first I was just jealous of his relationship with him and his daughter but now its something different. The affection he shows his daughter is the kind of relationship I want with him. She intentionally hugs and kisses him in front of me and looks at me to see if im paying attention. To me it seems like he just wants it to be him and her, like her as his little wife. There is total jealousy between his daughter and our daughter. She is very mean to her and refers to her as her half sister like shes not truly her sister. We have talked so many times about this and he just says its to late. I have set up counseling to see if our marriage can be saved but I just don’t think he wants it to. I have caused some of the problems between me and my step because she is very hateful to me and my daughter and I don’t appreciate it. We have her full time and I think she needs to be with her mom, but thats out of the question. Please someone give me some advice.

  1. luv2help says:

    Well, there is no way to look into the future and say yes, your marriage can be saved. What you can do is focus on what YOU can do to help save your marriage. You can’t change your husband, your stepdaughter or your biological daughter. All you can do is do your best in the situation and hope what your family will follow your lead. I found an article entitled, "The Special Problems of Stepfamilies". Here is a quote:

    "When a first marriage breaks down, the cause is often the immaturity of the mates. In a second marriage, dealing with the children can strain the relationship. Some records show that more than 4 out of 10 blended families end in divorce within the first five years.

    The newlyweds may not realize the emotional turmoil, the conflicts of loyalty, and the feelings of jealousy and resentment that the stepparent’s arrival sparks in the stepchildren. These may imagine that the stepparent has replaced them in the affections of their natural parent. Moreover, a natural parent abandoned by a mate may find it hard to understand the children’s ongoing attachment to the former mate. One boy tried to explain his good relationship with his biological father, saying, "Mom, I know Dad treated you badly, but he has been good to me!" Such an expression, while honest, could make a mother feel bitter resentment toward the child’s father.

    One stepfather confessed: "I was not really prepared to deal with all the problems related to bringing up my stepchildren. I went into the situation thinking that now that I had married their mother, I was their father. It was as simple as that! I did not understand the children’s attachment to their biological father, and I made many mistakes."

    Tensions can arise especially in the matter of discipline. Children need loving discipline, but they often rebel against it even when it comes from a natural parent. How much harder to accept it from a stepparent! Commonly, when faced with such discipline, a stepchild will say something like, "You are not really my father!" How devastating such words can be to a well-meaning stepparent!

    Can children be successfully reared in a blended family? Can stepparents play a positive role in building a successful stepfamily? The answer to both questions is yes if all involved follow the counsel in God’s inspired Word, the Bible.

    The Bible sets down only a few actual laws to govern human relations. Mostly it encourages the cultivating of good qualities and attitudes that guide us to act wisely. Such good attitudes and qualities are the basis of happy family life.

    It may seem self-evident, but it is nevertheless worth saying that the basic quality needed for any family to be successful is love. The apostle Paul said: "Let your love be without hypocrisy. . . . In brotherly love have tender affection for one another." (Romans 12:9, 10) The word "love" is much misused, but the quality Paul referred to here is special. It is godly love, and it "never fails." (1 Corinthians 13:8) The Bible describes it as unselfish and ready to serve. It works actively for the good of others. It is patient and kind, never jealous, boastful, or conceited. It does not seek its own advantage. It is always ready to make allowances, to trust, to hope, to endure whatever comes.—1 Corinthians 13:4-7.

    Genuine love helps to smooth over differences and unite people with very different upbringings and personalities. And it helps to counteract the devastating effects of a divorce or a biological parent’s death. One man who became a stepfather describes his very real problems: "I was often too concerned about my own feelings to analyze the emotions of my stepchildren or even of my wife. I had to learn to be less sensitive. Most important, I had to learn to be humble." Love helped him to make the needed changes."

    I hope this information has helped you at least decide which direction you can go in to influence change in your family’s dynamic. If you would like more information, please log onto http://www.watchtower.org and request a Bible, if you don’t have one, and a copy of the bible study aid, "The Secret to Family Happiness". I think it would help you immensely. You can also type in "stepfamilies" in the Search box located in the top right corner of the homepage. This will pull up these articles and more relating to your situation.

    I hope this helps.

    I think he has decided what is important to him and that is his daughters. plural because he seems like a good father and he wont back out on the ‘ours’ daughter. best of luck in counseling, i hope it works out.

  3. Mona says:

    His daughter is insecure and does not want to share her dad with you and at the same time your husband is hanging on to the past and cannot let go. He is not treating you right. You should confront him and ask him point blank "Do you love me and do you want to save our marriage" . All four of you should sit down and have a frank discussion and put your cards down. Its not easy having a relationship with someone who was in a previous marriage. Talk it over and if this does not work seek professional councelling.

  4. Java Jutee says:

    Sounds like your husband enjoys the attention from you and his daughter. The competition thing decide not to play. By not getting up set when his daughter does things, have a family discussion, to settle any unresolved issues. The marriage can be saved but not by yourself talk to your husband, consider marital counseling for yourself, read books on the subject .

  5. mgerben says:

    I think the answer is: No.

    Read your question, and see where blame is assigned: To The Other family.
    Your Family bears no blame.

    His daughter has to refer to her stepsister as her ‘sister’ because you say so – even though she is not her sister. She simply isn’t, and wordgames are not going to improve that.

    Read the last bit: I have caused some of the problems (yes, ‘some’) BECAUSE she is HATEFUL to me. Ah, so you have caused just some of the problems but it was definitely not your fault that you caused them.

    This does not sound like a solution at all.

  6. Serene E says:

    Give you advice about what???? You had kids you brought into the marriage, and so did he. That rarely works out from all I hear on here!!!! Now you’ve made another one! Seems you’ve screwed up all 3 kids’ lives!!

  7. Mary says:

    tell hubby to stop being so affectionate to his daughter or you will find your own affection elsewhere.

    You are caught in a game you’ll probably lose in the end….kids are the biggest reason for failures of remarriages,

Can my marriage be saved?

My wife and I are currently on the verge of divorce. We’ve been married almost ten years, and during that time she’s cheated on me at least six times (that she’s admitted to). We have two beautiful children (and I’ve had DNA tests done, so yes I AM their father). When I first found out she was cheating on me, we’d been married about 2 years. I found out because a friend knew and couldn’t handle keeping it from me anymore. My wife admitted to it, and during that process revealed there were several other guys as well.

The last time I caught her cheating on me was about 4 years ago, and since then there hasn’t been anything suspicious. We went to marriage counseling and it seemed to be working. However, about a month ago, I found out she sent over a dozen naked pictures of herself to another guy via text message. And these weren’t just subtle teasing pics, but full on close ups of you can imagine what. I haven’t even seen all of the pics she sent, so I have no idea how explicit many of them were. The ones I did see were enough to rip my heart from my chest. Even worse, she sent this guy several of these pics on my birthday.

At this point, she’s ended things with him and swears it was nothing more than texting and sharing photos. When I try to tell her how bad this is for me, she gets defensive and tries to dismiss things by saying what she did was no big deal because it was only texting. I completely disagree. Whether or not she actually had a physical relationship is not the only concern for me. Sending these kinds of pictures is a form of cheating in my opinion, and I know that if they had the chance to get together she would have had a physical affair with him.

Years ago, after the first several incidents of cheating, I fought hard to show her why she should stay with me and why our relationship is worth saving. She eventually agreed and we worked things out – or so I thought. But this most recent incident is a huge shock to me because I thought things were going pretty well.

She has blamed me for what she did, not only this most recent time but for those in the past too. She said that she was mad at me and that’s what led her to other men. I’ll admit I’m not perfect, but I’ve never cheated on her and never done anything like what she has.

Now she wants to discuss staying together and fixing things. She says she’d like to start over and see if we can make it work this time. Is there any hope for our marriage? Should I even give her the chance?

  1. Elated says:

    I believe in marriage and that it should not be entered into lightly or ended without careful consideration. I have no advice as to how you could possibly get over this, especially considering your marital past. To me, this would be the final deal-breaker.

    One thing is for absolute certain! Her poor behavior and bad decisions is NOT your fault. For her to blame you is reprehensible and irresponsible. If she can’t own her own stuff here, how can you fix this?

  2. Brianna says:

    The real truth is that only you should answer this question. No one should decide your marriage for you.

    You have the right to try to work things out, if you’d like to try again. You have the right to leave, if you’d like to do that.

    Sounds as if she is a sex addict that has a hard time controlling her urges. That she blames you makes her sound quite narcissistic to top it off. She won’t even admit things are her fault.

    You can continue to start over again and again, but you have to face the real truth. She’s always going to cheat on you and apparently not even try hard to hide the fact. If you decide to stay this time and work it out again, it might be time to get her into sex addiction counseling and get her into some real and heavy duty psycho-therapy. See if they can help her out. They might find out she’s a sociopath, so be aware that that could be the problem in all of this. Someone who is destructive and has no care in hurting others and continues the behavior over and over again. Would be a low grade sociopath. But I am not diagnosing her, just suggesting it could be a possibility. I am saying she is narcissistic since she continues this behavior and then has the gall to blame you.

    If you decide to put her through all the therapy you can get for her, still you need to realize that you are probably going to be living with a cheater for life. Some people actually accept it in their marriage but demand that the cheater be discrete about it so they can pretend it’s not happening. You’ll need to accept things you never thought yourself willing to accept. It’s the only thing I know that could possibly work for you. Best of luck.

  3. Minton quest says:

    I do not know whether or not it can be saved. If you want to try, then go for counselling, figure out why she is blaming you. Personally I don’t think she can be trusted, she keeps doing it. Also think, what happens if she brings something home STI? And think about what it does to your children, they pick up on the tension in your relationship.

  4. Crouching Snark, Hidden Athiest says:

    First of all, this isn’t your fault. Don’t let her say otherwise.

    Secondly, this feels like this is a very deep-seated problem in her. Some people are addicted to sex and/or cheating, and that may be an issue with her. Suggest therapy–honest to God therapy–and if she refuses to take it (and this isn’t just a couple sessions, this would probably be weekly for years), then you should leave her.

    Thirdly, if she refuses therapy for sex addiction or whatever compulsion that keeps leading her here, then you need to be committed to leaving. You may love her, but she has no right to pull you around like she has. It’s toxic, and it’s best to toss it aside now.

  5. Meow Kitty says:

    Maybe if you started acting like a real man, instead of a f*cking coward, she’d be faithful. she’s doing the right thing. dumping your pathetic a*s will be the best descision she’ll ever make. so go to hell.

  6. ? says:

    I am very sorry for what has happened to you , but the fact she has said it was your fault that she cheated , means she has not taken responsibilty , and is never likely to , and will cheat on you again !!
    Run like the wind !! HALF A CHANCE AND NO CHANCE IS WHAT YOU SHOULD BE THINKING! Good luck

  7. Franco III says:

    Boy ! You married a winner, get rid of that no good, cheating, loose woman you call a wife ! She is more promiscuous than a Vegas hooker…!

Can my marriage be saved?

I am 27 years old and so is my husband. We have been living together for 8 years and married for 1 year as of sunday. We have always been arguers and I always thought it was me. Recently the fighting has been escalating and we have had some revalations…
1. My husband finally told me he had been sexually abused as a child
2. WE realized that He was an abuser(mentally) to me. Through all our reading he follows ALL the patterns and I NEVER knew it and thought it was ME.
3. For the past 8 years I see things that I never saw before. I have always had a constant job(not great) to support us, while he has tried 3 different schools quit jobs, not worked for months, and recently went back to college only to fail half of his courses. As well as consistanly being 10-30 min late for work on a daily basis because he can’t get out of bed;.
I am a wreck! I feel like my life is in ruins, I HATE myself and I blame him.
He sees his abuse and says he loves me so much and it kills him that he has done this and is trying to get help for him/us, but even if he is to get help for his abusive ways, I’m not sure he will ever be able to provide for a family and do what is necessary for us to be able to live comfortably. He said durring an arguement that he did’t ruin my life and I can’t blame him.
I love him so much and I don’t want to divorce him, he has been my life for more than 1/4 of my life, but I don’t know if we can be saved and if he will ever make the changes nescesary…
I am so lost and don’t know what to do…

  1. Wisen Smart says:

    "I am a wreck, I feel like my life is in ruins, I hate myself and I blame him". Does this sound like someone you are making your life? Sounds more like insecurity and motherly nature to me. If he was abused and is an abuser then you have become the perfect co dependent and you are as much to blame as he is for putting up with it.

    You need to seek professional help for yourself, you need it more than him. Once the therapist is able to take the blind fold off your eyes and your self esteem is raised, I am sure you will not see this individual as "your life". Good luck

  2. EBG says:

    Sounds like you guys need counseling if you want to save your marriage. Love isn’t the only thing that holds a marriage together and when one person is holding all the weight and the other doesn’t seem to care – you’re going to eventually snap. You both have to figure out what you want and see if you guys have the same goals in mind and how you’re going to get there. Good luck and think about what’s best for you all around since there aren’t any kids involved…. I hope.

  3. Chrissy D says:

    Im in the middle of debating a sepration? This is terribly sad, as much as he cant control want happened to him as a child, he can seek help. He seems cannot be happy with himself so he wants evryone else to feel the same… if he is not willing t help himself he will be no good to you either.

  4. nikki says:

    I think you should try counseling first and if you can’t afford it try your local churches they may be able to help you. But don’t give up on him he has opened up to you, don’t make him regret it. My sister is going through something similar as you. And if the counseling dosen’t work then I think you need to move on. Sure you have been with him more than 1/4 of your lilfe but do you think you can deal with this your entire life.

Can my marriage be saved ?

I have been married for 5 years , my wife and i have had many problems . She was very possesive and jealous in the beginning . About a year a go we started going to a casino and lost around 30 thousand dollars . I got over gambling 6 month a go but she continued going until a month a go . Our sex life was almost non existent during this crazy gambling period. About 2 weeks a go i discovered she was cheating on me with another man . She has changed her apperance (new clothing , underware, perfum,) something she had forgotten due to the gambling addiction which took too much of her time . I am trying to work things out and nothing seems to work . She does not want to have sex with me, acts very cold , distant , critical . I am very sad and want her back since i still love her . Please help!

    she recents you..probably for the addictions and you recovering

  2. blackbutton100 says:

    let,her,go,shes,no,good,

  3. rich2481 says:

    sounds like she lives two lives, but it mostly sounds like you should divorce her

  4. Mike M says:

    I know you probably don’t want to hear this, but me and my wife had a similar problem, as far as infidelity goes.We were christians who attended church most every time the doors were open. Then I got in a fight with her dad, who was the pastor. I quit going and so did she.Gradually I went back to my party lifestyle and she followed.We eventually fell into a swinger life style.I know this shocks a lot of folks.This led to nothing but problems. My wife ultimately hooked up with another man and left.About a year latter I bought her a wedding ring, which she’d never had before and she came back, but it didn’t last. Before I knew it she left again.I thought our lives were over and I didn’t know what to do.I went to a convention that featured a prominent religous person I’ll not mention and when I came home I got a call from a guy that had a christian band whom I had done some audio work for in the past.I was telling about where I had been,not mentioning my maritial situation.He said he’d been there also but the place was so packed we didn’t see one another.He recommended that I start listening to Kenneth Copeland. I told him I never much liked the guy, but come to think of it, had never honetly listened to him long enough to really have an opinion. So I told him, on his word, I would listen to him for two weeks, no matter what he had to say. I figured by that time,I’d have enough of him and turn him off for good.I learned more about where I’d been missing it all those years while in church than from anybody else.I learned about what faith, really is, and how to stay in fath when everything else says to you, give up.I sure don’t have time or space here to go into all the details of the true principles of faith. But after almost three years, my wife came home. Broken, ashamed, and afraid.But I’d knew in advance she was coming. I greeted her with open arms.We cried, held each other and said a lot of I’m sorries.God has restored our marriage and our love for one another. It’s as if none of this had ever happened. Honestly, I didn’t want to write this, but I felt I had too.This isn’t a ploy, or some game, and I believe you know this. If your serious about getting her back and don’t care how long it takes, Turn to the one who really knows how to. "Fix Things".

  5. duckky44 says:

    i feel bad for you you should get out now its not going to work out she wants someone with a lot of money to feed her gambling and if you don’t have the money she is finding someone who has better go now she won’t you hope this sorry pal

  6. blondie says:

    After what I have read I would say that to make your marriage work you will have to try really hard.
    You could try a relationships counsiller and see if anything can be sorted out there.
    Also, buy her flowers, compliment her new look, you could also plan a romantic night out just the two of you, a night to remember.
    Also if you have kids, think of them, you dont want to put them through anything critical, so get determined for their sakes.

  7. docask says:

    man i hate o tell u this but it sounds like shes gone get counseling or tell her u want to split for a litle while let her feel what its like to lose something women and men always want what they cant have

  8. columbo says:

    any addiction is a bad thing no matter what it is. the fact that she has an addiction means she is lacking something in her life that she is trying to replace, first with gambling now with another man. people make the mistake of thinking the grass is greener on the other side, its not its just different. jealousy you mentioned was an earlier issue, Jealousy is a sign of her own insecurities so she needs to address that along with her other addiction. There is I am afraid not a lot you can do until she accepts she needs help. I take my hat of to you for standing by her but she needs to make a choice, if her choice is to deny there is a problem then until she does there is nothing you can do, you have to move on and take solace in the fact that you tried. If she accepts the help then love her and support her all you can. good luck

  9. william s says:

    its going to take some time and patience.remember that everything happens for a reason.so if it hurts you more than it humbles you,you don’t need it.

  10. Valley R says:

    Well, I respect for you for wanting to save your marriage. But it is UNACCEPTABLE for her to have an affair.

    Once a cheater = always a cheater.

    I think you should divorce her.

    The ONLY way I would stay with someone who cheated on me would be if she would commit to going to christian counselor .. if she wont do that – tell her to pack her bags and GET OUT.

  11. Cathy C says:

    I’m sorry to have to inform you of this, but it sounds like your wife isn’t in love with you anymore. Once a woman or a man crossed the line and invites another person into the "bed", that is pretty much the end of it. My advice to you is to talk to a therapist. He will help you with your self-esteem and remind you that you can find love again and be very happy. You said yourself there were many problems in your marriage. Sounds like it’s time to end it and move on. Once the love goes, the relationship is pretty much over.

  12. steph says:

    seems like a very tough situation.. i’m not sure really what you should do but it sounds like your wife is in a different place then you..

    perhaps you need to talk with her about the problems and see what she wants to do to figure them out

  13. Mets00 says:

    wow i feel for you… but honestly she is not the one for you and you can do better. Imagine how bad it may be in another 5 years. sorry about the gambling loss too

  14. themeindzeye says:

    You obviously deserve a more faithful spouse. You can’t force someone to love you. Sounds like you’ll have to cut your losses and break free. Sorry, man. :(

  15. Catmmo says:

    Sounds like pure hell. Are you sure you can’t find someone else and dump this ho?

Can my marriage be saved?

I don’t even know where to begin. I’ll try to keep this short. We have no passion or romance. The sex sucks and is getting less frequent. I don’t really even have a desire to have sex nor does he most of the time. He seems more like a roommate than a husband. whenever he is home he is glued to online poker. Seriously… that’s all he does. Its just boring now. He doesn’t seem to be willing to try to change things. I’ve told him we need to try counseling and he has to get the papers through work to have it covered yet almost 2 months later he still has not gotten them. and he wonders why I have to nag him? I do love him but I’m not sure if I’m in love.. and how can I be if he has slipped into the friend role and is no touching or passion or anything. The only contact we make is a fast kiss before bed. That’s it!!! I’m not happy and I know that if things don’t change I can’t stay. Its been like this for 2 years but the thought of ending it because he isn’t willing to change things is in mind more and more these days. I feel like I’m being taken advantage of. I do most of the cleaning, all the shopping, I work as well. I also am working out 6 days a week for and hour and a half so. I feel like I do so much for this man and get nothing in return. I try to look good for him. He on the other hand has totally let himself go. Doesn’t shave or cut his hair. wears the same grubby clothes all the time and doesn’t try to get himself back in shape like I have. I think that if he just tried a little I would be more attracted to him. I’m such a happy person at work. but the minute I come home and see him sitting on his ass in front of the computer yet again I’m instantly in a bad mood. I’m not happy when around him anymore. I’ve become very resentful. I have told him all this and still nothing changes. I know it takes two but I feel like I do try and when I see no results or feel like I’m the only one trying I give up. If it wasn’t for our son I would not be here right now. but because we do have a child together I’m not quiting until I have given 100% into saving this. But how can I if he doesn’t do the same? Please help and don’t suggest things like unplugged night or go out for a date. We know how to do all that. I’m just so scared that this can’t be fixed. I want the man i fell in love with back. The man he is now is not him.

  1. Marsela says:

    the marriage already ended. did you ask him whats wrong? why doesn’t he talk to you? why does he play poker all the time>? maybe he is depressed.? or he is having a midlife crisis. Ask him, if he wants to make things better or move on. JUST TALK. When he comes home next time. Unplug the computer and tell him. WE need to talk now, this is very serious. And bring out all things that bother you.

  2. mynus says:

    Simple answer, yes. Your marriage CAN be saved. The details vary depending on your/his issues (which you don’t know yet–all you are seeing is the symptoms) and the success milestones–much like the change promised by the White House, won’t be immediate but prayer and persistence can win out.

    The 1st thing I would advise is PRAYER! Tell God exactly what has happened as far as you understand it and EXACTLY how you feel about it. This, of course isn’t telling Him anything He didn’t already know, it’s for YOUR benefit (there may be things you didn’t think of even posed in your question here). Then ask for His divine presence and help throughout this situation.

    Next, the counseling part. Desperate times require serious measures. The fact that he is not motivated to complete paperwork to attend counseling sessions under coverage should not deter you from going to counseling. GO ANYWAY! Schedule them. Whether or not they’re covered, they’re needed! It may be that once he sees that you’re serious he’ll at least try to get them covered as opposed to going AND having to pay for it as opposed to just going.

    You both need counseling on your own, not just marital counseling. Encourage him to go to his own individual counseling, there may be factors at play here that extend outside of the marriage and are solely his alone. You may have the same issues. You both need help navigating through those choppy waters.

    Realize there IS a light at the end of the tunnel as long as you have continuous prayer (ask your friends and family to pray for you too). Pray together also. That helps establish a bond.

    Your situation did not occur overnight, neither will it be solved overnight. TRY to be patient with the progress, but in the meantime you hit on a very important point–don’t be stationary! Start taking action! You’re starting to work on your physical appearance, KEEP IT UP! I would also add:

    1) Take a class (learn to do something you’ve always wanted to do try etc)
    2) Join a club of some kind (book club, language club, softball/kickball club) to interact with other adults your age. Ask your husband to join you. If he doesn’t, go anyway. It may be lonely at first but getting engaged with others will help address your loneliness. Don’t let his depression (that might be the issue) pull you too far down. You need to stay up for him and yourself.

    It CAN work, you just need to follow your PLAN (you MUST have a plan) and pray OFTEN!!!

    God bless. . . . .

  3. Boozer-R.I.P. Probert says:

    Wow, I’m sorry to hear this. My wife left me for kind of the same reasons. She said she was out of love with me and that it was more like living with a room mate. The only difference is I realized she wanted a divorce, and I took a look at myself and realized I had some issues that needed dealing with. I even booked a marriage counselor appointment, where my wife said she’d go with "an open mind, but I don’t want you to get your hopes up, because there’s a slim chance my feelings will ever come back" Then, at counseling, when her turn to talk comes, she said the only reason she agreed to marriage counseling was so I can get it through my head that it’s over, she doesn’t want to be married anymore, and she doesn’t even want to try to fix it…rough. We had been married for over 5 years, and together as a couple since I was 19, I’m 28 almost 29 now. This happened less than 2 months ago. While I blamed myself a lot, I am going to ask you to do what I wish my wife would’ve done.

    The thing is, most people don’t appreciate and realize what they had until it’s gone. It sounds like your husband has gotten complacent with your marriage, which happens all the time. My wife has tried to tell me before that I wasn’t showing her affection, all this other stuff, and for some reason it never got through to me what she was really getting at. I would suggest that you sit down with your husband, no tv or computer crap going on, and tell him exactly how you’re feeling. Look him in the eyes. Tell him you love him, but the marriage is heading for the worst. Tell him everything that you need, and tell him you need it soon, and how important it is to you and to the marriage. Admit your own mistakes as well, and get input from him on things maybe you can do to make him happier, try to come to a compromise. Let him know right up front that you can’t take much more, and you don’t want to leave him, but if things don’t change, you feel you have no choice. Make sure to tell him all this in a loving way, not a nagging way, because that just pushes a guy farther, and makes him more bitter. Talk again about getting the papers in for counseling at work, make sure he definitely understands the importance of these papers getting submitted ASAP. Leave him a note again reminding him in the morning, but also scribble a little love note with it. Let him know that you love him deeply, and that the only reason you’re saying these things is because you want this marriage to work, and that you believe it can and will get better. As for letting himself go, that’s something maybe you can bring up at counseling, but what I would do, is after you work on your marriage for a bit, maybe suggest that you guys can do more stuff together. Have him teach you online poker, and sit in with him or play a few hands between you two. In return, have him exercise with you. The best part about exercising together is showering together afterwards! Plus, no matter how out of shape you are in, when you get done with a workout you feel awesome.

    I hope I helped, and I wish the best for both of you, hopefully the demise of my marriage and the mistakes I made will help you guys strengthen your partnership.

  4. Eva says:

    and i bet that the marriage didn’t start this way did it? i don’t know how we allow things to get to the point that you are in. i hear your story many times.
    i think that we get so busy in our lives that we just stop paying attention to the relationship and then when we do finally pay attention….we start to see it for what it is and want change. the ship is sinking but it hasn’t sank completely. i say you have the right idea to not quit and give 100% to fix it, if possible. if you can’t then you should start to look at other options. you deserve to have a loving and full filling marriage. good luck.

  5. olddad54 says:

    Although I am not big on divorce I also know that sometimes it cannot be avoided. When children are involved it becomes even harder. I do not know how old your son is, but that may have a barring on how you proceed as well. If he is a good dad then you may not want to leave. If he is not a very good dad and even a worse husband you may need to cut your losses and leave. There ate so many things to take into consideration. What ever decision you make you should think it through very carefully. SWEET MILDRED IS OUR LEADER.. CRAWL INTO HER PLAYPEN

  6. mrs.hansen says:

    when did this start? does work finances family issues have any thing to do with it? unplug everything he’s atached to and make him talk to you. considering whats best for ur child is important but don’t think they don’t since something is wrong. you have to find out whats wrong so you can fix it or give him a awake up call and take the child and leave. if he sees your serious maybe he’ll open his eyes before your gone for good

  7. Priya M says:

    I think something is wrong with ur husband….

    U can find a solution only aftr finding the problem so u try to ask him whts the problem if he is not discussing with u then try to find it with some one whom he talks well / openly…..

    Dear without knowing whts in his mind we cant take a decision….

    he lost interest in everything bcoz of that computer na do something try to turn it off for some days like try to make it goo off atleast for a week and no tv too… So that he can pay attension on u and ur son.

    In that time u try to find out the reason.

    He should speak up.

    He is some how angry with u persnally but he dont want to tell it u frankly so find out the reason y.

    I know its easy to advice u but too hard to get whats in his mind..

    Good luck dear…

    Everything is in ur hand u can make it…

    Be confident will surely win his heart…

  8. big Mac says:

    Tell him the feelings you shared in this post (if you already haven’t).

    If he seems indifferent (I think it’s depression),

    Set your foot down by threatening a separation if he doesn’t follow through with the paper work. Be prepared to follow through with your threat if he doesn’t care. Even in depression he can still feel enough to fight for his love, he just needs a larger then usual motivation.

    He can only fix himself, the best you can do is tell him the consequences of his actions. Nothing else.

  9. Norma G says:

    You are in a rut. You have threatened that if nothing changes your marriage will end. It has been 2 years and you are still there. He probably thinks your just bluffing.
    By what you say, you are able to support yourself and your son. Give him an ultimatum. He goes to counseling with you or you leave. Anyway I think you should start counseling, with or without him, for your sons sake.
    He may also have a depression due to his gaming addiction. He may also benefit from some kind of therapy for that.
    Try to help your husband, but think of yourself and your son first. If hubby isn’t willing to help himself, he doesn’t deserve you or that little boy.
    Good luck and don’t lose faith, your life will get better when YOU decide to make it better.

  10. Nick says:

    First answer I agree with

  11. hyperactiveblonde1344 says:

    One thing I would like to suggest is trying ‘The Love Dare’. Its a journal/book that has fixed thousands of marriages. Its a 40 day experiment where everyday you get a dare. It is christian based and while I’m not sure abouty your religion, I can definitely say from using this book from experience, if you are not religious you can just overlook the bible versus. For the most part though, the book has really good ideas and has saved many marriages.

    http://www.amazon.com/dp/0805448853/?tag=googhydr-20&hvadid=5502210985&ref=pd_sl_11h2d7rswz_e

    I would look into this and see if this can be the miracle you need. Good luck!

  12. Sam Conceiall says:

    Marriage counselling.

    If you’re not happy and in love you both need a different partner,

Can my marriage be saved?

I am a 38 y/o woman who has been married for almost 21 years, married at 17 because I was pregnant. We now have 3 beautiful boys, 21, 14, 11. For the past 5-6 years I think I have fallen out of love with my husband. He is good to me and the boys, I love him but I don’t think I am "in" love with him. I felt like I was taken for granted. Never heard an "I love you" for years and just didn’t feel appreciated. Haven’t heard a compliment for years. Sex just feels like it’s a chore anymore and I just don’t feel the "sparks" that we used to. I just feel like I am here to keep the family together. Recently a guy that I have known since junior high school came back into my life. He too is having the same problems at home and well we hit it off. I find myself telling him things that my best friend doesn’t even know about me. I feel comfortable with him. He is who I think of as soon as I get up in the mornings, all through the day and before I go to bed. We haven’t been intimate at all but has crossed our minds. It isn’t fair to my husband that I have these feelings for someone else. I should be feeling this way about my husband and feel guilty that I don’t. I recently told him everything. He is upset and realizes he was wrong and wants to change. I have these feelings that I don’t think it will work. Let’s say my marriage from the start was a 10 and in the past 20 years it has reduced to a 1, is it going to take 20 more years to get it to a 10 again? Will these feelings for the other man go away? I just need to know if my marriage can be saved and if anybody out there has or had the same experience me. My kids mean the world to me but I can’t stay in a unhappy marriage just for them. They are also torn up over this and it breaks my heart. Any advice would be great!

  1. Worried says:

    I’m going through something similar right now and have decided to set up regular dates with my wife every Thursday – movies, dinner, hike, roller blading etc something just for us to try and get something re-ignited. Grass is always greener because a separate party (ie the other guy) can say whatever he wants and not have to back it up. A roll in the backseat or a lusty affair sure is tempting but when that wears off what then? Rents/mortgages, child support, hurt feelings, awkward social engagements are only a sampling of the problems that will surface.

    The hardest part in all of this is knowing you had something to do with this, at least it is for me. You marry young, have 3 kids (me too) and everyone takes their chores, you do them without fail and try not to rock the boat right? Then one day you wake up and look at your spouse like a roommate and wonder when that happened. It’s complacency and I know I’m guilty of it, the thing is what are you going to do about it? Tuck tail and run or stick out a 21 year investment. I’m staying and trying to make it work.

    Good luck!

  2. helpful_dude says:

    You are bored. It happens. You’ve never been with anyone else so you probably feel like you’re missing out on something. Maybe you are, but more than likely, you won’t find someone better than the man you’ve been with for 20 years. I’m not saying you should necessarily stay with your husband if you’re not truly happy. No one who doesn’t know you and your situation can tell you that. Ultimately, you’ll need to figure it out for yourself. I will say one thing. I don’t think exchanging the man in your bed for a different one is going to make you happier. Passion always fades in any relationship.

  3. consider_this_today says:

    You gals aways seem to follow a pattern. You are with a guy who treats you well, but since you dont get all butterflyed up when you think of him or do not fantasize about him every ten minutes, you think you are not in love with him….. This usually coincides with you finding a long lost b/f, bed buddy, long ago love or so forth. Then you wonder if you should find yourself, find your happiness with the other guy.

    Lady, love is not an emotion or feeling. Love is actions. Read 1 Corinthians 4:13. You will not see emotions or feeling described there but actions.

    If you marriage has reduced to a 1, you are 50% or more responsible for that. You job is to work to make the marriage happy as it is also your husbands job. Just make sure that you are being realistic in what it is that you expect and want from him. He can only do so much and you are not a princess. You also should be wise enough to realize you all will not be 25 again and you cannot make that stage of life return.

    Frankly, you want the excitement and fun of those early times and you want the crazy feelings again. Dont we all? But be realistic. We get older. We go through life. The bad boys that were so exciting would not have treated you well nor given you a good life. I think too many of you women buy into that thing of being a princess, always being happy and fulfilled feeling, even when it seems that little will make you all happy for more than a moment. Work on your marriage. You and hubby promised God, one another and yourselves to make this for life and to work with one another to make and keep it good. So do the work. This other guy coming about is simply something to tempt you and to get you to foul up. He will not make life better.

  4. Backhoe says:

    Work on your marriage. The other guy mite decide to make his marriage work if u leave your husband.
    Stop all contact with the other guy if u work on your marriage. Good Luck

  5. njoyabl says:

    Here’s the thing, new is always going to seem better than the old. Always. When you meet someone who shows interest and vice versa, because they are NEW, you will have interesting, better conversations. There are new things to talk about. Your interest is sparked beyond where they would be with your spouse, OLD. Everyone gets excited about the NEW, until you mess up with the NEW. Then you realize that your feelings for the OLD weren’t because you didn’t love them, it was just because you grew used to them. When you get used to each other, you can get to the point where you don’t acknowledge the things that you used to, you just think the other should know. Don’t take for granted your relationship with your husband just because you are having great conversation and everything with this other man.

    Sit back and think about what you are doing and what you want out of life, out of your marriage, and how the things that you are doing could affect you. From there you need to make a decision, because this is not fair to your husband. If you want your marriage to work. Cease all talk with this man, you cannot fix your marriage or your feelings for your husband if you keep this other man in the picture, PERIOD! Then you sit down with your husband and let him know what you want and that you have ceased contact with the other man. Forget his phone number, change yours if you have to. This is very important, otherwise, if you are still going to be on cloud nine talking to him, you are just going to ruin your marriage. Good Luck. Things aren’t always what they seem. Keep that in mind.

  6. Marco M says:

    Don’t do it — you’ll wreck two families, yours and his. Plus, you’ll be punishing a man who you say has basically be a good provider and husband, but who has succumbed to the NORMAL tendencies of boredom and routine. And that’s not to mention what it will do to your kids and the rest of your family. Instead, fix your marriage — there are ways to do that: marriage counseling, couples retreats, therapy for YOU (because relationships are a dance; when one person changes her step, the other must follow), separate vacations, and other ways to refresh the love you once felt for each other. Do anything but get a divorce. And I would give your friend the same advice.

  7. n2mama says:

    First off, a correction. You may not have been physically intimate with this friend, but you have been intimate with him if you’re sharing things your best friend doesn’t even know. Sounds to me like you are feeling lonely and unappreciated, then he came back into your life and made you feel special and attractive again. If you truly want to focus on your marriage, you have to cut this other man out of your life. Entirely. Continuing to have contact with him will only undermine your marriage further, especially since you acknowledge that you think about him all the time. At least you told your husband everything already, so you can work on this together.

  8. Kayleigh says:

    Your tone says it all – you talk negatively about your husband and your relationship with him and positively about this other person. Unless you cut off contact with the other guy and devote your energy to the marriage you don’t have much of a shot I’m afraid. You have set yourself up to live out a self-fulfilling prophecy with your negative attitude.

    The other guy sounds like he also has a family and what would you do if he decided to work on his marriage and cut off contact with you?

  9. watertiger07 says:

    It depends on what you want, it’s easy to see something you lack at home in someone else just out of reach. You can’t give you all to your family either, you need some attention to. You need time to think this over before you act rashly.

  10. Sheniquah says:

    you stay together for the kids. at least he dont cheat on you or beat you.
    he wont to try to get you back. let him try

  11. Ryan says:

    it’s sad your family functions so well…you might as well be happy.

    If you like the other guy then go for it..don’t let people preach to you that divorce is wrong…or whatever.

    You go with what you want..it sounds like you want this old high school lover person.

    Or you could just get with me :p

Can my marriage be saved?

I believe it can no matter what. I had an abusive past vowed never to do it but became abusive with my family. I am seeking God on this matter and he is revealing to me I was never loved nor taught to love and was very fearful and this all just manifested more as I grew up. I am trying to forgive myself for this and its hard. I want counseling for myself but have no money. I want to be free from this and save my marriage for my wife and kids sake and my sanity. HELP PLEASE !

    I read ALL your questions! You’re a royal piece of sh*t! You don’t deserve to save a marriage. Your just another BOY who abused a good women, his children, and didn’t know what he lost until it was GONE!

    Move on, because your EX WIFE deserves BETTER! She deserves a MAN, who really loves her and will appreciate her. She deserves the complete opposite of you, a REAL MAN, who knows a good thing when he sees it!

    Plus, moving in with the man who abused YOU, doesn’t sound like a good idea! That will just teach you abuse is ok… AGAIN! You’re NOT A CHRISTIAN! CHRISTIANS DON’T BEAT THEIR WIVES! OH, and take responsibility instead of make excuses! IT IS NEVER OK TO HIT A WOMEN… guess your MOM never taught you that!

  2. ladyren says:

    Good that you know you have a problem. Bad that you think it is simply caused by your background. Wonderful that you wish to change.

    Many abusers have it that their rage is fine… that the abused "made me do it" or that ‘It really isn’t abuse."

    There are county services that could direct you to the proper sources. Ping around on Google entering your county + mental health or your county + health department.
    Good luck

    Get counseling from your pastor. He should not charge any money, and he can counsel you on how a man is to treat his wife and family. (You also may want to read the book of Ephesians.) Get into a recovery group. They’re free as well. Turning to God is your best bet. He has turned my life around and taken away my vices and bad behaviors. There’s two wonderful (and short) books that I would highly recommend you read. If your wife will read them as well, it will help her, too. The first is "When Good Men Behave Badly," by David Wexler, and the second is "How to Improve Your Marriage Without Talking About It" by Patricia Love. Both are marriage saving books and are based on clinical studies, and you can find them both on Amazon. Good luck, and God Bless!

  4. SwEEtie PiE says:

    I am in the same agreement as you. I think it’s never too late to save a marriage. I think the best counseling you could ever get would be from God and seeking his word. His not only the best therapist but also FREE

  5. Val says:

    God is not telling you that you were never taught to love, you are logically figuring it out. You are acting like the victim even though YOU are an adult AND the abuser. Get control of your emotions or you will ruin your life and your family’s life. CONTROL. How? Next time you get aggressively angry, WALK AWAY AND CALM DOWN.

  6. secrethaven45 says:

    you need to gain back you family’s trust. This takes time and effort. You need professional counseling and your family needs to be part of it in time. The sooner you set up this professional counseling the sooner you will have a chance . Get started NOW
    Counseling is available for free for men who abuse ,make the effort to research that..

  7. candhsugar says:

    go to your church talk to your paster or bishop thy always have some one for you to talk to put your trust in the Lord he truly loves us all and he is always beside us even when we can’t feal him he is there but you have to be willing to let him into your heart

Can my marriage be saved?

My wife and I have been married for 9 years and have 2 beautiful boys. Every time she goes home to visit family for more than 2 weeks she questions our marriage. We got married when I was 23 and she was 20 and she is constantly bothered by the fact that she never got to really explore life on her own before marrying. She also says that she will always love me but at times feels she is no,onger in love with me. We have made our share of mistakes but I thought our relationship was doing OK but just this week those feelings came back and she asked to get separated. I’m not sure if I should try and work it out, give her time or just cut my losses and file for divorce. I still love her deeply and am having trouble wanting to let go. Please advise.

    Friend,

    You got the "I love you, but I’m not in love you with you" speech. I’m sorry. I’ve been there twice now and it’s not easy to understand why.

    The only consolation is that most likely she doesn’t know why she’s saying this either.

    My opinion is that people have the wrong expectations of a relationship. They expect to be constantly fulifilled and have come to expect that from a partner. Further, when they don’t get constant fulfillment they blame the other person. In fact, happiness does not come from another person, but comes from within.

    It’s a terrible false notion that there is such a thing has constant happiness that is provided by a partner. I think that once someone accepts this falsehood, they will continue to search and search until they find this perfect love. Which of course will never come.

    You could give her "space", but it’s likely she’ll chase down her desire for "it". She’ll look in the wrong places and mourn even more when she still can’t find that unspecified "thing" that she’s looking for. You can only hope that she does discover the truth, that a life is judged by truth, love, security, family and dignity and is not judged by bliss, external happiness, excitement and desire.

    We’re all stuck in this fantasy in the current society. I think it started with the "free love" movement in the 60s had has been twisted to affect all relationships. It’s killing our families and causeing a lot of people to lead confussed and troubled lives.

    Tell her you love her and don’t want to see her unhappy. Don’t let any of your emotions drop to the "low" emotions like anger or jealousy. Be sincere and honest. Ultimately, she will make her own decision, but at least you will have told her how you feel.

  2. Pollyanna♥≈ says:

    The only advise I have is an old saying. If you have a bird in a cage and let it go free and it comes back it’s yours. If it doesn’t it never was.
    I know that you are afraid that she will find someone else if you separate but if she is really feeling boxed in, let her go. Or get her to go to counseling.

  3. az_mommma says:

    Someone needs to snap her back into reality. She is being terribly selfish. Has anyone asked her if she is thinking of your children in all of this. Does she care how she will destroy their lives with her selfishness?

    I don’t buy the whole, "didnt’ get to explore life" deal or the "no longer in love with me" crap. That is what it is, crap. If she feels this way it’s because she wants to feel this way.

    Tell her to stop the lies and excuses and be honest. There is more going on here.

  4. lifelover66 says:

    You need to remind her why you two fell in love. Romance her with Flowers and fun stuff. Let her see how the two of you can experience new things together. When you have kids you begin to feel like your stifled sometimes like you haven’t lived your life. You need to win her back. We don’t always feel that lovey dovey feeling we had at first. You must treat her like you did before the kids came along. You need a sitter and the two of you need some time alone. Go away for awhile. One or two nights at a fun place that neither of you have ever been. Remind her how much you love her. Just try and let her see that you two can still have a love affair together and share new beginnings every time you go somewhere new together.

  5. Mrs_Endless says:

    Things may have gotten a bit boring for her. We all know that a great deal of the raising of the children is left to the mother, and that is just how she See’s herself, and mother. I think you need to sit down and have a heart to heart…but have someone watch the kids so you can do this uninterrupted, and listen with an open heart and mind. She may be feeling neglected by you, or things may have just gotten into a rut, and she does not see you trying to get things out of the rut, so you may have to crank up the tow truck, to pull the marriage back together. If you listen to what she has to say, and not get offended by anything……I think your marriage is salvageable.

    good luck

  6. bettercockster1 says:

    If you thik about it you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. I would seperate from her. I would take that time to explore life without her. You don’t want a woman in your life who is not sure she wants to be with forever. So set her free, take a chance, you owe it to yourself.

  7. stephanie c says:

    don’t let go too many people these days give up when it gets rough remember its all the bad days that get you through to the memorable times. work on it. let her know that you still love her and that want to work on it. make sure she knows this. she made her bed she decided to marry you young she has to deal with it.. theres a certain responsibility that comes with being married and having children. she didn’t give up exploring a life of her own. she jus started a life with you
    good luck i hope all goes well

  8. Alexis says:

    She made the decision to marry you at 20.
    It looks like you weren’t much older, you could be saying the same exact thing.
    I would take an inexpensive trip together, just you two.
    Spend some time together. I wouldn’t file for divorce.
    I would however say, that perhaps if she needs some time for herself, that you might very well take the opportunity to explore some time you’ve missed also.

    Either she will take the opportunity, and may even miss you, or she will change her tune quickly at the thought of you perusing your other missed options also.
    I think this country has made divorce too easy. Relationships go through cycles. How are you suppose to grow together when everyone, and thing, is trying to seduce you to jump ship.
    No one ever thinks about the fact that they may be leaving a perfectly good boat to jump into waters of uncertainty. A boat you can steer to "new destinations". When you jump ship well,…you’re just treading water until you can hop into the next boat.

  9. mel says:

    You can’t make someone love you or stay with you, if you try it only will push them further away. Tell her you would like to talk before a decision is made. Get a sitter and hash out what is really going on. She may just be feeling overwhelmed with the kids and you and whatever else may be going on in her world, or mind. It is alot harder when you have family interferring in your business or playing the little birdy in her ear. I was married at 19 and let me tell you, when you marry young and have a family, they grow up and you are still young and have alot of time to do whatever you wish. She needs to stop and think, if she leaves with 2 kids she isnt going to be able to explore single life with them , it makes it impossible when you have children all the time by yourself. She thinks she has it bad now,as they say grass always looks greener on the other side "til you get there". Ask her when you talk with her if she just needs more space, time alone, I am sure you would accomidate her with that right? I think everyone at one point in time or another thinks what if…you just have to get past it, help her out. Just remember if she makes the final decision that she wants to leave, you cant make her stay. Wish you the best of luck.

  10. Unknown says:

    Try to work it out. Enter couples therapy. It may help. Also tell her she needs to stop listening to negative things from her family. Or else she needs to stop visiting them cause you are sick of her going away and coming back bitter and all negative.
    She needs to either stop visiting them or tell them to shut up and never say anything negative about her marriage again. She needs to start STICKING UP for her marriage/ your marriage!!
    Dont put up with her family saying crappy things to upset her.
    Say "yeah we got married a little young, but not so long ago that was tradition!" People used to get married very young. My mom was only 21 when she got married and had kids starting at age 23. And my parents are still together after 34 years!

    Tell her doubts are normal but her family saying neg stuff to her when she is already married to you is wrong and needs to stop. Her family is the problem, not your relationship it sounds like!

  11. DEFINATELY BLESSED says:

    So, her 7 year itch held out for 2 years. It seems as if her family is giving her some reflective talks when she visits.

    IT IS NEVER WISE TO HOLD ON TO SOMEONE WHO WANTS OUT. SHE FEELS AS IF SHE IS MISSING SOMETHING AND SHE NEEDS TO PURSUE THAT.

    YOU MUST ACCEPT HER DECISION AND MOVE ON. IF SHE IS TO RETURN, YOU MAY NOT EVEN WANT HER THEN. SHE DID NOT UNDERSTAND ABOUT LOVE WHEN YOU MARRIED…,LOVE HS TO DO WITH HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT YOURSELF WHEN WITH SOMEONE…NOTHING TO DO WITH HOW THEY FEEL ABOUT YOU.
    So, ask her for a ‘legal separation’ to divide all assets. Sometimes this will jolt people to really search their heart to see if they really want to be apart. IF SHE GOES THROUGH THAT PROCESS WITH NO TROUBLE, THEN SHE NEEDS TO BE SEPARATED FROM YOU AND YOU MOVE ON. IT WILL STIPULATE CHILD SUPPORT AND VISITATIONS AND YOU NEED TO QUESTION IF YOU WANT TO KEEP THE KIDS, BECAUSE SHE IS THE ONE WHO WANTS OUT…NOT YOU. IF THE KIDS ARE OLD ENOUGH, THEY MAY CHOOSE TO STAY IN YOUR PRESENT HOME…AND SHE SHOULD LEAVE….SINCE SHE WANTS OUT OF THE MARRIAGE, SHE SHOULD ALSO DO WITHOUT ALL THAT IT PROVIDED. GOOD LUCK AND LOVE YOUR KIDS AND SELF AT THIS POINT.

  12. Amy says:

    It sounds like her Family is putting bad thought in her head she made the decision to get married to not just you. If she wanted to " explore " she should have thought about that 9 years ago it sounds like she dose not feel the same way about you as you for her I don’t think you should put your self thought this any more move on and find your self someone who is good to you emotionally and physically.
    sorry hope it all works out for you

  13. walktoeden says:

    Its okay for her to question…

    Have YOU considered other options? Since she obviously wants more, and you aren’t/can’t give it to her, can’t you let her get it out of her system? Have you ever considered swinging? Or letting her swing? Its usually not the best for marriages (unless you are both really strong and mature about it), but it can work. And the best part is that you have the deepest affection for each other, even though you can be with other people too.

    Whatever you do, you’ve got to think of your children first.

  14. Goddess says:

    Don’t give up yet, she is probably feeling like she wants out cause things have changed since you got together, think about what made her fall for you back then and do it again, you got to show the whole world she is all that and a bag of chips, if you don’t she will find someone who will. sweep her off her feet.

  15. mimi@sbcglobal.net says:

    ME & MY HUBBY IS IN A SAMILAR BOAT, I ALSO FEEL AS IF I’M MISSIN SOMETHING. AND I HAVE LIVED LIFE. I KNOW FR. MY EXPERIECENS ITS B/C HE DOESN’T SHOW ME ENOUGH ATTENTION. EVEN THOUGH HE THINKS HE IS. TRY MARRIAGE COUNSLING, AND PRAYER THAT HELPS THAT MOST

  16. marie s says:

    Give her time and space to go through these feelings or they will never go away. Be patient and loving still do not get angry and in time she will remember why she fell in love with you and will love you even more. If not then be thankful it was figured out now and not 20 years from now. You still have time to find someone new who will know her mind from the get go and not question her love for you once a year.

  17. locox62 says:

    i think separation is the best answer let her find herself and at the same time it will give you time to think on how you can make it better or if this relationship is worth saving or not.

  18. yogi says:

    Don’t let her go. It seems like everything is OK between you, no major drama, except when she flies off by herself.

    While it’s understandable that she feels that she missed out before getting married, she is also so lucky to be a young mother, with energy and all that.

    I hope that she’s not fooled by the fantasy of being single. It won’t be as fun as she thinks.

    I really hope you’ll work it out.
    Any chance you can send the boys with family and take a vacation just the two of you?
    She probably misses the adventure that she had when you were dating.

  19. Jennifer says:

    She needs this space right now. Let her have her separation. She will come back to you if she discovers herself and finds you are the right one for her. Then it will be really good for both of you. If she finds she doesn’t want to come back, then love her enough to let her go, and realize that there will be someone else for you in the future.

  20. hourglass_beauty says:

    Maybe you should try marriage counseling?

  21. michelle says:

    i say once you seperate its over try to stay in the home if you can and work things out but in the ned it takes two people and you cant make her do anything she doesnt want to do

  22. Brandie H says:

    Don’t let go…Ask her what is really going on…what is she really missing? Ask her what she will do if YOU move on and then she realizes what a good thing that you two have?

Can my marriage be saved?

My wife and I have been married for 9 years and have a 5 year old son together. We are in our mid 30s. To say our marriage hasn’t been good the last few years is an understatement. We’ve fought routinely throughout our marriage from the sharing of household chores, cleanliness, anger, management, etc. You name it we’ve probably argued it. Although we try not to fight in front of our son, many times he has witnessed shouting matches between the two of us. Both of us agree that this is something we must stop doing. However, we have so much anger (or at least I do) that we can’t stop ourselves sometimes. In addition our lust or even basic desire for one another is gone. Being intimate with one another is something that both of us are having a hard time with. For gosh sakes we haven’t had sex in almost three years now.

So to start off let me provide an example of one of the major things we fight about. I do probably 90% of the household chores in our house; everything from doing laundry to cooking. I also do all the bill management since I earn more than her. Anyway, I’ve asked repeatedly for help in the house for years from her to no avail. Before our son was born I was able to keep up with cleaning the house. Now, with him here the house at times has gotten downright “trashed.” I mean to the point where we can’t even have un-announced guests come by. The reason being is I can’t keep up. Now we both work so I understand that there are times when she may be too tired to help. However even when she was a stay-home mom (and just a stay home wife) she still didn’t do any of the household chores. As I said we have argued this topic over and over throughout our marriage and nothing has ever changed. This is an example of one of the issues I have with my wife. There are many more that I won’t go into details like her lack of organization skills, her always running late, and the fact that me and her are complete opposites when it comes to attending social events—I enjoy meeting new people and talking and she can’t stand it.

Well after living my life like this for all this time I finally told her that my feelings for her with drifting away. Now I’ve told her this before and even used the divorce word but it was always in an argument so maybe she didn’t believe me. Anyway, my wife and are at a critical point in our marriage. I moved out of the house 2 months ago. We have drafted a legal separation and are contemplating getting a divorce. Even with the separation agreement I have agreed to continue counseling to see if we can salvage the marriage. We’ve already been going at this for nearly 2 months attending joint session. I’ve even signed up for individual sessions myself to deal with some of the anger issues and the separation itself.

I know she still loves me (well at least she said this) but the problem is right now I don’t love her. I’m not sure if my love for her can ever return. I guess after all these years of arguing the same things over and over I have created resentment towards her and probably her towards me as well. I try telling myself to remember the good times we shared and the things that lead me to falling in love with her but it is still unsuccessful. Hell I even broke out all my old love letters that I wrote to her when we first meet. Also I hate to say it but the intimacy issue is a big concern for me. Even if we are able to address our issues will we be able to fix the intimacy problem? I don’t want this that’s for sure. Should I give myself a timeframe to me falling in love with her again? The last thing I want to do is stay in the marriage longer hoping that my feelings will return and nothing ever comes back.

  1. U Can't Hide your LYING EYEZ says:

    Wow, you’ve asked these questions numerous times before, each one a little more slanted toward making the case favorable to you.

    You work very, very hard to make your wife out to be the absolute Bad Guy, and your son merits a one-line mention…

    Yet in the above rendition of the retelling of your story, you leave out the parts where YOU CHEATED ON YOUR WIFE.

    MAJOR OMISSIONS from the above that you’ve included in previous posts:

    "A major problem in our marriage is the fact that both of us have disconnected from each other over the years."

    "Finally trust is an issue. As can be somewhat expected in a bad marriage (not trying to justify what I did), I strayed from my spouse and had an emotional affair with a colleague. Although there was no physical aspect in this affair I did have an emotional attachment to this person. I’ve had no contact or communications with this person in over a month but honestly it was hard for me to let her go. My wife is willing to forgive me for what happened and see if we can move forward with making the marriage work."

    "Here is the kicker—part of the reason why I finally took the step and told my wife how I feel is I met a women who I’ve been communicating on an emotionally level with since May. We are professional acquaintances but we both have expressed interests in one another and could see us dating if circumstances were different. We didn’t do anything physically but have acknowledged that there is physical attraction on both ends."

    "In fact, I’ve told her several times that I’m not in love with her anymore." and "Does the fact that I’m not in love with her have anything to do with it?"

    "Has anyone ever left his or her spouse for another person and the relationship lasted i.e. another marriage or at a minimum a long term relationship?"and "Has anyone ever had an affair and had a hard time getting over the person involved?

    "Just wondering for those people who have strayed from their spouses and had affairs..did you have a hard time forgetting about the other person? If so how long did it take? Or are you still friends? If this is even possible?"

    "I actually keep thinking about the possibility of perhaps there are other woman who I would be more compatible with."

    "I keep thinking about trying to meet other woman – someone new and different. Is this normal? I’ve told my wife even though we are separated that I won’t act on these thoughts. If I decide I’m going to than I would let her know.

    "If I do decide to try and go out on a few dates I’m looking at something small like coffee or maybe even dinner. Would these acts pretty much seal the divorce?"

    "Now that I’m separated when can I start dating? Would woman even be interested in my since I’m technically still married? I’m in my mid 30′s, a decent looking guy (from what my female friends have always told me), got a good job, and consider myself very personable…"

    "Is it fair to see what else is out there to determine if my wife is really what I want?"

    ******************************************************************

    I, I, I, I – me, me, me ME. This isn’t about your marriage – it’s all about YOU… and you’re just another run of the mill CHEATING HUSBAND.

    You mention a 5 year old son, but no details. Again, it’s all about YOU. You need to quit playing games. Stop trying to rationalize your wandering eyes and heart, while cherry-picking your wife’s every fault to make yourself appear to be a (self) righteous martyr. There are ALWAYS two sides to every conflict. Also, be aware – "your son" is watching, daddy!

    I would bet that your wife’s tired of walking around on eggshells every time you decide to come walking into the revolving door that you’ve made your marriage into… and I’d wager that she’s wondering who you’ve "befriended" while you’ve been away from home during your "separation."

    What a dick.

  2. mo2k7us says:

    A separation is for just that very reason. If after a determined amount of time you don’t feel any change in feelings for her or feel you can’t live without her, then you need to get a divorce. You don’t stay in a marriage if you don’t have feelings for a person. You rob them and yourself from finding someone to love and be loved by.

    I would say a good time frame is 6 months. That’s half of a year and plenty of time to see if you can get anything back. Unfortunately sometimes, once it’s gone, it’s gone….just worry about being a good dad and good co-parent to the children. Always keep the children in mind no matter the outcome…but certainly don’t stay for the sake of the children because they deserve better than that….

    That’s all you can do right?

  3. Jess says:

    sporry but this is big buff……your going to let your son live like that in those conditions with the excuse of it being to far to drive by two hours…LOL…why not remove him from the home with all that you have stated it shouldnt be hard at all…….sorry but your excuse is poor…and quite frankly it offends me…….as for the original man who had the question i agree that 2 months is not enough time to make a life change i do agree to give it at least 6 months….if after that you still cant see a light at the end of the tunnel then you can start divorce proceedings knowing you did everything you could….the best of luck to you i wish there were more of you around ;-) )

  4. big_buffalo says:

    Look, your wife is a loser, yes girls can be losers too, I wager she’s got some mental issues, usually lazy habitual slobs do. furthermore with the constant arguing about this I am certain that she is determined to continue her lifestyle, Im curious if you think she has a big ego or if shes to lathargic to even care about anything.

    Im making this judgement from only hearing your side side of the story though. It sounds like your wife is walking all over you, this is abuse I think seperation/ Divorce is a good idea.

    If your wife is anything like my ex that had similar problems I suggest you try to get custody of your kid

    My ex gf is a total slob and in raising our son she really only does the minimum, she doesnt really make him do anything his hygene is pretty poor she lets him get away without bathing for days on end and lets him wear dirty clothes, he goes to school a lot with his hair all sticking up and lets him wear the same sweater every day.

    She doesnt encourage him to have friends by either forbiding him to hang around with the ones that live close by and not giving him a ride to or not letting others come over. So He plays a lot of video games understandably and its way too much cause its all he talks about.

    I unfortunately cannot intervene effectively because my home and my job are far away 2 hours drive and I see him every other week usually

    TO: ? below

    I looked into legally getting him away from her and it wouldve been impossible The 2 lawyers I spoke to said that to the extent that I described above does not give grounds for changing custody

    She does the minimum amount of care it takes to retain custody

    She feeds him takes care of him gives him medical attention provides a safe(but messy) enviornment you cannot win that case in her state just because shes a lazy slob shes not negilgent shes just lazy and doesnt care about going the extra mile for her child

    What would you do?

  5. Brave01 says:

    When I read your statement, the one thing I notice is you are having issues. But, just by asking this question it shows you do care about your marriage and family. Going to counseling is a start, but you must be willing to practice. Actively participate in sessions and in life. It takes a real big step to admit that you need help and are willing to work. This is all step one, but you need to decide if your on board or waiting to just get off the train of married life.

  6. girl_zone_6 says:

    I think you need to move on. It seems like you wife is not trying to make the situation better. I know you can find somebody who will appreciate you and everything you do. You seem like a good guy. I hope you figure things out, and good luck :)

  7. Not Always Sure says:

    first off I’m sorry!!! Definately deal with your anger issues. But if the love isn’t there, it isn’t there, it’s not something that you can force. All I can say is, go to all your sessions, tell her what you feel needs to change, hear what she feels needs to change, maybe move back in together, try it out one more time and if things don’t start to slowly change, then atleast you tried to the fullest to make things work…good luck!!! & keep the faith.

  8. Messykatt says:

    The only thing I noted is that you kept referring to anger issues, and your need to get individual counseling for these issues, without getting specific. You sound like a responsible guy who has all the bases covered, but I’d rather live with a slob who treats me well than a responsible husband who has anger management problems. So you may be undervaluing this as a problem.

    It’s not odd that you’re questioning whether you love her, but you need to give it a bit more time. Two months isn’t anywhere near enough to solve your problems. And when you say you’ve signed up for individual sessions for the anger…have you gone to any? Give it at least six months and get that individual counseling. There’s something wrong when you can’t stop yourself from fighting in front of a child.

    Also, if your marriage counselor is the person who is giving you anger counseling, not only is this a horrible idea, I personally think it disqualifies him/her as a marriage counselor. It’s Psych 101 that someone doing couples counseling cannot see either of them as an individual.

Can my marriage be saved?

My husband and I have been fighting for a few weeks now. We have a 1 yr son and another baby on the way due in 4 months. He wanted us to have the secound baby, but is now telling people that it was me not him and claims that I am emotional and difficult to deal with. We had a big fight and and he decided to stay at his partents house for a few days. One of those days was our son’s birthday. He didn’t bother to show. I would cook dinner and offer him some, but he refuses it. When he comes home he just watches TV and doesn’t talk to me at all. Last week he came home on a work week 10pm and 11 pm (drunk). I asked him where was he and he would not answer me. I asked if he wanted this marriage to work he would not answer. He said that once this baby is born then we will talk. I stayed with my partents for the weekend and return sunday. He came home last night at 1:48am drunk. What should I do? Is it over just like that?

    Lady, you may not be willing to acknowledge it yet but the truth is IT"S OVER!!!

    And it’s over now! Why are you waiting around to be hurt more than you already are? Go today and get an attorney and start the divorce! Another child added to this mix will not make it better. I hope soon you can realize you are better off without this immature husband of yours!

  2. beth says:

    It can only be saved if both of you want it to and are willing to work on it. Seeing that he won’t even talk to you isn’t good.

    If you can’t get him to say anything to you write him a note, tell him that you want things to work out and remind him of all the good times as well as all the good times to come that he will be missing out on if he doesn’t try. Tell him you love him and want him to be happy but he needs to tell you what is going on. Ask him questions like if he is seeing someone else or what is lacking in your relationship that he isn’t getting.

    I wouldn’t give up just yet, but that is up to you, i would have to at least try that way years from now you won’t be wondering what if i tried harder to save our marriage. You don’t want to regret not trying.

    And i find it weird that he has to wait until the baby is born before you can talk. Is he wondering if its going to look like him?

    Anyway good luck.

  3. craft painter says:

    Many women are more emotional when they are PG but it sounds like you have good reason to be emotional. The only trouble is when we are PG things seem to bother us more when they happen and we have a harder time dealing with them.
    Your husband not talking to you when you ask him things is really wrong to do at any time but even worse when you are PG because it seems to hurt that much more. sorry to say!
    You said you had a big fight and I wondered what it was over. I think that would have helped in helping you.
    When a man starts staying out and getting drunk, not coming home till late, not trying to communicate with you, and then to not say a word when you ask him if he wants the marriage to work, then I would say your marriage is in trouble.
    Sometimes when a woman is PG, a man and a woman seem to drift a part some, maybe because we are a little more emotional or maybe because of sex, etc.
    Your man is unhappy and saying he will talk after the baby is born really worries me. I am sure it really troubles you too.
    You ask what you can do and if it is over. I do not think anything is over but if this continues then he may find someone else to make him feel better inside. This worries me the most.
    The best thing you can do right now is to let things lie. I know it is hard to do but it is best. You cannot make a man talk till he is ready to and all you can do is make him angry and want to go get drunk again or leave. So.. you are not getting any where with that.
    If he does not want to talk, then don’t talk! Fix his meals and if he does not want to eat them, then fine. You did your duty and that all you should do. Above all do not fight with him. It is a battle that will not be won. If you cannot talk without fighting then it simply does not get either one of you anywhere and after all you are PG and you need to keep your self calm and think of the baby that is coming.
    If he goes and gets drunk, do not ask him anything! You have to wonder what he is thinking and maybe he should wonder how you are thinking! When he does come in just say hello and glad you are home and maybe ask if he is hungry and that is all. Just be nice no matter what. Hard to do but it does get results. He will begin to feel guilty about his actions if you do not get angry or anything, that is if he cares about you at all. And maybe he might want to talk to you after a while. You just cannot push them into doing it. It has to come when they are ready. Men just are not like women when it comes to their emotions. Hope I have helped.

  4. CKINGU says:

    its important to know here how many years of married life have you two had? then you two planned a second issue & at what age you got married. further, I feel he should also get a chance to represent his side, put some of relative or friend who can talk to him, & work as a sincere mediator. I am sure, he is hurt. things will be fine very soon,

  5. tiuliucci says:

    It sounds like this has been building up for quite some time. There have probably been issues all along and now it is over.

    You would do best to let him go. You should file for divorce and for child support. If you can get alimony, I would do that too.

    Take care,
    Troy

  6. geminirose26 says:

    I am sorry to hear of your situation. But from what you said it mightbe best to make arrangemets to leave him. He may have a girlfriend or is out messin around. It doesn’t sound like he wants to be responsible for you and the kids.
    You deserve better and so don’t your kids
    Ask him what his problem is and what is bothering him so much that he feels the need to get drunk!!!
    Suggest couseling to him too.
    I wish you luck and a safe and healthy pregnancy and delivery!!

  7. iamhere says:

    Sounds like hes being immature, self centered and inconsiderate destroying whats the best thing that has happened in his life. Take this time to figure out what you want to do. Ask yourself do you want your kids growing up around someone like this and even more so do you want your son to grow up thinking that this is the way you treat women.

  8. kim p says:

    unfortunately, i would wonder if he is having an affair, have you seen signs of that? and this partner or buddies he is hanging with are they single? maybe he is feeling that he missed out on something and got tied down to quick, but he made his bed now he needs to lie in it. watch for sighs of an affair, that is the first thing that comes to mine. good luck

  9. SuzyQ says:

    Whenever you see drug or alcohol abuse run like hell. I would never even date a man who drinks more than 1 or 2 on the weekend, Even one beer drunk "alone" sparks my spider senses. You are better than what this guy has to offer. Go home to your parent’s; you will need a stable support system for the next few years. His "we will talk after the baby is born sounds like he may want out anyway. I’d say good riddance.

  10. lisalisa says:

    Kind of late to say this now but that is the reason why I beat it in my sons head not to marry before 30.
    What your going through is totally normal your pregnant of course your emotional I mean who wouldn’t be your tired and sick and have to take care of a baby.
    He wanted to be all grown up and now he wants to go back to being a young adult again.
    Sorry to say this but most boys do not mature till after 25 so you have a long road ahead of you.
    I would not be surprised if this ends in divorce and you end up a bitter young single mom.
    At this point just try to stop complaining but you need to control the drinking the more he is out he has a better chance of getting attention from some girl in the bar and wanting to dump on you and the kids so you need to limmit his drinking I would say go to his parents and talk to them.

    Keep calm I know it is hard I really wish your mom would have warned you ahead of time how hard it really is unless she did and you did not listen but this relationship was doomed when the first pregnancy accured.

    You should have dated at least a couple years before you even thought of marriage and kids

    Get help honey

  11. easel says:

    No its not over. You are both dealing with alot of stress with the children. You need to address what is bothering him the most and really listen to what he says. If he is having trouble dealing with your emotions then bring that to the table. He sounds very overwhelmed right now which happens. This is alot of responsibility and he is having trouble dealing with it. Thats okay. No one is perfect and you need to let him know you validate his feelings. After all they are his feelings.
    No need to get into a big heavy converation with him because some guys just can’t stand all that drama. Maybe just say I know this is all overwhelming and alot of responsibility on you. What can I do to make life easier? Then really listen to him. Yu have to remove your own needs here first to get some level of communication going. After some time you can tell him maybe how your feeling, but remember never say YOU do this or YOU do that. Always say I FEEL etc…. When you say things with I FEEL messages its less of an attack and the other person will be less defensive.
    You have to tell yourself that divorce is not an option. Thats the only way people don’t get divorced. It just can’t be an option.
    I wish you well and I hope I have helped. I have been there and done that and was better for it. You can become a better person with a better marriage and a wonderful faily if you learn the art of listening and speaking with I FEEL messages.

    I know that this may be hard but you need to have a honest and open talk with him. Tell him that you don’t want to argue but you want to talk honestly. I have learned lately that open and honest communication is the only way to have a successful relationship. I absolutely believe that your marriage can be saved. You need to find out what he is going on with him. He sounds extremely depressed. Let him know you are there for him in whatever he is going through and that you are there if he ever wants to talk about what is going on. But I would try to have some sort of calm communication.

    im so sorry sunshine some guys are just jerks hope it works out but by the way it sounds maybe your better off if it does not

  14. Marina says:

    That is not the behavior of a mature married man. You need to take your children away from that mess. It will be hard, but you and the kids deserve better. Why does he have to wait until the baby comes to decide what he wants, and why are you leaving it up to him to begin with? The first child and his pregnant wife should be enough to get him to grow up. He may be having an affair, but this is a mess all the way around.

  15. Quasimodo1957 says:

    Drunk…won’t talk to you and goes to HIS parent’s house to stay when he fights with you?

    What a mamby-pamby mother’s boy. Maybe she made him a nice glass of warm milk for him as well?

    If you’re emotionally difficult to deal with what is he? Chopped liver?

    here’s the solution. Go have an affair with a real man. Someone whose mature and can appreciate you for who you are. That’s what you need. Let him sulk, file for divorce and soak him for child support. If he wants to brood then give him good reason.

  16. ToriJo says:

    Maybe he needs to see the reality of his actions. File for separation and kick him out of the house… since you are pregnant, most states won’t allow you to divorce, but maybe when he sees life without you he will come back to his senses! If he does not, after the baby comes file for divorce and move on. Try to encourage him to be a good father and make sure he pays child support. If it is meant to be, it will work out… but you cannot subject you and your children to his ways now.

  17. KJ says:

    i don’t know if it’s over for you two, but i can tell you, yes. it’s over, just like that.

    we treat our marriage like it’s an unbreakable plastic wine cup, that we bang it into other people etc… but the truth is that every marriage, no matter how solid we think it is… it’s just a thin crystal glass that shatters in softest bump. just like that and it can be over… unless we treat it like precious thin fragile crystal wine glass that it really is.

  18. s b says:

    You deserve a lot better. Divorce him. Let momma’s boy go back to mommy.

  19. cosma says:

    It sounds like it’s over for him, and maybe he thinks the baby will change things or maybe he will ask you for a divorce at that time. Seems like he is not wasting any time and, hey, neither should you.

  20. sparron123 says:

    Answer this do you love him, ask him if he loves you?
    Marriage is hard work and it takes both to have a good one

    It takes two to save a marriage but only one to miss it up

  21. typre50 says:

    Try to stay at your parents place as much as possible. Move in with them if you can until your baby is born. This is not a good time for you to be dealing with your husbands problems. If he can’t straighten himself out quickly his behaviour is likely to get worse. So, don’t stay where you are move to your parents place. Deal with the situation after your child is born and you’re feeling better. Ask your parents for help in dealing with your husband.

  22. Islander says:

    It definatly wont get any better with baby #2. Good luck.

  23. floridaman39us says:

    Sounds like you married a loser. You are better off without him. He is immature and needs his mommy…..

can my ‘marriage’ be saved?

I’m a young new mother to a 6 month old baby girl. I recently moved quite far away to be with my husband who i’ve been married to for a year (10 months of it he has been deployed in iraq). we have only known eachother for about a year and a half, but decided to marry since we got pregnant. he is coming home from war soon, and i have had some SERIOUS mother in law issues. she is extremely controling and handles all of my husbands finances and he basically consumes her entire life. i have not brought our baby over to see her in about 4 months now, but she has also made no attempt to ask to see our child. my husband and i have barely got to bond as a couple, and he hasnt even seen his baby. i feel like our marriage is completely shot and has no chance because i get so frustrated over his mother. she has threatend to take legal action to see her grandson on the week that i was moving extremely far away from my family to start a life with my husband. she has told me that i will no longer be in control. she is always acting like it is her and my husband against me, and that she will get her revenge. my husband hasnt stuck up for me the way i ask him to, givin he is overseas, i feel completely alone, and givin that i feel like i have no idea who i married anymore, i almost want to file for divorce. i hate my mother in law and i feel like i married her, not my husband. what can i do to seperate her from my husband, even though im angry at him for not emotionally supporting me and him letting her constantly disrespecting me while i am alone trying to raise our son?

  1. rohak1212 says:

    Well, unless your mother in law can prove you’re an unfit parent she’s got little legal grounds to take your child away. To me it sounds like she’s upset her son is in Iraq and in harm’s way. And because she can’t do anything about that, she’s lashing out at you. I would suggest two things. First is you need to set some limits to mom in law. Get proper control of the finances, she’s got no business controlling your family’s money. Then set boundaries and stop her if she crosses them. Ask her why she hasn’t come to see your child. Say that after you moved, you were sure she would come and see her grand daughter. Second thing you need to do, is explain clearly and bluntly to your husband what has been happening in his absences and explain that if you’re going to have a proper marriage he can’t let his mother dictate things in the household. It’s possible that he’s not really aware of what’s going on, at least not fully. Even from overseas he can support you, and he can tell his mother to back off of you. And the first way he can do that is to arrange his finances properly, so that his wife and not his mother has access to the money.

    Now, this is very important, you must be responsible with that money once you have access. You must be able to justify and prove how you spent the money. If you mess up and don’t pay bills, but go shopping or whatever, you will just prove his mother right and he’ll never trust you with money again. Any big decisions should be done together where possible.

    Good luck.

  2. Zee-ster says:

    Your marriage can be saved if you work at it. First, you need to detach emotionally from the mother in law. Don’t allow yourself to get drawn into her drama. Focus on your girl and wait for your husband to get home. You have a family together so I think you should try everything you can to make this work. Once he gets settled back home you can talk about ways to find a better balance in this situation and to get more control over the finances. You need to be loving and show him your on the same team. Don’t make this about you & him against her. He loves his mother & she should be part of his life, however, there needs to be a better balance in these relationships and that can be achieved slowly over time and with love & patience in your heart. You know in some places in the world, people get married without knowing each other and stay married forever. Sure some of them are unhappy marriages but then again most marriages in the US end in divorce. I think marriage is more about making a commitment and riding out conflict, for there will ALWAYS be conflict in life, together. Use these problems as an opportunity to grow closer together. Don’t bail on our family or your marriage. You have problems yes but problems have solutions. The grass only looks greener on the other side. Good luck!

  3. Mystic Observer! says:

    so basically you married a tough army guy who also somehow happens to be a momma’s boy.
    no problem! may be it’s just that his mother is trying to be overprotective towards her son. I’ll advice you to first talk to your husband and your mother in law about the current situation and sort things amongst yourselves. Now if that doesn’t workout well, then i suggest you file for divorce after assessing the ongoing feud and consulting with your own family and not your husband’s. After all, what is the point of living in a family where there’s nobody who can stand by your side especially after you know that your mother in law might attempt to separate you from your infant baby.

  4. Jen says:

    You haven’t even had a chance to be married. I hope you haven’t been troubling him with these petty problems while he’s off fighting for our country. Anyways, you cannot separate him from his mom. You can talk to him and he’ll probably take charge over his own money when he gets home. In the meantime, as long as you and your son have money to live, it shouldn’t matter who is in control. He should be on your side because you are his wife now, but if you are being unreasonable and not letting her see her grandson, then I think you are wrong and may need to rethink the situation. If things don’t get any better when he comes home, you should definitely get divorced because if you or your mother-in-law put your son in the middle and make him choose, your marriage won’t have a chance at succeeding.

  5. Ann says:

    Thsi is NOT the time to make a decision on your marriage. Your mother in law is NOT your marriage, it is between you and and hubby and things can always be fixed.
    When he gets home give him time to unwind 1st. That is very important and then you and he need to sit down and talk.
    The fact is you took vows and it is for in good times and bad. You also do have a child together and he has been deployed to a hell hole which my husband has been to and it is VERY high stress so his focus is staying alive.
    You both have been dealing with high stress in different aspects. You two need time together 1st and then see what happens.
    If you make a decision now then it will be the wrong one. You to need time together first!

  6. Nehru says:

    You must talk it over with your husband. Nothing is out of hands yet.

  7. THX 1138 says:

    Your mother-in-law can threaten all she wants. She has no legal right to see your child that I know of. As for taking legal action, that sort of crap can take months to even get into a court. As for her taking control, tell her "not a snowball’s chance in hell".

    Wait until your husband returns to straighten this out. If he is unable/unwilling to set his mother straight then you may have to leave this mess.

  8. Raven says:

    wow
    so far you have coped admirably
    kudos to you

    Right
    until he married you, he needed someone to take care of his finances as he was out the country, fair enough
    now, he is married, and should be providing for you & baby, and thsi is no longer his mothers business
    he doesnt need to hand control to you, others manage to do it themselves

    talk to him when he comes back
    you should not have to deal with his mother for financial aspects of your life
    but its a shame she cant see the baby
    perhaps if you sort the other issues out, or rather HE does
    then things may be better, or she will take the hump and you wont need to see her at all!!!!

    either way, you havent had time to be a couple
    make sure when he is home you do
    its time he cut the umbilical cord to his mother
    he is a man, a husband and a father, as well as a son

    i think you just havent had a chance to be a family yet, and once you do, things should be very different

    good luck

  9. Richard says:

    You need to take total control of the finances, and don’t talk to the mother in law.

    The marriage can be saved. Make love to him when he gets home.

  10. Backhoe says:

    u need to move back to your family and let your husband come to u

  11. Jery E says:

    like he doesn’t have enough to worry about not getting his @ss blown off he has to worry about your bullshlt.

  12. Disco Stu - The $5 Footlong says:

    Your husband needs to put some distance between you and his mother. One thing I unfortunately needed to do was downgrade my mother from the #1 woman spot when I got married. Some mothers never accept this. Your husband is who has to control it, not you. If this means mom doesn’t come to visit anymore, oh well.

Can my marriage be saved?

My wife and I separated just under 2 months. I had an affair 4 years ago we separated for a month then we got back together but I didn’t really change I cut all contacts with the women I had an affair (we had one night) but I didn’t know how to deal with my wife hurts and pain I had no Idea what to do that made her feel that I don’t care much I started chatting on the internet with girls that made her more crazy I hidden everything from her had password on everything, I wasn’t willing to do counselling or anything. I continued chatting and neglecting my marriage and my family. But I never met any women and didn’t intend to meet women because I the grass wasn’t greener on the other side. 2 months ago I was overseas she found women’s pictures that when she decided enough is enough. Just 2 days before I returned home she told me she is leaving and that is it. She left the house with the kids to her parent’s house. I came back I realized what I did to her I was divested shocked depressed. she didn’t want to talk to me I just texted her tens of text messages she told me that is it you are not my husband any more you are just the father of my kids. Her parents read from her page and add more they just want her to devoice me no matter what. After two weeks I moved out o the house so she and the kids can move back and have their own space. I asked her if she willing to do counselling with me she didn’t want to after 3 days I asked her again she said why I need to do counselling I made up my decision. I asked her again after few days she agreed but with hesitation. She didn’t want to talk about the relationship every time we talk she cried and so we got nowhere. We started our counselling one month ago the first session was very hard. The counsellor asked her why are you her she said to have happy separation. She said once in that session show me your actions that gave me a bit hope. We had 3 counselling sessions so far and she is willing to keep doing counselling with me but she doesn’t want to give any impressions that she is willing to work it out or to give me hope. her parents are mad about it when they knew she start doing counselling she told them she is doing it for happy separation then they calmed down. Where are not talking about the relationship at all between counselling sessions. the counsellor asked her when can you talk about it she said I am not sure if I want to talk about it then she said if I see honesty then I might be able to talk to him. I am not pressuring her or poshing her giving her all the space and time she asked for offering her my support and everything she needs but she is trying not to ask me to do for her anything sometimes she pick up the kids from my place we have dinner together or coffee and talk normal talk. But she doesn’t want to come with me and the kids out for dinner or coffee she said I don’t want to give u foals hope. But the only good thing is that she is doing counselling and willing to keep doing it.
We have been married 14 years we have 3 kids 4, 9, and 11. She didn’t tell me I don’t love you at all. she doesn’t want flowers gifts letters emails or anything she thinks that all put her under pressure.
The only place we talk about the relationship is at the counselling.
I am willing to do what it takes to change and make my family happy I am doing psychology counselling I just want to show her my actions not my promises.
