Reigniting Romance in Your Relationship
Quote From: pnklmnad03 I'm so sad. I've been married for 12 years and we are near divorce. I feel like he has put a wall between us and I can't get through. There has been no intamacy in months. No togetherness. He says I want him to be someone he's not but I only ask for honesty, respect, and affection. He told me he's all out of it. I can't figure out when we went wrong. How do I get back inside his heart? We have 3 young kids and never any alone time. Even if we were alone I'm not sure how we would react to one another. I truly want my marriage to work. Just don't know where to start. Unfortunatly I know how you feel. I have been married almost 22 years and we seem to have grown farther and farther apart. I asked him to leave several times over the past few years and he did last month. We still see each other and talk, but never about anything important because I end up upset and he can't handle it. I really feel like he may be depressed or in some kind of 'mid-life crisis'. We have had problems like any other couple, but I just don't know how it got to this point. Ours kids our older, so we can spend time alone, but it seems like he never wants to. I am like you, all I really want is some affection. We have talked about counselling, but I am still waiting for him to be 'ready'. I try to stay in a good mood when I talk to him and tell him I love him, but it's hard not knowing where all this is going. I am sorry I have nothing to say to help. I am sad too.
