Man, I'm going thru alsmost the same thing. We were married only 2 weeks ago though. She came to me and told me she doesn't know if she loves me like a friend or a husband. I'm devistated.
First I think that as men we could never understand the pain a woman feels when she has a miscarrige. It takes an unbelievable toll on them, I'm sure.
I have told myself, and you may want to try the same thind, that I can only fix myself. We can't force someone to love us. I think many of the root causes of our issues were things that I did (Short temper, not helping enough w/ our 2 children, etc.). I need to fix them first and if that helps us get back together, great, if not, I will be a better man in the future.
Good luck, my heart goes out to you. ↑ |

| Bill you are right ,,i have gotten so much info on miscarriages but i will still never know the sadness and pain she felt and still feels, I can admit i was a crummy husband , but i know that now and i am getting prof. help to deal with my issuees of communication and she see that i am changeing but she says she is so scared that i will resort back to my old ways ,, i know its gonna take time for her to forgive me ,,but she is just gonna jump the gun and get a divorce,, she says she still loves me but its easier to just get a divorce,,,i just dont know if i should cooperate with a divorce if that is what she wants or should i keep fighting to keep this marriage alive so she will see that i am changinf for the better,,, i know onl i can answeer this but ,,,,any advice does help a guy out ↑ |

Man, I am amazed at how much our lives seem to parallel right now Jimmy. I am a little more lucky in that my wife is speaking openly and were still living together.
My advice is to take it SLOW. I feel that her mentioning 'hurting her AGAIN' is pretty big because it means she has left the door open to there being an AGAIN. I just think you need to find your faults in what seperated the 2 of you in the first place and work on them, honestly WORK. We can't change thier feelings, only our actions. If you truly change, not just change for her, I think you have a shot (I say this from 2 paragraphs of info! lol)
I would give her space, work on yourself for a little while, then court her again. Do the things you used to do when you dated, bring flowers, leave her a note on her windshield telling her how much you love her, etc. But letting her sort her feelings w/out feeling pressure is soooooo important. As men we want to control situations, fix problems. This is something that is out of our control, we can't just grab a tool and 'fix' it.
Keep me posted! Good luck. ↑ |
