Hi Andrew, I'm sorry you are going through all this with your wife. I'm glad to hear you are both going to counseling together, that's wonderful!

One thing that you said that struck me was that when you both get home from your date, you have to take care of your nephew. Does he live with the both of you? The reason I ask is that you and your wife are newlyweds. If you are having to take care of a child, especially one that is not your own, it can put a strain on your relationship. Could your wife be feeling like she is stuck in a situation that changes what her ideas of what your marriage would be or should be like? Maybe I'm way off base here, it's just a thought.

I wish you both well and hope you can work through your issues.

Hugsssssss
Jean
