I guess what jumps to my mind immediately is couples' counseling. Have you thought about it? The reason I mention it is that the therapist will be able to watch you two interact and he/she will be able to see for themselves what is going on. That could really help you guys. Just a thought.
In any case, I am sorry you are hurting. Whatever you decide to do, I really hope it helps you and your wife.

I think men try to fix womens' situations and women try to fix mens' behavior. I will admit I have often been told that I am more emotionally intense than most men, and I need to tone down my sensistivity. We have been to couples therapy. The therapist told us to go and seek individual therapy since we are both off the map.
