We had our first couple's session today with our pastor (the man who married us). It went pretty well I was a little more emotional than I would liked to have been, but such is life. We talked about what we wanted and she still feels like she is not sure. I poured out my soul about my illness and the fact that I know that I had neglected her for so long. She says that she feels like I am not in love with her. I told her it was not that I was not in love with her, because when you love someone you are in love, I told her that it was not that I was not in love with her, but that I was sick. Before I had myself hospitalized, I did not realize what I was feeling and I thought that I could handle in on my own (stupid man) and everytime she told me I needed help I just kind of (well actually did not) listen to her. I wish now that I had because since I realize what has happened to me I am so much better. We are trying to climb that wall, the wall that seperates us now. Thanks

That sounds like it was very painful but worth it.

Good luck.

No actually it was not painful, a little eye opening but not painful, I have a very loving wife and she understands what I am going through. She needs her time to heal the pain she has had. She really is great.

Dragon,

I wish you the very best of luck and healing for both you and your wife. I commend you both for fighting for your marriage, so many people give up too easily.
