I have done so good letting my wife have the space she needs, but I am not sure how much longer I can do it. I truly miss being next to her having her support me. I try so hard to keep my footing about me but I feel the rocks begining to make me stumble again.

Be strong Dragon. You are working so hard to make thing better with your wife. Continue your hard work and focus on the positive improvments you are making with in yourself and with your relationship.

I am sorry, i dont know the entire situation. If your wife was the one asking for space, all you can do is go on each day with as little thought of her as you can. I know that is a very difficult place to be. But really you have no choice. If you think she is taking to long and you are not getting any positive feeling about being together again, maybe you should just straight out ask her. But if you do you must be able to accept the answer she gives you. Good luck.

Dragon,
I read my original post and had to edit it. I am trying very hard to phrase this in a way that does not make me sound unsupportive or like a bee with an itch. You say you miss her and her supporting you, she might be the one that needs support right now. With all of the things that you two have gone through, it doesn't sound as if she's ready to forgive and forget. If I recall correctly you and she are seeing a councelor, perhaps he could give you some advice on how to deal with your issues independently until she's ready to take on that role again. It will probably make your marriage much stronger in the long run. I really do wish you and your wife the very best of luck and I am so happy that you both are willing to fight so hard for your marriage!

(((((((((((((( dragon ))))))))))))))
When you feel the rocks beginning to shift, stay put for awhile on one that feels sturdy. Take a breather...take a rest.....let some of the rocks move around a bit. As they begin to settle again, you can continue on your course....it may bring you in a different direction, but that's ok. There are always more ways to get to a place than in a straight line  Hoping you find your direction and the strength to coast for awhile.  sabby |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
