Since "D-day" six weeks ago, my wife has shown ZERO INTEREST in working at the marriage, despite many, many attempts by me to say "let's try." All she will say is "What if it doesn't work? I can't 'do this' again!" meaning, be in this place again where Choc. says "I will no longer live in a sex-less, affection-less marriage. I have called her on it 3 years ago and 5 years ago and several times before that, each without any real sustainable improvement from her, and I think she's just tired of having a mirror held up to her own issues.
(Yeah, once every 3 years or so, I do complain about the "no sex/no affection" thing -- I'm so NEEDY, aren't I?? )
So, since this has started, every book I've read, every website I've visited, every effort I've invested has gone toward trying to save my marriage. Every book she has read, every website she's visited, every effort she has invested has gone toward trying to get OUT of the marriage. Choc.
