DM,

You will always care for her. No matter how she hurts you, she is the mother of your children. You will always care for her. But eventually, the hurt will pass. Pretty soon, you are going to become angry with her actions. But before that, you will be desperate to try and save your marriage. you will do anything you think will help your save your marriage. When the thing you should do is STEP BACK. We men are fixers. We want to fix what is broken. Especially if we think we are the ones that broke it. If she wants space right now, what choice do you have but to give it to her? If the kids are getting on her nerves, listen and empathize. Do not try to rescue.

As the time passes, it is going to get easier. Trust me.
