Am I happy, no. I'm not. I know that this was the choice that I made, and I must live by my choices, but it was the best choice at the given moment...
Have you ever told your wife... She was a horrible mother? A horrible person? a horrible wife? I have heard all those things, and as miserable as I am, it still cuts too deep for me to have reconsidered my decision. I made the best decision I could under the circumstances.
Your wife needs time to heal. She's afraid too. I can relate to her. The best that you can do, is prove to her that you are a gentle sole and it sounds as though you are becoming that.
If she has not left, what do you suppose keeps her there?
