You didn't drive her away, sweetie. She got in the driver's seat of that car all by herself. So stop blaming yourself. Yes, you are 100% responsible for your half of the marriage. But she's not owning up to her half. She's blaming her half on you, too, and that's not fair.
I hear someone who doesn't like himself. The things you have chosen to do are with other people. I am not knocking them in any way, shape or form, okay?! Really. I just want you to like yourself. I want you to be okay with just you...that if you are on the beach alone...it's good. If you are eating lunch alone at good restaurant and table for two, the food is still good. (The conversation is GREAT!!!)

Sorry if you think I'm picking on you. Really, I'm not.
