Hello again,

It is very hard right now to not be needy. My wife cheated on my and has shown no interested in changing herself. I know I need to live with that, but it is very difficult. I also just read "The Five Love Languages" and realized that I have been speaking the wrong love language. She wants Material Gifts, and I hate shopping. I am wondering if I should buy her things with no strings attached, or would that seem desperate? My wife has said she is now very unsure of my ability to change because of my slip-up into neediness and saying I needed to get out. I think she would appreciate a material gift and see it as change, but I am not sure.

Help!
