DQ - It was an event that was the final trigger. It was the week before I was about to hand her a letter saying that I could not live in a marriage like this any longer. I was so withdrawn and I'm sure depressed looking to her, she knew that our marriage was in crisis.
Also she had been trying by stepping up ML, but at that point it still felt like a chore from her without feeling. From her side, she was feeling that she was doing her part, trying very hard to step up her physical affection towards me and still not making me happy. She finally was as frustrated as I was and that's when she wrote her letter to me saying that she was ready to really work to repair our marriage.... she couldn't live in a marriage as it existed.
Through it all I continued to pray that if we were truly meant to be together that we would be shown a way to make our marriage work again. I asked for the chance to open our hearts to each other, a chance to share our love and to know each other in deep and meaningful way.
We have been given our chance to love and grow together once more. It is truly a gift to be given this opportunity to heal our relationship. It's a gift we have been given and that we are giving to each other.
