My wife and I have been married for just over 13 years. We have two beautiful children, 6 and 9.

We just recently went through major financial turmoil. We lost our home (2 homes) and are renting. My business collapsed and for the last 2 years she had to support us financially.

We were near bankruptcy, but I was able to negotiate an agreement with the bank that staved that off. I also recently started a new career and am now able to contribute financially.

I thought this would help, but first told me she was staying for the kids ... then we went to counseling through our church and she got worse, now to the point where she says she does not want to be married.

I read about the walk away wife syndrome, and realized that this fits her/us perfectly. Our problems started years ago when we became parents for the first time. We had rough spots, but then things smoothed out until the financial crisis hit.

Any advice as to how to "win" her heart back will be much appreciated. I am reading the DVR now, but feel helpless. I don't want to lose my wife and my family
