Wife no longer in love with me

[aeolianchaos]

I just feel beaten again, I can't take a trick. How did I marry someone so messed up that can walk away from a marriage so easily?
We had such a great friendship, love life, affection and bond. She is my best friend. As she didn't have a close network in australia we did everything together, every day and weekend. And now it's all gone.

Cam,

You put into words an experience so many of us are feeling. But where it becomes your individual thing is in how YOU are going to handle it.

You got knocked down. Dust yourself off and keep going in the direction you want to go in. Don't let a WAW define you or who you want to be. Worst case Scenario: you are more content and peaceful person who sees their own worth and doesn't make the same mistakes in their relationship in the future.

I think what Truegritter says is dead-on. Your W is going to lead a very dramatic and stressful life operating the way she does. That isn't on you to fix. But you can certainly show the alternative.
