I'm not sure who wrote that song but it sounds like it could have been my wife right now. That sounds so much like the way she seems to be feeling about us.
Songwriters. Is there anything they don't know about love and long term relationships? lol

All I'd say to you is try not to crowd her too much. If she wants space, give it to her and don't go too much out of your way to please her. She might think it's pathetic and might even take advantage of it. Bottom line, though, is if it's working for you don't stop. Every sitch is different and only you know your W.
Agreed. This is exactly where I'm at right now. Doesn't seem to be anything I can do to make things better, she has to fix herself. I'm just trying to give her time and space to do that, while being a loving H. Things aren't getting worse, so I see that as a sign that I'm on course.
I still wonder every day how long I can do this though.
M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.
