Short version. Been together for 6 years (married over 4). Two kids (5, 2). Have grown distant after birth of 2nd child. Wife dropped the "we need to talk" bomb on 1/2/14. Made every mistake possible for the next four weeks. Acting suspicious for no reason. Looking at internet history/phone records. Etc. Started fighting nearly every day in late-January. Finally came to a head on 1/24/2014 which led to a separation (me leaving the house to stay elsewhere because my wife is a stay-at-home-mom). Try MC on 2/7/14. Found out that I was totally committed to saving the marriage and my wife realized how happy she is with me not being there. Not sure how much of that is the truth with her but her outward emotions/mood are constantly mixed. She is now getting a job and indicated she wants to get her own place once she has a job. Could be weeks, could be months, could never happen.
