My ExW is trying desperately to friend zone me right now. It's not going to work. Don't get me wrong. I'm not being a jerk, but I'd rather be fired as a husband than demoted to a friend.

Her story as you've told it doesn't pass the smell test mate. Seriously, have you noticed any other out of the ordinary behaviour? New hair cut? New underwear? Slimming? Hitting the gym? Staying out later? Anything like that? I really hope there is no OM involved but I could change your sig to mine and it would be just about right. Sorry man but that what I see here.


I have seen nothing to suggest that she is seeing anyone else she is spending a lot of time on face book so might be on the way to or having an EA one of her friends has left her husband and she spends quite a lot of time in her company so I am sure she is not involved with someone else.

My wife tells me the following reasons for wanting out of the marriage
I did not spend enough quality time with her and our children
I did not treat her well the way I spoke to her and to our children I did not see it but if she feels this then it must be so
She feels that over the years and I am talking many many years I have been controlling she stopped going out with her friends because I was jealous when she talked to other men
I took her for granted and she felt neglected
She says I'm did not do my share of the house work or treat her as an equal she felt that I always saw myself as superior
She is rewriting history when I talk to her everything that I say she gives another point of view a negative one it seems she was totally unhappy
We have three beautiful children and I love them all dearly
She is moving on with her life she wants nothing to do with me I need to find a way to start moving on I still love my wife how do I put her to the back of my mind and let her go how do I loose my feelings for her.
She seems so normal about what has happened she does not seem bothered by this in the slightest she never bring up conversations and does not want to work on repairing our marriage
