A few hours later my wife texted me saying thanks for the CD. I just wanted to send her something to touch her heart, Make her realize I care and I am not the bad person that she believes that I am.


Your objective is out of focus. Maybe you need your Pastor to counsel with you again.

The H'sobjective with a WW is not to show her that he stills cares. It is not to prove he's not a bad guy, or that she can trust, or tell her he accepts responsibility for everything. Those things accomplish nothing but to turn her off more.

By sending something you thought would touch her heart (make her emotional), you were showing old pictures of her former life and hoping she would succumb to the emotions. In a way, you were trying to fix her. You can't do it. You have to turn her over to God, get out of His way, and leave her in His hands. He doesn't need you assisting Him. wink. Whenever I thought God was taking too long and would try to help ......I would just mess up things.


It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
