Like most people that have affairs, they say their marriage was terrible, or more terrible than it was, to justify the affair. My W does that a lot and always points out that she wasnt happy. SO I guess she is protectign herself from getting hurt by me again. I know there are some things that I did were wrong, like not meeting some of her emotinal needs when she was desperate for it. Now, I am trying to meet those needs, now that I know exactly what they are. Will this brign her wall down? She says it will, but so far it hasnt.

Daily basis, she could be more affectionate and considerate.

We are in separate bedrooms. And yes she contributes to the household. No problems there.
