Quote: Sure, and it may get 'worse'. But what is 'better' and what is 'worse'? For me 'better' is I get out of the 'needy' phase of MY life and eventually fall in love wiht a woman who isn't dependant on me for their self esteem. I do not know who that woman is yet. It may be my wife. So ask YOURSELF honestly, "what does 'better' really look like?" Is it you and your wife 'getting back together' or is it you in a relationship with a woman who is emotionally together, loves you implicitly and you love her and neither of you NEED each other to live but instead build a loving interdependence on each other? Ask your self if your wife is CURRENTLY that person for you, and are YOU that person for ANYBODY right now? Or do YOU still have a ways to go?
Another bit of great insight from you Frank. Thanks. I KNOW I'm not that person right now but I am closer to it than I ever have been before and I'm committed to getting all the way there. I also know she's not that person either, which is why she's "exploring", "needing space" and contemplating ending our marriage.
