Hi, I have spent the past three months on what seems like a crash course in relationships. My wife of seven and half years told me she was not happy and was thinking of divorce in July of 2006. I was in complete shock, I knew things were not great; however, I believed that we were just going through a phase that would pass. We have a s(2) and a s(5). At first I thought it was all me, working to many hours, not meeting her emotional needs, being unsuportive of her position as a stay at home mom. I then found out that she has been having an EA with an individual from another State for at least the past year and maybe longer. This is a person that has stayed in contact with her over the past 15 years. They never really dated, they met each other on vacation as teenagers.
When my wife asked me to the leave the house I refused and said I was not walking away from her or the family and wanted to work on our relationship. We have been at this place for the last month and half. Too many details to list out; however, as you may guess there have been good days and bad days with the most recent her still on the path of wanting a divorce.
From what I have read I thought it would be good to get involved with a group of indivduals that appear to either be at the same crossroads in their lives or have figured out how to get past this issue and move on. I am presently in counseling, relying on my friends way to much and hoping and praying to God every day.
