Hi, everyone me and my wife have known each other for 12yrs. Have a 4yr old daughter, and both have hurt each other. Just recently she told me that she no longer wants to be with me, does not know what to do. She has been going out with her friend every weekend, coming at late hours, sleeping apart. I told her I was going to change and she said nothing will make her mind change. She told me she needed time to heal, she wanted space, so I decided to give my daughter my full attention to help me in this time. She saw that my daughter cried every time I left her with her. We were still living together for 2 weeks, and then I decided to tell her I was moving out I couldn’t take seeing her do her life with out me seeing her happy with out me. Then she tells me that she is willing to make it work for our daughter just for her. I was so happy, but to know that she is doing it for her hurts, I am giving her my fullest expressing emotions,affections, communicating, and she tells me to stop, she is not going to change from one day to another,
Hi. Sorry to hear that you are going through this. I would suggest that you and your wife seek marriage counseling in order to get to the root of the problem. Only then can the both of you work towards re-building a life with your daughter. In my opinion it is not fair to anyone if you feel forced to stay together for your child. I’m sure she doesn’t like seeing her parents unhappy and she will definitely not appreciate it if she feels that she is cause of it. Please seek professional counseling for the sake of your family. Take care.
