Y Is It So

Written on January 25th, 2011
I've been married for almost 6yrs and i feel like i've reached the end of my compassionate,understanding,compromising wifely duties. He's always there talking but i feel nothing behind his words, i think the finacial situation of me being the soul provider has overwhelmed and sucked me dry :-( and now it's like i still care about him but i honestly feel no love inside me for him anymore, we have a son together so i thik that's  the only thing keepin me there. But even though he's always there with me i feel no connection mentally physically spirtually and i feel absouletly LONELY IN MY HEART!

    I have been in a similar situation. I used to be this hopeless romantic that believed love conquered all. My wife and I have struggled for 6 years now. There have been good and bad times. Times when she would decide to try and times when I would. Until recently, those times haven't been at the same time. I'm scared as heck but I'm ready to try one more time for the sake of my son. I have decided that I will NOT just bite my tongue anymore. The only chance to make things work is to make your needs known. My point........Don't give up on your marriage but don't give up on yourself either.

    What was the initial reason for the two of you to start drifting apart? Start from there, try to correct the reason why it did not click. You do not give specific reasons and it becomes difficult to help.

    I felt similar when i was married. I was a housewife and not the sole provider, but i felt the strain of living so far away from all my family and friends, the inability to get a job, let alone one in my own field, and taking care of every little thing so much that any hope i had in my marriage was gone. I adopted his son so i felt a strong commitment to him.



    one day i realized that i was just growing old and waiting to die, i felt like my life was over and i thought i would never have anything new or fun again. I gave up my marriage to save myself and i still work hard to see my son and i do all the right things like paying child support etc.



    be careful that you dont let yourself fade out trying to do the right thing.
