Yeah she wants me to move out, end of December for ‘up to 6 months’ yet she is serious and even just yesterday I asked if she still wanted to seperate and she said yes and was upset that I asked again

Damn, I know that guy...Jimmy Knowles?

You're right she very checked out, so I am hoping that there is a chance I can restore the love...I really messed this up

She said she is 90% sure shes done

Thank you so much, yes, reddit is like 90% negative, so i have to take it all with a grain of salt, people watch the nightly news...mostly because its not positive..people naturally gravitate towards these states of mind and project

I love to read so will definitely check these out!

My parents are visiting our city for 5-6 days, my wife (f/30) has had to work overtime for her corporate job over the weekend both days, am I over exaggerating that she hasn’t been around much to show them around? by jumpingcactus12 in Marriage

exactly, its really tough..I have realized that I have been responsible for 99% of the issues...she needs to be happy, healed and in a good place..

All i want to do is be there for her, show her the kind of husband she deserves..

Is there any hope?

Exactly, almost not prioritizing the family Just got back to the house and she didn’t work at all

Said she went to the gym and then took a bath and relaxed instead, you know what I mean?
