So I started the LRT last month, and it is definitely the hardest thing I've ever done. But I'm making small progress. My wife and I talk on the phone at least twice a week. And it's not just about our children, but how our day is going and the other little things we used to talk about over evening coffee. Yesterday we talked for about a hour and a half. It was just heavenly. But I had to hang up and go to work (I work 5pm to 3am). So I even followed that suggestion and I was the one to end the call. But it is def. hard. All I want to do is tell her I love her and that I miss her. Not saying those things brings tears to my eyes. But "If it's worth it, I'll do it. If I don't do it, I'm not worth it." I've never given up before, and I'm not starting now. "To dumb to quit & If you're gonna be dumb, you better be tough." I pray I'm tough enough.

My wifes adopted mother died last weekend. She lost her birth mother at 17. I'm just kind of in limbo right now. She doesn't want me there, but I want to be by her side thru this. Guess i'll just have to be here when she needs me. I love her completely. It kills me to see her like this. Whether I'm Home or away. I miss my family every day. I miss her feeling able to trust me. She doesn't think she can. Just have to keep my head up and be there whenever she needs me. Just saying it is easy. It's the doing thats hard.

Pretty sure my wife is having an emotional affair. It's happened before with the same person, and we both saw it and we put a stop to it. Not sure what to do now. She took off her rings in Oct. last year. She has not filed but she says we will never be a married couple again. I have faith that God will see me thru, Doesn't mean it doesn't hurt right now.

So, I made it thru an evening with her and our kids, no arguments, no relationship talk. Just me being me. Kind, supportive and, hopefully, trustworthy. Pray for me, folks. I could really use it. I love her too much to quit.

I wish I had your outlook, my wife won't talk to me at all. She is happy in her new life, and mine is in a million pieces.

Best of luck, I am praying for you.

Faith, Hope and Love. Words to live by. And don't give up on your dreams and desires. If you give up, they are gone.
