2020 help me please - 02/08/20 06:40 AM
Ok new to forum hello everyone. Hello all and I have been reading a few of discussions.
I am ashamed to say I could not find this when I first researched months and months ago.
I actually found this googling "my wife wants a divorce and she is a total *itch to me now" - No kidding 2nd one down.
Anyway I want to try to buy the book but which one - here is my issues:
Me husband 55, wife 49. 3 kids, 15, 13 and 8 yrs old. Married for 20 or so years. We had issues for years and saw different councilors no success. She and I dont agree. For example parenting. Punishment for kids. Nagging or reminding. Supportive wife or not. etc
For last 6 months I found a marriage councilor that was very helpful. She helped identify issues with us. I thought it was all my fault. For example if I tell the kids its time for bed, turn off devices and they dont listen, then i turn off internet. Well the kids ran to mother, cried and complained and then she yells at me to turn it back on. Happens lot even recently after being told by MC that what she is doing is not good.
On her side of issue I am poor provider (business went down, looking for job, cannot get a good job so sometimes quit or laid off). I am not good father too harsh in punishment or nag too much. She does not agree on punishment or even yelling or nagging. She hates nagging. Since I am home I try to do cooking not very well. Cleaning house is not great according to her. She has had to help look after finances for years. I would look for job, try to reboot business and look after household as best as I could. For a while I did not realize it she was doing almost all of this herself and I somehow was not aware of it. I am guilty apologized and am trying to cook better do more housework and still rebooting business and looking for job to help out. I still bring in money from low business income around 5000 every 6 months or so. I have tried to reconnect with kids to have relationship.but really hard. I am out of shape now and bald. No attractive at all. I dont have many friends because basically I picked my family to be with over friends.
So now she wants to separate then divorce. We cannot even afford that. So she wants me to move to basement until she can make approx 1/2 of house then give me a buy out.
I have seen MC, doc, pastor etc. Most say I am a normal guy with good intentions and things done wrong which I corrected. I have spent more and more time with MC and asking if I am crazy and I a good catch for ladies.MC says yeah not that attractive. i dont want my family to break up. i rather stay in this family i have accepted her faults and she says she has tried for my faults, tried to help me job wise etc.
She does not want to try, not in love with me, does not love me, and wants me out as soon as possible,
Dont get me wrong. Through MC and self reflection and improvement I have figured out that she is not a perfect wife either. PS we both dont do drugs, nor gamble nor cheat physically. She drinks a little beer on vacation maybe but otherwise we dont drink, nor smoke. AND I do NOT CARE ABOUT SPORTS. She wishes I did I guess to be in more shape.
Possibly she is having an emotional affair with another guy but he seems to be cool and waiting as far as I know for me to get out of way. Though he is married too (lol). Not sure but she is always where she says and at home so perhaps the talking to each other is all they are doing. She mentions this other guy alot as friend. Now I am NOT allowed to ask where she goes and turns off any tracking ability which I merely used to see if she is near a store where I need things. IF I CALL HER too much while she is on business calls then she gets mad. If I dont call and need some food item then its hard.
I have little money, little time left and i am probably 911 situation with wife who wants out now. Sorry for my crazy all over the place email. I am desperate for help. I am writing this at 130 am. so sure its all over the place with bad grammar.
Which book do I buy. I am the only one trying to save this marriage.
Divorce Busting OR It take one to tango or what. I have watched the founders youtubes a few and they seem genuine. Phone coaching and 2 day course way to expensive.
thanks
