Remarrying the Ex? Why am I the only one working? - 05/28/16 03:06 AM
So it's been 6 years. We've stayed in touch over the years and though both of us have dated a little, nothing serious. She says that she would never marry again, except to me and I make every effort to try and get that to happen, but it's very hard to get any committemnt from her on a timeline.
Tonight she says she feels God would want her to do it, she's tired of being single, and the #1 reason she felt the need for a divorce (she didn't like oral sex-just don't tell her body) would not be a concern any longer, but she feels like she's gotten to old to do the hard work required everyday that a marriage requires.
Of course she loves to be able to call me and bounce things off me and discuss her work issues or times with the kids, but as far as picking a date and agreeing to it...scares her to death.
I'm about burned out and a half and find myself resentful of feeling like the only one having to do any work on this relationship and when I try to kindly tell her that, she says she's working on it, but is just having a hard time feeling the desire to make it a priority. Like that would make a successful marriage???
Feeling a little bummed that I'm the only one rowing the boat! Ideas?
