What do you all think about this.

Last night was good she even talked to my Mom on the phone and was actually upbeat during the conversation. I was busy putting Calamine lotionon her (she has hives) so after we just layed in bed and i left her sleep and i watched some TV was feeling really good about it. Yesterday she asked me to call the doc for her i did she when i called this morning i asked if she wanted to remain in bed and id call the doc again for an appointment -- i did that for her - she got back and we talked she said her BP is up and the hives are from stress both work and home and she was short with me kinda and didnt want to chat. back to she needs space again

So what do you think maybe turning arounds or just still up and down. I mean if she wants out and gone then why have me do things for her?

I read you post Ark and how strong and right you are. I am not so strong right now. I am doing everything i can around the house and with the kids and anything she asks i do without complaint. I really need to stop the LBing about her calling her "Friend". I guess i just want her to be mine again and i do. I just feel thrown away - why cant she talk to me for 30 mins on the phone -

I am trying to keep a positive atitude and every time i think im making headway she pulls the rug and i feel like crap. I am fully aware i deserve the mental beating i am getting for all the pain and hardship i caused her. It doesnt hurt any less. I miss her everyday while i am at work. too much sitting and not enough busy work in this slow time of the year.

I asked GOD to forgive me for the pain ive caused and ask him to help me and guide my wife and kids. I know i should rejoice that she is still there and i do but then the negativity comes through and i think WHY?

GOD i want my wife to love me like she used too and stay because our marriage is worth it.
