I keep giving the EN's that I have not been providing to my W in the past. I am learning what the LB's are in our M. I am trying to keep from doing those things.

I am told love will come out of what I do for my W but it seems I am getting nowhere. I read the posts and articles on this site and try to incorporate them into my situation but again I seem to be getting nowhere. Should I keep on doing what I am doing? I'm not trying to be too affectionate with my W. I'm not pushing for SF.

I just feel I am at the end of a long rope and I am to tired to climb back up. Please any help would be most greatfull.

Dear Colin,
You don't give any background information about you and your wife. For example, have you or your wife been involved in an affair or are you just trying to rekindle your marriage?


In the end, I have nothing to lose but everything to gain, by trying to save my marriage.

She had an EA with OM for about 2 weeks. She told me of it after she had stopped it. I had an idea but no proof. I know she has had NC since then.

I guess it took this for me to realize that I was not filling her EN's. She had said some hurtful things to me about her not ever being "In Love" with me. I know this is not the case. She had just come to the end of her rope with our R.

I now know what I need to do but I just feel it is going nowhere. We have been married for just over four years. We get along but I guess we also need to rekindle the R. It going to take alot but I need a little more help.
