he is tired of trying. My husband and I seperated five years ago and decided to reconcile. The problem was that when he came back home, I didn't meet his needs, which is the reason he left in the first place. I know this now that I found the MB website. We are seperated again as of April. He has had a couple of flings during the seperation and I forgive that. My question is, how do I get him to understand that he will be in withdrawl for a little while after he moves back in? He says that he didn't love the other women, and that he does love me. He is tired of trying to work on our relationship and wants divorce. Can our relationship be saved by using the strategies? HE feels hopeless about the situation and has said that he has divorced me, even though legally we aren't. I have so much hope and want to continue to try, how can I get him to realize that what is happeneg is exactly what Dr. Harley has described over and over again? How can I convince him to move back home and give it another try using these strategies, even though he doesn't feel in love with me? He has read the website and says that it was as if someone was living in our house with us and wrote a book about it. And yet, he doesn't believe that if WE use the strategies of meeting eachother's needs, etc that we will love eachother again. I might have repeated myself a couple of times, I am sorry. I am so confused right now, and feel like this is my last ditch effort to save the marriage.

(((True)))

You might should go post on the General Questions area of the forum. It is busier.

Will he come here to the site? He might get something from reading the words of the WS on the site.
