I just have hit rock bottom and really don't know if I should give up or go with whats going on. Last night I realized that I my heart is not into it anymore. We have been to councling several times. After each trip things are good for a while then we fall back into the same rut. She shows no emotion towards me. Anytime time something good happens around the house she will always say she did it. But if something bad happens I get stuck with the blame. She is very quick to point out my faults but not when something good happens.
My problem is I feed off of her. If she is acting stand offish I will leave her alone and show no emotion towards her (don't wnat to get my head bit off). So when I ask her why she is so blah towards me she puts it back into my face. I'm so tired of leading the charge around the house for emotion and needs. But when is it time to cut the tie?

How long have you been in counseling? Counseling can take awhile sometimes to get through to both people. I have been in IC for about half my life because of my crummy childhood. We are not divorcing but our marriage is not easy. But I CAN tell you you really have to work at it. Ask your counselor for books to read in between appts.
Have you told your counselor about what you just posted? Remember,when you have psychological problems,it takes awhile to understand them and why you have them.
MC is helping us but I am much further ahead psychologically them my H because he has not been in C as long as I have.
I know it must be SO frustrating. Does your wife like counseling and your counselor? Is she as dedicated to staying together as you are?
I have no pat answers for you but I do wish you well.
