This post is in regards to my post "Not Sure What To Do" and the responses that I received. I want to tell you all Thank You for your support and kind words of advice. I am patiently waiting for my spouses love to come back. I am doing much better today. Before I left for work, I gave him a tight hug, kissed him all over his face and whispered "I love you" to him. He let me hold him and he held me also. However, he did not say "I love you" back. One step at a time I keep telling myself. I am trying to keep my mental self positive. I took myself to see a movie yesterday. I saw "The Story of Us" I cried through the whole movie. Maybe I should have seen "Fight Club"<P>My prayers and love to you all.

sobeit - We are here for you. I would melt if my wife did any of those things for me - your H is a lucky guy. I don't get the I love you either. Sometimes I get hugged back but not often. I keep hoping on. We have to keep trying. Keep doing what you are doing - I think you are going to make it. <P>BTW, does the "Story of Us" have a good ending i.e. do they make it? I was going to take my wife but if it's a story about the end of us I don't want to go.<P>SHA

Hi, sobeit. We are in such similar circumstances - I did the same this a.m., and h responded well. Still those I love you's...we want to hear it but have to realize it's probably self-preservation that makes them hesitate, not being NOT in love with us (that's what my H even told me the other night in a good moment [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] )<P>It goes in ebbs and tides, good days and bad. I hope that we both get to see more good days in the near future! <P>
