My husband and I have been married a year and a half, but have only lived together during the summers since we are in colleges away from each other. Things haven't been completely wonderful and I have been somewhat distant, but not meaning to be. My husband told me last week that he wasn't in love with me anymore. He has been under a lot of stress lately. He says he still loves me and always will, just isn't IN LOVE with me and doesn't think he will be able to get past it, forgive me for my behavior, and be in love with me again. I still love him very much and have no idea what to do to show him that I can see what I have done and I am very sorry and will do anything to show him.

Being physically apart can be bery hard on a relationship. It's hard to sustain intense emotion without having the other person physically with you. Even so, it's perfectly normal for people in a marriage to 'wax and wane' in the intensity of their feelings for each other, and feel more in love at some times, and less in love at others. As for showing your husband that you are sorry, the best thing you can do is to treat him in as kind and loving a fashion as you can. The more loving things you do for him, the more likely it is that he will fall "in love" with you again. Good luck.

Look back to when he first fell in love with you. What was it about you that drew him to you?<BR>I might come across as corny, but why don't you remind him through your actions(as Tiny Baby suggests) of why he fell in love in the first place and that you are still the same woman.<P>God bless you both,<BR>Anise

I have tried to talk to H but he won't even open the lines of communications with me. We were supposed to meet this weekend, but he has recently moved and I have no number or anything. The only way I hear from him is e-mail. I've tried to be supportive and loving and not pushy. Today I got an e-mail saying "I am miserable when I am with you when I am away from you and all the times in between. Please understand me, I think we need to move on with our lives".<P>I don't know what to do with that. I am married to this person. How do I just move on with my life? I love him too much not to do everything in my power to save our marriage.
