Chikar:

I'm sorry you haven't had any replies to your post. I;m very sure eveyrone is happy for you, but the week-ends are slow around here (I guess people have lives!!) <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

As far as your wife and her wedding ring, I don't know what to suggest, but wanted to let you know you are in my prayers, and I'm very happy your W has put her ring back on!! I think that's very significant.

I also think she will bring it up eventually, if you don't. Maybe you should wait till then.....pray about it. I know God will let you know if you should say something.

God Bless,

Chikar,

Yes the weekends are rather slow. Most people working on their M (hopefully).

My W took her wedding set off and when she put them back on I just felt them when we held hands, smiled and quietly praised God.

Now she wears them pretty much everyday.

S&C

Thanx for the replys. She has the ring on for 2 days and now she has taken it off for the pas 2 days <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> . Do I ask her about it? or just keep my mouth shut??
I pray every day for a chang in both our harts but she is warm one min. and Ice cold the next, I am soo confused <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> and scared to death to say anything for fear I will mess things up. Ofcorse now I am afraid that because I did not say anything about the ring that she just said
"Yup, still paying no attention to me !"
and took it off again <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />

Chikar,

Maybe, when you are alone and the silence is really loud, you just say something like; "I wanted to let you know, when I saw you wearing your wedding ring it really made my day, thanks."

Sometimes we just need to get moving even if it's the wrong direction. Because, then we can make corrections to get on the right track.

But I would always seek God before you take any advice from anyone.

Bless you.

S&C

When you get to a point where the conversation is relaxed it will be the time to address the wedding rings and you will know it. Pray for healing, for happiness and peace. I know I will be praying for you all.....

She took off her ring on Mon. and has not worn it since. Tue. I told her I noticed she had it on and that it made me happy, and thanked her. she just shook her head up and down. I then handed her the emotional needs test and asked if she would fill it out, she said she would. Wed., however she became very cold again. She went to prayer meeting with me but sat with enugh room between us to fit another person. After prayer meeting she came to the house and went in the bed room and took some more stuff, then left <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />
