Well here I am again, scared and lonely. My verbal abuse may have cost me my marriage. I am doing evreything I can to change me for me. I have had no contact with W for almost two months. It is so hard to give her space. I dont know where she is at, there are no papers or hint of that yet.<BR>All I know is that I am totally in love with her and I love her with all my heart. I am keeping up the finiacial end but it is killing me. Supporting literally two households. I miss the intimacy so very much. It seems that all I do is cry these days. Any one got any suggestions for me

Two households? How many children do you have? If there are no children, are you still legally required to support her entire household? Who do you use, or could you use, as a go-between?<P><BR>Letters are going to be seen as meaningless attempts at manipulation. Same thing with calls and gifts. I am glad you are supporting her. Might approach meeting her need for Financial Support. Can you keep her up to date on your counseling and AA progress? Do you two own a home together? <P>You have posted quite a bit, but without detail it is impossible to give helpful advice! What is she like? What are you like? What were your hopes and dreams together? Endless questions come to mind when you leave a void filled with nothing but verbal abuse and a PFA!
