My wife and I have had are problems over the years. The last year has been the hardest for me because I have learned what we did wrong through sites like this one. My question is how long does one keep trying to deposit love units etc.. when it's only one person doing all the work. In addition, the other person is saying I don't love you I don't want to grow old with you etc.. If anybody has had an experience like this please let me know. I want this to work and will give much more but I want to feel like there is hope.

If you are the only one doing any of the work, i.e. depositing, and your spouse is constantly debitting the account, this is going to cause a lot of resentment. I have been there before. I became very resentful and felt quite unloved. The best thing to do is be yourself and try as hard as you feel comfortable with. DON'T SELL YOURSELF SHORT! My husband always said that everything should be 50/50. Now I realize that 50/50 means sometimes it will be 70/30, 80/20 etc for either spouse in hard times. But it all equals out if both people believe in this. If not, it can be a hard road. Luckily for me, we are both trying and what has happened in the past couple weeks is promising.
