My husband and I have been separated for over 3 weeks and no contact. Sunday and Tuesday I left him sweet messages saying that I loved him and we could work thru his porn problem with the help of God. Yesterday, he sends me an email saying he wanted to say hello and that let me know he was fine and that he got all of my messages. I said to myself, after a whole 3 weeks, that is all you have to say for yourself. What is your take on all of this? I then sent him an email back thanking him for letting me know that all was well with him and that I loved him and was awaiting his return home. Several people have told me to just sit tight but I am getting quite weary. Not to say our separation is all his fault. I have my own set of issues but we have been very good friends for six years and married for 11 months. I was just expected more I guess. What is your advice?

bumping you up the list. Resilient wanted to give your question the oppurtunity to be answered and the closer it is to the top the better for people to see. At least I think so.<p>As far as your problem goes I don't think I am an expert but it sounds like you are in plan A. All the times I have been in plan A my husband was not much of an emailer or writer. I am unsure of your history, is he addicted to porn just? Or having an affair as well? Did he leave on his own or did you both agree to a seperation thing?<p>Now I am in Plan B myself. When my WH left home I waited patiently for his return using plan A. It took a long time, more 3 months and one time it was 5 months. Maybe you need to keep sending nice notes to him. Maybe a meeting also. Maybe he can come for dinner to discuss matters now that he has been away for a while he may be missing home and willing to work on his problem with you.<p>He has responded to your email messeges so that is not a bad sign at all.
