My wife and I are separated but living in the same house. Six weeks into a one year Virginia Separation. I currently leave flowers on the fireplace mantel in our bedroom each week with a short note (ie: "we could still stop this, I love you, scott") Her attorney has advised her not to eat dinner or go anywhere with me, to prevent dissolving the separation.
I'm looking for any suggestions of some other things I could do to show her that I still love her so much, and want our marraige to work. Some how I've turned into the goat, but I'm OK with that, if I can find a way to recapture our love.
Thank you to all my new friends, scott

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
what's that expression they're thinking of? If you love someone, set them free, if they don't come back....
the t-shirt version has a different answer though
I don't know the situation, but they do say that absence makes the heart grow fonder.
I kept telling my stbx that I needed time and space. I needed to find myself and just be left alone to heal. He never gave me that and it made me resent him even more.
If you can begin to heal, and reach a stage that you don't need her to be happy... then maybe she'll see the man that she fell in love with... just a thought.
You don't need to push her... if anything it will only push her further away. I do know this is true.... I've lived it.
Do you love yourself? Because that's a huge step... learning to love yourself is very important in any relationship. I'm having to learn how to do that....... it's hard.
Be kind to yourself.... you deserve to be with someone that truly loves you.
it sounds like her mind is made up. the more you do all these things the farther away you will push her.
hang in there. we are here for you.
I had left many times and gave him many chances to stop physically and verbally abussing me. He made many promises, that he didn't keep. Now, his eagerness to get back together is only making things worse. I have made up my mind. It is over now. Give her some space and if it his meant to be she will come back. I know you are hurting but, I think you can do alot better. You deserve to be loved and treated with respect. I wrote this on another Post. I heard this at a Domestic Violence meeting, "You can have respect without love but, you can't have love without respect." I hope that helps you as much as it helped me. If you need to talk I am here for you.
Your friend,

I still care for my ex so I know how you feel. I keep thinking "if only I had done this or that...lalalal". However, there was such a blank stare in my ex's eyes, that I truly don't think there was anything I could have done to save what he was dead set to do. When love is gone, you are just beating a dead rag. Don't stoop too low, look in her eyes, if you see emptiness, it's over. Start the mourning and healing process. It huurts, but each day is like the unfolding of a rose petal. Good luck.
