Miss wife

I miss my wife. It has been 5 months we have been leaving separated and still hurts. We have been trying a reconciliation, away from all, and it worked for about 1 months. Once we returned to the same household with her family, all was back to ground 0. Huge fights with her family getting involved which made the situation much worst.  As a result, I took the dog and left again. I never heard from her since. Hope the night will pass soon.

What do you miss about her? Marriage is a job that you constantly have to put in work and celebrate the little things. Don't give up so easy, if you miss her - tell her.

Hi, I don't know what I'm doing on a daily basis. I'm in the middle of a break-up of a 16 year marriage. I understand your pain, I think. We broke up the night before my 37th birthday three weeks ago. Maybe, just maybe on a lonely Saturday night somehow this can help.

Good day all and thank you for your kind replies. I will try my best, but it is not all in my hands. Yes, Diesel (dog) has been a great companion. We had a 16 year relationship as well and is hard. It helps, than you. Separation is also recent. Hugs.

Hi EveryWoman,

Thank you for stopping by. A friendly hand is always very welcome. I am doing ok. Sad and lonely. Miss wife and never heard from her again. A common friend contacted her with no answer. The only thing I can do, now, is writing her a letter by hand. Hoping for an answer. It could not come though. Thank you again, hope things are great with you. Merry Christmas.

I remember the days when I felt like I had a gaping wound that would never stop bleeding. Every single breathe was labored. Couldn't sleep, couldn't stay awake. I think I drank more than any point in my life, which only made it worse. I spent countless hours on the phone with friends trying to figure how I had gone so wrong. If it where not for the guys I had working with me no work would have gotten done. This went on for what seemed an eternity. But somehow I started to breathe again, I wish I knew what triggered the will to live again. I think it must have been instinct. My mind must have had enough of the punishment I was dolling out to myself. I remember a bunch of us from this site decided to have a get together. It took everything I had in me to force myself to make the drive. Then a big push to get through the door of the Hotel. It was so worth it. People came from about 4 different states. We went out to dinner, dancing and ended up at a sidecar restaurant at like 2:30 in the morning. I made life long friends and it was a big jump for me to re-enter life. Morn the dead and move into your new life, it waits for you. No one else can get you past the lose except the one that resides in you.

Dear linefault,
Thank you for kindly sharing your experience and advice. It helps a lot to know others before have hit the bottom and have bounced back better than before. I know there is always a light at the end of the tunnel and is not a train :) Happy holidays.
