Things took a turn for the worst
Well I thought things were going great but I was wrong. Things are far from great. My wife wants a seperation. She says that it is only so she can get her head straight and that she just doesn’t know what is wrong. She say that all she knows is that she isn’t happy. Now I would normally be fine with that but there is only one problem. If she leaves then there is only one thing that will change and that is me. Think of it this way. A house is a house is a house. It is only her and I there now. The kids are all gone. So if she leaves then the only thing that changes really is that I won’t be there. Now she tells me that It isn’t me that it is just her needing to figure things out. ok that would be fine if it wasn’t for the fact that I would be the only thing that is no longer in the equation. I have never stopped her from doing anything. If she seeks counciling, which she wants to do, then thats fine and shouldn’t matter where she lives. I don’t know maybe I’m making more out of this that I should be but there are other things that tell me that our life together is over and she just isn’t telling me for fear of hurting me and breaking my heart. Things such as a simple I Love You and there is also the sex thing. Now I know that sex isn’t the most important thing but if you knew my wife and I then you would see this point of view. I have been getting the impression lately that I am not exciting my wife. I really think that I am turning her off to be honest. I think that she is getting revolted by me and I don’t mind saying that it hurts BAD!! I don’t know. I’ll try to keep you updated on the situation. For now she is still home and I hope it stays that way. (lol who am I kidding? It won’t)

The idea that love is something that’s supposed to last forever is a silly one. Love doesn’t. People change, they grow apart and life moves on. I guess the real problem is that you two have been together for so long that this change, when it comes, will be shocking and traumatic. You should seek counciling if you can. If you can’t, I can only tell you what you already know: Get prepared for a storm.
Normally I would agree with you but it’s not that simple JS. There are a ton of variables to this one.
