wife wants separation
Posted: Wed Nov 01, 2006 1:05 pm
Hi,
I am new to this but need help. My wife and I have been married for about 11 years, we have three children (9, 6, and 3). A few years ago my wife wanted me to go with her for counseling. I did not think anything was wrong so I said no. Ten months ago she asked again and i said no, thinking nothing was wrong. About a year ago, she sought help for depression and I refused to see that there was a problem since this was my beautiful wife.
She has had some major stresses in her life recently and would like a separation. I am not sure how long these last and what the general outcomes are...I have told her that I am totally committed to our relationship and am now aware that we should seek counsel but she says that "it might be too little, too late."
I really want to share the rest of my life with this woman...any suggestions?
