I don't want to be separated from my Wife, AT ALL!!! I love my Wife and feel like I've been absolutely GUTTED by HER because she wants to "have some space", for pete's sake.

Exact same situation as you Budds, within the same time line as you. Please reach out personally if you need someone to listen, I sure could. Therapy is to far apart between sessions and I cannot afford marriage helper. Please consider.
@@rds8171 Thanks for the offer, man. I'm not only with Marriage Helper, but I'm on Dead Marriages Redeemed and Standing Supernaturally For Marriage Restoration, both of which are also on Facebook. Those are places where you can get a lot of help and find folks to talk with. I'm trying out as much as I can, but I'm going to have to get drastic, and Marriage Helper doesn't allow for drastic. There's a LOT of great training, there, and I will eventually use it, so I can rebuild my marriage, but I have to do something ahead of MH.
Guys, ask her why she doesn’t like you (don’t use the word anymore as you are asking for right now and you need a direct answer). Write her answer down and see if you can make those changes. Then give her some space so you can reflect on your behavior. If she needs space try to be her friend instead of her man or father (unless you’re a slacker then try to do manly stuff for her). Date her from a distance with no obligations to take care of you in anyway. Take care of her car, send her to get her hair done pass by and take the trash out. She will grow to depend on you and hopefully invite you back. No on wants to divorce.
It’s so great to hear a real and honest perspective around this topic. There are so many people that separate because they hear so many people say that separation was amazing and the best thing for them, and then they struggle to manage their situation, let alone trying to find a healthy relationship afterwards.
Im currently trying to give her space to figure out if she can forgive my old ways but I'm pushing yet having some good conversations and pulls are there, she just needs time to decide if she can forgive and forget and repair with me....I'm still in the house not leaving I just need help to leave her to her thoughts, I just love her it's hard
I believe a temporary separation when you’re trying to maintain emotional sobriety and the sex addict has acted out is necessary. Otherwise with them in the home and acting out in active addiction it’s causing damage to the betrayed spouse.
Our top priority is physical safety! If you are being physically abused, or emotionally abused, we may recommend separation. However, separation typically always affects the marriage negatively. Are you a part of any of our courses Jason? The SMART Contact Toolkit may be something to look into if you have not already. You can find more info about that here: marriagehelper.com/product/smart-contact-toolkit-product/
@@MarriageHelper Yes I am, several of them. Including that one. Emotional damage for me or my kids is one of the reasons MH agrees to leave. Also going on the advice of my sponsor and other leaders in my 12 step programs for SAnon and codependency.
Recently separated... there was a lot of emotional and mental abuse! And him deflecting back to me instead of what he’s doing and been doing for quite some time! I’m loosing hope!
My husband asked for the divorced and I gave it to him because that is what he wanted. But we are still living under the same roof. I been looking at marriage helpers videos and I been putting them on practice. So I guess I am still in a good path. Yes I am not going to lie it is hard but at the end we are still together with our children and try to make the best for them. In a our relationship its is still the in limbo because he still talks to someone or someones! But I been doing my PIES and trying to save my marriage.
Well we are proud of you for working on your PIES! Are you a part of our Save My Marriage Course by chance? We know it would be a huge benefit to you.

Thank you Christopher! That's right! Work on your PIES, Practice SMART Contact, learn how to set healthy boundaries (or as we call them, STOP's and CORE's) and always have a non-biased, healthy community to build you up and encourage you on your journey.
My husband and I are currently separated. I’m praying for reconciliation and working on me but it’s so hard I think that I have pushed him away and we don’t even talk anymore but he wants a divorce and I don’t.

So sorry to hear this. If you are trying to learn how to talk to him again and work on the marriage, is all starts with SMART Contact™. If you have not heard of this before, I recommend you look into it and consider getting the SMART Contact Toolkit that we have available.
