This comment was by Ron in reference to the post – 5 Ways “Taking Space” Can Aid Your Marriage
This article was a good read. I’m currently going through this with my wife of almost nine years. I’m struggling with it badly. I’ve been a “me first” husband for a long time, about five years at least, and now she is ready to move on. We have three great kids and want what is best for them,
I’m not ready to give up on our marriage and she is trying to hold on, but I can’t seem to let her have the space she needs to get her head clear.
This article helped point me in the right direction, though. As hard as it might be to give her the space she needs, I know it is what is best.
But what do you do when you need some affection too? That is the part I’m struggling with the most . Thanks for the insight.
