My wife filed for divorce in May of 2011. I moved out in June of 2011. We have been together for 20 years. We have been married for 18 ½ years and have 3 beautiful sons (###-15, ###-13 and ###-7). There has been emotional damage done on both of us. I have been punishing my wife for 9 + years and not forgiving her for betraying my trust. I created an atmosphere of doubt, distrust and suspicion. Since separating, we have been getting along better and our relationship has improved. I am attending counseling for myself. She has refused marital counseling. At our court hearing June 22, 2011, she said the following to me: "You have trampled on my heart and my feelings, You have crushed me. I love you, I care a great deal about you, I care what happens to you but, I’m not in love with you and I don’t think that we’re going to stay married."
The divorce went through on June 19, 2012. I want to reconcile with my wife and my family. I will do everything that I can to bring our marriage back together.
I am encouraged by my therapist, priest, friends and family members to start romancing my wife. This is an area that has been grossly overlooked by me. In the marriage I did not sweeten my wife, I really mistreated her and not shown her love. Shameful but true. I really regret that. I am having a difficult time romancing her when there are still unresolved issues between the two of us and in addition, she just doesn’t seem interested in reconciling. Everyone tells me to give it time because she is still angry of how I treated her and that she still has a wall around her heart to protect herself. I have been praying a lot and asking God what I should do. The holy spirit has revealed to me that I should continue to stand for my marriage. I need a lot of help and direction in this area. I will continue to pray. She needs prayer, I’m asking GOD to soften and touch her heart. Is there anything that you can suggest that I may be overlooking? Thank you for your time.
