I can relate to your situation. I am a very romantic and intimate person. I have been with my wife 6 years and through the years we have had a rough time. I've found the closer we get the worse sex has become. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I've been reading a lot on this site and it seems...

Thank all of you for your comments. My wife suffers from PTSD and bi polar disorder from the loss of her 2 children in a hurendos accident. We're have been through a lot, a divorce and some rough times but are back together now. The thing I can't understand is exactly the problems I'm reading...

Thanks I was thinking the best thing is let her come to me. This has all started in the last month. We were married 5 years ago and she started acting similar and them left. We got a divorce but stayed in touch mainly when she needed me. After about 2 years she and I started seeing each other...

My fiancée lost her two children in an accident 22 years ago. As far as I know she's never got any help but we have got her to a great dr. And her meds are helping. She has an appointment with a physiatrist next month. In the last few weeks we've had a real hard time and she has been pushing me...

Good morning hope this finds you well. I just read a note that turned my heart inside out. It's like she has totally forgot "us" and everything is I me and mine.

Update to those who have helped tremendously. Pretty good weekend but no affection or interaction. I just left her alone but it's driving me nuts. We did have a small conversation but I don't think anything I said she cared to hear

I can relate to your situation. I have been trying to find a way to stop things before I get upset but as a man she has a way of hurting me in ways I never thought of. I have always been a romantic and she even scolded me about writing a sweet sticky note. I hope you can find a happy medium I...

It was the anniversary of her children's death 2 weeks ago. I guess it took a while for it to trigger or set her off. I have seen her get depressed in years past but not turn on me. I was thinking about going to see someone who might give me insight on how to deal with it but what got me upset...

Well had 2 days were I said and did nothing other than the usual "what would you like for dinner" no conversation about us or anything emotional. Last night went to bed and I gentle reached to hold her hand to say G'Night and I love you. Then she recoiled like a snake and went ballistic. I can't...

That seems to be similar to my situation. I can handle the no sex part but it's hard to rationalize no emotional reaction to a hug or a simple kiss on the forehead. I am thankful for all of the comments and help. I thought once she realized she needed help and we were moving forward things were...

Thank you for the reply LuckyDuck. I am trying to just be patient and see if by giving her some space things start looking up. As for the last part I'm just presuming but after the accident she for lack of better term "bounced around from one bad relationship to another. If my intuition is...

Thanks for posting. Very informative

I first want to say thank you to everyone. I am thankful for the support I've received and also knowing I'm not alone. I'm trying to understand things but lately I seem to be doing all the wrong things. My wife lost both of her children 22 years ago and after years of not getting any help and...

I can relate to your situation. This past weekend was absolute hell. It seems like the more I try to be helpful and understanding the worse things get. I know to well the unappreciated feeling. I work and provide for everything but it seems like nothing I do is right. I'm trying to fight my...

Welcome to the forum. Hope it helps you as much as it has me.

Yes we are back together. I look back on things and realize that in my situation I think she needed to see how thing were without my love and support to see it. But we don't have children so that made a difference. Hope she can get started with treatment and with your support and love avoid...

Fire Phill, Yes and no. She left me after 2 years for about a year. But never got out of touch. I think she knew who was there for her but didn't want to admit it. Finial she just snapped on night and broke down. Once she recognized and actually said she had a problem it seemed to let her see I...

I am sorry. I know all to well what you are going through. I went through a similar situation for 4 years. Praying for you

That exactly how I feel sometimes. Seems I get the " is that all you ever think of" statement and the look of dicust. Sex isn't as much of a problem as being intimate and showing emotion. This last weekend she was upset about a few things and did let me hold her and comfort her. I think this is...

I know how you feel. I tend to want to send text trying to basically provoke a response. And yes that's how I believe she takes it. I've found and it is still hard for me to do but to let her respond on her time. Hope this helps I'm still learning every day!

Good morning I am in a similar situation. She is seeing a dr and on meds for ptsd. I do think she needs therapy and I think it would help me also. I haven't been able to approach that topic though.

Thanks. I was tried to talk about it last night after I got home but it turned into a defensive argument that ended in her telling me to leave her alone. She went to bed and so far is still asleep. I think my best approach is to just let it go right now because I feel no matter what I say right...

Souvlaki

I don't know were to start but I guess the best way is to just let my words flow. I am with the most wonderful precious girl in the world. We went to high school together and lost touch even though I think she did pay me any mind I thought she was it. Years later she lost both her daughters in...

I can relate to that too. I seem to have trouble communicating about the simplest things and usually end up getting yelled at. I'm trying now to just be polite smile and move on
