talk to her and ask whats wrong if you dont already know. and go from there. marriage is a two way thing and you both have to work together.

Sorry to hear that dude. It's pretty tough to give advice to a stranger when you don't really know the details of the break-up. (Not that I'm saying you should be sharing them.)
All I can say is that with time things will get better. Slowly the pain will decrease and you'll start to think clearly again. Just don't do anything rash in the meantime.

I think Communication is a really big thing in any relationship, I think you should tell her how you feel and if she still wants to back down at least you told her how you feel....maybe it would open her eyes, you never know.

ok, its ok, stay calm, what did ya do wrong? what did she do? (dont get to specific please)
you have been married a long time correct? we have been married 2 years, this year has been a doozie.
communication, ask her what it is that you need to do to make it work.
if you need to stay of the internet at home, blah blah blha whatever it is.
im gueesing you have a WONDERFUL wife and a beautiful kid (daughter im thinking?)
if you need to go see some counciling, we will (me and the wife) we are the best couple in the world, but we still have issues with things.
thats all i can say to ya my friend. dont party with your firends, get drunk or go to the titty bars
you are a husband and a father, act like one ok? (not saying you went to the bars or whatever)
just talk to her on the phone, preferably in person and drain out your heart to her.
listen to her and have her listen to where you are coming from
you are a great dude (havent gotten my cd yet :0(......:0)....)
and im sure that you 2 are perfect for each other, so make it work !!!!!
much much much luck my friend thad smoyer

wow.... im really sorry to hear, that... none of us really understand ur situation... but the least i can say is just talk to her
when people get upset they tend to (obviously) not talk and then nothing gets sorted out!
what happened? (if ur ok w/ talking about it?)

if you or her cheated, just leave it at that.
is it a drug thing?
is one of you on the stupid fucking internet to long?
are you spending to much time making music instead of playing with the kid and wife ?
(there is no time for jokes here so i wont)

im goin home tommorow. were still talking ans stuff, i just needed to cool down a while.
weve been married, well two years in oct. together 7 years before that.
the whole thing is she just wants independance. she feels like weve been together her whole life. she's only 24. feels like she wants to experience stuff.
im like, she should have thought about that earlier. even if we split up, she has a daughter who is dependant on her. hell, Maiya needs her mum, so do i damn it.
all you guys have been most kind. im not really after advise, just getting things off my chest. it is most helpfull.
im not gonna let it get me down. im sure this will pass. we comunicate well, so im sure well work it out.

Hey
All the best with this. Things will work out for the best in the end - you'll both make sure of it.
I'm sure it's just a passing phase. Work together!

give both of you plenty of space, find an activity
babysit the kid and let her go on a short trip with her mom or friends
****yes she should have thought about that before the child****
****but make some suggestions, her going on a trip is better than breaking up, then the custody thing***
communicate communicate communicate
your friend, thad

hmm.. know i haven't been here for the longest... but really... if u communicate well, then leave it at that... meaning, if it's really the two of u, then it just a crisis -and you'll have plenty more....
trusting is when it all seems hopeless and u still carry on..... only because of.... that thing that's so hard to name.... -but if u really love her u know what i mean....
give her some time to come to her senses, and don't be to hard in the meentime.... in the end it's your childs health that's at stakes -not yours or your wifes.... and she knows that... -every mom wants too see her child at its best, so she'll be back... give her time to bitch.... its hard to grow up... give her some time...
the best wishes for the both of u... *hugz*

things are kinda ok. i went home this morning (weds) after being away since sunday, and yeah, we had a big chat.
im going to melbourne this weekend fri-tues, just for a break. but then when i get back, ive got like two weeks holidays, so im gonna try and organise atleast a weekend away with Belle.
i think its more to do with the presures of being a mum, rather than a wife. but even this is looking up.
Belle has enrolled in a remedial massage course. so Maiya (our daughter) will be at school 5 days instead of two.
i think Belle getting out and doing something for herself will help allot + it will be good for Maiya to play with more kids.
im gonna drop her off in the mornings, and Belle will pick her up on the way home from the course.
all will be well i think. i thank everyone for there support.
this all sorta started about a month ago, just didnt say anything for a while. hence, you havent got your cd yet (thad) i'll get that to ya when i get time mate. been real busy.
thanks

make sure she tells you everything, and tell her a few of your issues too. All relationships go through shit like this and it sux but it's just one of those things.
If you two do talk to each other then that's good, cause the worst thing is not knowing, and don't let your mind race cause all the shit situations you think of are probably a load of crap.
I've been in a similar situation myself and it totally demolished me, but you do come out a better person for it. It will make you/her realise exactly how much you love each other, and what kind of love it is. Just cause it sux it not necessarily a bad thing, and if you two sort it out it will probably make the relationship stronger.
Don't worry man, it'll be cool no matter what the outcome is

"We were walking holding hands with our bare feet in the sand and the sea gulls overhead when i broke the spell and said i could never divorce you without a good reason and though i may never have to it's good to have options but for now i need you but it was only in my head because no one ever says what the really mean to say when there's so much at stake so i told her i loved her and she told me she loved me and i mostly believed her and she mostly believed me" - pedro the lion
Tell her the truth, exactly. you dont wanna push problems aside by telling each other lies. because those little problems will come back time and time again. take care of the smaller things and then step back and look at the big picture. kinda vague but you can find your own meaning i guess.
