Hello,
My wife Evelyn and I have been married for almost 5 years. We have a 4 year old and 3 year old, she also has a 13 year old that calls me dad and I claim as my own.
When we got together Evelyn made me feel like a king. She was so wonderful and did so much for me, it made me feel so special. I took it for granted and started to expect the above and beyond to continue. I then expected her to go above and beyond the above and beyond.
I feel into a depression for the last two years. The harder she tried the worse I was.
Demanding, controlling, ungrateful. Two months ago she stayed out all night. I know she is not cheating. I was trying to find her, I listened to the voice mail saved on her cell phone and I heard a message I had left her. Mean, hateful, demanding. wrong. If she had treated me like that I would have gone crazy. It opened my eyes and allowed me to "snap out of it"
Here is the problem. She says I was supposed to be the nice guy, I was supposed to be the one that never was going to hurt her (she has a past that saw her abused physically and mentally) She says she resents me, doesn't love me, and wants to leave, that she is just around now cause she is trying to let me down easy, that she knows it will be hard on me.
I love her with all my heart. All her gripes about me for the last two years are correct, I was wrong and I am saying that and apologizing for it. I am asking her for a chance to show her I am the person that I was when we got together , that the person I was the last two years was not me (but the depression) I need her to give me a chance. Please pray for us, that we can stay together and that she will not leave, that she will open her heart to me again and allow our love to grow strong again. Please pray for our family to remain whole and that I can be the husband she needs always.
