need help

by rick

Well I have been married for almost 3 years. I love my wife but I don't love her like I should. I've have tried changing my life style. I've made sacrifice, to make less money to be with my wife. It's seems like more and more, I want just get up and leave her. She like to bring my pass.


I am just not attracted to her. I see other women that I could be with but I keep trying to work things with my wife. Now I have hit a point all I'm doing is going thru the motions. Idk if it's my age or mindset. I have high goals but she doesn't help or contribute to make it together.

All i can think is if i get divorce, I will lose all my friends, I have strong Christian belief and it's something I don't want to do. I would rather be divorced before I cheat on her.

Anyone have advice?

"You gave us counseling without making either one of us feel that you were taking sides.
You always maintained your impartiality with us. You encouraged Rita to be more assertive in stating what she wanted to get from your counseling sessions, as well as what she wanted to get from the relationship.
You taught both of us better communication between ourselves, which lead to an emotional comfort level between us that didn't exist before.
You took control of the direction of the session if things were not moving along.
Thanks so much
for helping us."
