I'LL DO ANYTHING
My wife and I have been married for 10yrs. Four and a half years ago I had an affair. From then till now I really haven't done much of what I need to do to regain some kind of trust from her. So this past summer she had enough and doesn't want to be married to me no more because she just can't trust me with her heart. To her I'm somebody who let her down and didn't keep my promises. Her faith is gone and doesn't see how it could return. I don't want to lose her and have faith, just don't know how to go about it. She started looking elsewhere and that made me realize I have to do something to keep my love. She tells maybe it's just to late. We still live together we have three great kids, but when we try to talk about us, she gets mad and nothing gets solved.
Editors Note:
There is hope for your marriage. She has withdrawn from trying to work things out with you. That is a dangerous stage for her to be in. I mean dangerous for the marriage. The next step would be for her to leave. So it's good that you have decided to try and change to please her.
Here is something you could do to show her you are trying to change. Get the book “His Needs, Her Needs” and start reading it with her.
Are you all Christians? Please consider asking God to help you with your life. After all, if you treat your wife the way God wants you to, she will love it. God wants you to be kind to her and respect her and love her and have only eyes for her.
Here is a link that explains how to ask God to help you with your life:

If you would turn your life over to God he will help you with your marriage. Another thing you might do is to try doing some of the romantic things with your wife that other married couples have posted on this site. Check out the “Romance Ideas” section or read some of the “Love Stories” to see what women like. If you read them with your wife she probably will like that.
The key to romancing your wife is to give her lots of undivided attention and not argue with her. Be her best friend and she will forgive you.
God Bless you and I'll pray for your marriage!
