How do i know if my marriage is over?

Question

My wife of 17 years moved out of our house while i was away.She has done this before and had an affair, but we tried to work it out.She said that i am emotionally abusive that i dominate her, she has a legitimate point but not to an abusive level.I ask for her opinion and then make a decision which sometimes is contrary to hers.Anyway ,she still wears our wedding band but is still living in anapartment, and we are very cordial to eachother.Should i call it quits or hang in there and give her space and time?

Answer 1

This is some of the worst advice I have ever seen.  Sometimes marriages get in trouble and it is nobodies fault.  If there is still love there is always a chance.  Fight (not with your spouse but for your marriage) and talk about your problems but it has to be a two way street.  If your spouse is not willing to fight for you and you can not change their mind then you have to move on for your own health no matter how painfull it might seem.
