It’s made a big difference

My wife wants a divorce, but for the past two months, I’ve been trying to work things out. I’ve been dealing with a temper issue, and while I know it’s not right, I want to make it clear that I have never and will never put my hands on my wife. I refuse to cross that line.

One time, I broke a door in anger. I know it was wrong, and I’ve taken full responsibility for my actions. After that incident, she ran away, and I don’t blame her. At the time, I didn’t realize how close the door had come to hitting her. I made things worse by constantly trying to talk to her, looking for answers, and digging myself into a deeper hole, even though that was never my intention.

Eventually, I got the answers I was looking for. Over the past six weeks, things have been confusing. I felt like she was playing mind games because she would visit me. I thought, “If she’s scared, why would she give me hugs or let me rub her back while she sleeps?” It didn’t make sense, and I was confused. I thought she should hate or be afraid of me.

However, things have been improving. We’ve been using a journal to communicate, and it’s made a big difference. I’ve also been getting professional help, and she seems much happier than before!
