Thread: How I Saved My Marriage

Husband Breaks Down Crying in the Shower—When He Lies in Bed By His Wife, It Suddenly Hits Him

For years, my wife, Keri, and I struggled. Looking back, I’m not exactly sure what initially drew us together, but our personalities didn’t quite match up. And the longer we were married the more extreme the differences seemed. Encountering “fame and fortune” didn’t make our marriage any easier. In fact, it exacerbated our problems. The tension between us got so bad that going out on book tour became a relief, though it seems we always paid for it on re-entry. Our fighting became so constant that it was difficult to even imagine a peaceful relationship. We became perpetually defensive, building emotional fortresses around our hearts. We were on the edge of divorce and more than once we discussed it.

Would you rub my feet? I’m sorry I’ve been so hard to get along with lately, I’ve let the stress of life get the better of me as of late. You’re a good man Beef.

I’m glad you let me stay at home and raise the kids while you work.

You’re better at it than I am. They need nurturing.

I think selfishness (by one party, or both) is probably the only reason for divorce.

Indeed, I didn’t word that correctly.

Your way was probably better. I sound like a judgemental ass now.

No, you just told the plain truth, whereas I watered it down. It can always be directed back to selfishness.

My marriage ended because we just didn't like one another.

Probably self-centeredness, of which selfishness is an element, but it goes further than that.
