I found out my wife is looking for a house today and intends to move out. I’m so broken, alone and helpless. I can’t convey in words how deeply remorseful I am for all of my sins, even the ones I don’t know I’ve committed. My marriage is everything to me, even if I haven’t acted like it. I was so focused on career and glory for myself that I drove her away. Pride is my demon.

I was seduced by the temptation of glory at the expense of the important things. Please pray for my marriage and for my soul to have humility. I pray its not too late.
 
I’m sorry. Would she consider counseling or Retrovaille? Catholic Social Services has Catholic counselors, as well.

Hail Mary, Full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blest is the fruit of thy womb, Jesús. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Saint Joseph, foster father of Jesus, guardian of the HOLY FAMILY, I always turn to you with prayers to help a broken family. Help the husband and help the wife remember why they got married in the first place. Help them remember the vows they took for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health… Help them find strength, faith, peace, hope and love with Jesus and each other. Petition Jesus, our Lord, for us. And, Joseph, ask Him to save this marriage. Amen
 
Hail Mary,
full of grace,
the Lord is with thee.
Blessed are you among women,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb
Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

Who would want to stay with someone who is so sad???

Ask and it shall be given.

The best thing you can do for what you want is to thank God for giving it to you, and believe that it is so.

Approach your wife with love and happiness! Surprise her with something neat :flowers:
If that doesn’t work, let her go, God will send you someone who appreciates you!!!
Chin up - shoulders back… now smile 🙂 your body position helps you feel differently about yourself… and also helps others feel differently about you!

Dear God in Heaven, please give this man courage to approach his wife in a positive, loving way… to break down the barriers to love that his wife is feeling.
Help his wife to feel the love that he has for her, and help her heart to melt.
Help the anger / frustration from the past to dissipate, and help him to truly change the negative things from his past that need to change.
Dear Mary in Heaven, please untie the knots that this couple is struggling with, and help the wife to see and understand the beauty of the sacramental bond that they have. Help her to stay true to their commitment of “for better or for worse”, and guide her to communicate her needs to her husband in a way that he can hear and truly understand.
Help her to understand that going her separate way will not solve any problem, but will probably create more problems.
St. Ann, patron of families, please help their bond to grow strong.
In Jesus name, Amen.

Turn to the Holy Family… St. Joseph, … the Blessed Mother and their Son, our LORD and Savior. Remember that St. Joseph was and remains the Patron Saint of families.
The Blessed Mother was and is our greatest intercessor and St. Joseph the second greatest intercessor. Our LORD hears their prayers and petitions.

My husband and I recently went on a Catholic marriage encounter. If there is no infidelity in your marriage then this would be a preferred choice over retrovaille. We’ve gone to a Catholic counselor in the past and had a positive experience. However, I rate the ME weekend as a 10 because of the fact that it brought us so close together. I highly recommend the weekend. The weekend was my idea and we were both happy with the results. I’m Catholic and my husband is not. The weekend is confidential, private, and extremely uplifting. To find out more, Google “catholic worldwide marriage encounter”.
God bless. Will be praying for you.
Mary, our hope, handmaid of The Lord.
Pray for us!
Amen
 
Its so far past this point. My wife is at the “I hate the flowers you sent me at work because they were from you” stage. She refuses counseling. She refuses everything.

I think I’ve lost her and I don’t know how I will cope.
 
Praying that the Lord will heal your marriage and that He may heal both you and your wife’s wounds.

Holy Michael the Archangel defend us in the day of battle.
Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do Thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host,
by the Power of God,
thrust down to hell, satan and all the wicked spirits,
who wander through the world for the ruin of souls.
Amen.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession and was left forsaken. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come, before you I stand, a sorrowful sinner. Despise not my words, O Mother of the Word, but in your mercy, hear and answer me.
Amen
