A couple things to try, just for giggles.

Church.

Major life change (ie. no booze, period).

In my experience, women need proof, or physical demonstrations, of a change of heart.  If you can identify one thing you can give up, something so dear to you that it proves that you value your wife more than you value yourself, then giving that thing up can make the difference.

If that one thing is so important that you can't give it up, then you've already made your decision as to what is most important in your life.  It may be totally unfair for her to demand that you give up something and make the choice between that and her, but if that's what it takes, then you have a choice to make even if it has nothing to do with any real problem you may have.

Some women need that reassurance, that you'd give up something that is very important to you, for no reason other than she wanted you to give it up.  They make false dilemmas that can only be solved by divorce or giving up something you value for no reason other than she wanted you to give it up as a symbolic gesture of your love and devotion.  So it's up to you to make the choice, and decide if making that choice will strengthen your bond or create a resentment that will ruin your relationship just as surely as her resentment would if you don't decide in her favor.

Logic has nothing to do with it.  It rarely does.  Make your choice, either her or your life as you knew it.  In my limited experience, only the very rare lucky man gets both.
Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

well... in real life... when people ask me about women and what to do...

I just tell em... "you do realize who you are asking right?"   They allways go... "uh... oh yeah... nevermind.."

I know how to get divorced and how to survive afterwards and all that... I even know how to get new ones...  Keeping em is way out of my field of expertise.

My girfriend now is going on three years... allmost a record...  I attribute it to her living 60 miles away but.... what do I know?

Nope. way too old to be set up for the 'conditioning' that women employ to make men fit companions to live with. Old dogs don't dig the new tricks.

Women should be obscene, and not heard.

Wives are over rated, marriage was invented by a very smart and crafty evil woman.

Wives are easily replaced..there are more females on the planet than males...and lets face it after a few years with one it gets really boring.

I got a cleaning lady,

2 clubs within walking distance,

7 restuarants within walking distance,

3 markets..2 liqour stores

3 supermarkets and 2 that will deliver to my door

1 girlfrield and another that just likes screwin and has a collection of ..umm  toys.

2 hamsters .. one grossly overweight ..the other I think is just a retard and hardly moves or eats.

bout 20 relatives within 50 miles..that are costantly hookin me up with tail...thats actually a negative cuz their idea of a "good woman" is not mine...I do not like "good" women ..only the nasty ones!

1 ex-wife who's remarried to a well to do lawyer now and keeps her insane arse off mine.

60-70 hour a week job

a neighbors cat that keeps sneaking into my garage and sleepin on my z4 soft top and leaving squealing cat hair all over it...which I just may cure with a radiator coolant leak...

daughter thats going to Santa Cruz State and is costing me my left arm and both my nards to support.

so who needs a wife..???


oh..and I have a CH stick and pedals..combo and Trackir  and Aces High...and my new favorite stock (VC) just made me over 10k in pure profit  in the last 40 days..life is good....wife is'nt

wives ARE overrated...there is one thing I miss about being married......i just cant recall what it was ....if anything.

I'll only remarry when I'm too old to wipe my own arse and need help.

Just a thought but spometimes its worth thinking if you realy love someone but you can see that you are no longer making each other happy it might be best to let them go and find the happiness they and you  deserve. Real love might mean letting go.

I came to that conclusion after my first wife left. Bloody heart breaking at the time and I still feel bad that somehow I must have made her so unhappy that ultimately she had to leave. But in the end I could see that by hanging on she would have been unhappy and I couldn't spend my life knowing that I was the cause of that. To hang on to her would have been selfish.

I'm now re married and its just grand. I'm also content knowing that my ex has gone on to find a new partner start a family and has found her happiness again.

Sometimes you got to realize you are carrying around dead weight and have to get rid of it or live miserably.
  If after a reasonable time to try to work things out and it`s still not clicking, then dump it. Get on with life. It`s too short to be burdened with someone elses baggage if they don`t fit the bill.
  Relieving myself from my first wife was probably one of the best decisions I have ever made. She was a royal pain in the arse.
  Been married to my second wife for 33 years on July 8th of this year. That was the second great decision I made.
  She`s stuck through the good times, the bad times and the so so times. She stuck through the initial, "I`m not ever trusting anything that wears a skirt" times, including the extreme skirt chasing on the side. She stuck through the outlaw days and I can say was the absolute best for watching your back. She proved this on one occasion to the max.
  We`ve been through good health , bad health, injury and loss together.
  A lots of times we don`t even have to say anything to each other , because we allready know what the other is thinking.
  The key is we are very happy together and pretty much see eye to eye on the majority of things.
  Don`t live life dragging your feet in the mud. If you aren`t happy, don`t drag it out. Get on with it. Happiness may just well be around the corner for you.
Democracy is two wolves deciding on what to eat. Freedom is a well armed sheep protesting the vote.

The hardest part is convincing them that you would love to stay but for their own good you should split up.  

I might get skyprancer to write my next farewell speech... he has the..... "sensitivity" that I seem to lack.

hang... friends?  yeah.. they make better friends than wives if it's like one of those friends that you see every 10 years or so for lunch.

Alcohol induced paranoia? All you need is aspirin to ward off the threat of DVT, and something to help with the boredom.

You may get a big surprise - Things might even get better. Believe me, I know what I'm talking about. ;)
