Yes. My husband and I went through a very rough time that lasted a couple of years. We were staying together "for the kids", but both of us were also "shopping" ~ not cheating, but looking. When we realized what we were doing ~ not just to each other but to our family ~ we decided that we had come too far and invested too much of ourselves to let our marriage just fall apart. We've been better ever since, but it's taken a lot of work. I'm more in love with him now than I was 12 years ago when we fell in love the first time.

By all means yes! 12 years of not talking, hugging, simple kiss or touch, sex at best 1 time a month all for 12 years. We also have a 12 yo and a 7yo. About 3 months ago my wife came home from work and striped down and attacked me. Every night for a week she did the same thing. She said she was unhappy for the last 12 years and could not live like this anymore. I felt the same way. Since then, we always touch each other, hugs for no reason, sex 3-4 times a week, say I love you all the time. Things are better and we are closer now than ever, even when we first met. I never thought I could be so in love with her as much as I am now. If you have some problems and need to talk, hit me up.

What exactly is bad in your marriage? Are you just not getting along or is there some kind of abuse?
I think people bail to fast from marriages that have problems. Every relationship has its ups and downs. You need to stick it out and try to make it work. Unless there is some type of abuse. Making a marriage work is much harder than letting it fail. But divorce is not fun! Stick it out, it will get better if you try.

I can cautiously say yes after ten years of off and counseling (the last three years intense counseling) and my wife being treated for depression.
We both are working hard at it, but it has taken a toll.
All marriages need work, you can't hope for the best you have to work at it.

The only way that can happen is through therapy. People have to change in order for a relationship to change.

Not me it didn't work out either time. I have a good relationship now but i'm not married. I guess I'm too hard to please.
