Still a lot of fights going on and the wife has said we're back to square one in our relationship. If I want it to progress forward I have to start all over.
How hard do you think I would get slapped if I shook her hand goodnight and said "Thank you for the very nice day?" LOL
Wellllll.......... isn't that starting back at square one?

Ask her on a date, silly! Romance her a little bit!
She's feeling like she's being taken for granted and wants some time, love and tenderness.

First, damn does she sound angry. My impression of her impression of square one is she hasn't gotten anywhere with you, she doesn't know you any more or she feels frustrated. I feel that is what you are getting from this comment too.
Ask her if by this she means she wants to start dating again. Making more time for one another. Stealing kisses and lovings where ever. If she says no than your impression was right.
Come out and asks what she wants and expects from you. Before you do there must be some changes you would like. If she answers, acknowledge her answers, validate if at possible and share your needs and hopes for the relationship.
It's cute how you put your idea of square one. Sounds like your fed up too. No one can fix the problem unless they know what it is. Some men treat women like that knock in their car's engine. May be if they ignore it, it will go away. You know it only gets worse. Good luck my friend.

I'd say from what your referring to "still a lot of fights going on" she wants to start over. Not from meeting you day one, but from your living together day one, when you kissed first thing in the morning and you had love on your minds instead of a stack of bills, crying babies, housework and day to day same thing. Remember the honeymoon and those first months of married life, how happy you both were with each other. So what if going out was a walk hand in hand in the park because you didn't have any money after paying the rent, or movies and popcorn consisted of TV and microwave corn...at least you did it together and enjoyed it...that's what she is referring to as "square one".

If you are back at square one - sounds like you could both use some counseling. There is no "square one" in marriage - there are just problems that need to be fixed in order for your marriage to be healthy. Get into marriage counseling and start moving forward.

Simply say ok give me the diamond and I will shake your hand good night, then leave and go somewhere else to sleep.
She slapped you really hard with that comment.
Tell her before you leave that your open to professional counseling with her but you aren't going to fight anymore.

Try it and sleep on the couch and see what she does about that. That's definitely taking back to square one. Good luck.

Play this by ear if you want this lady back. She wants square one? Yeah right! She wants the sparks and kindness/thoughtfullness from before!

perhaps she is saying let's forget what you are fighting for. let's not dwell into who is right or who is wrong. let's go back to when you two were in love and have a great time living together as couple?

That depends, how far has your sarcastic attitude gotten you in this relationship so far? Doesn't sound like thats really working for you so maybe you should try something else.

I'd like it if my husband did that. You may have been giving her more before but I bet you never thanked her.
