The plan was for me to get a good new job, move all our stuff to a new state, and get an apartment until a house could be found. The wife and 2 kids would follow. Now my wife is deciding she wants to stay with her mother indefinitely. The wife is having post-partem depression and is not easy to talk to or rationalize with, and I am not happy not having my family with me. I held up my end of the bargain. It is difficult working on the marriage from afar. I am having doubts about the marriage also. I have been paying for all the family's normal expenses and medical expenses still, yet my family is being extorted from me. This has been going on for 3 months and I am getting resentful and losing patience. I am wondering if I should be talking to a lawyer. I've been to marriage counseling, but that did not help much. I really want to keep my family together, but I don't know what to do. The love for my wife is dying because of this. I am not getting to see my newborn or my older child.

Thanks for the responses so far. The 1st two responses have crossed my mind many times, but I do want to try to save my marriage. Mrs Leiter, if I move back I will have no job, hence no way to feed my family or provide medical coverage. This is a bad situation as I am still paying a housenote (house is vacant), paying rent in a new city, paying for everyone and seeing noone. It really sucks.

Move back. Your wife needs your help and now is not the time to uproot your family.
