writes: I have been with my husband for 6 years and we have generally had a happy marriage. Last night he told me he doesn't love me anymore and is in love with one of our mutual friends. He has agreed to try some counselling but says he can't continue our marriage if he doesn't love me and can't ever see his feelings changing for this other woman. How can I win back my husband and make him fall in love with me again? Reply to this Question

@ Anonymous post: I am where you are currently and let me say that staying takes guts trust me, there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about the events that took place. Ask yourself this: Do you TRUST him enough NOT to leave him? If your answer is no then my friend it's time to walk away. If yes then forgive him simple as that.

Next, love is not a tamable feeling, we as humans are drawn to our desires, though often infatuation is mistaken for love. I stand firm in the belief that in life we are given but one chance to live. With that said, as much as it may pain you I would let him go, as there is nothing in life that will hurt more than yearning for what one cannot possess. I would simply suggest take your time and move forward, as he seems to be doing. Why be held back in despair and anguish for the choices another has made? I wish you the best of luck in life

good luck. it is not easy avenue... but be strong...and positive. walk straight and keep your chin up.

good beats bad. conscience is the only enemy that he'll be dealing with. Do whatever u think is best for your family, show him ur affection to ur family (children), serve them with sincerity..be a real mother and a loyal wife at all times. Prayers too can make miracles..

He feels anger when he sees u because of the thought that u are the hindrance of what he enjoys doing right now. I still believe that doing good things at all times beats bad deeds. Prayers too can do miracles. Do whatever u think is best and will do good for your family. He will notice it and he'll deal with his conscience.

You must be feeling so hurt after what your husband has told you. I agree with Irish, find out ways of raising your self esteem do what ever it takes. Get strong, get independant. If your husband wants to win YOU back after dropping that bomb then make HIM grovel and work hard for it.

reader, anonymous, writes (8 September 2005): The best solution I can see here, might be for YOU to become strong and self-assured enough, so that you no longer need him. Becoming a strong, confident woman is not a means to winning back an unfaithful husband, but it is a case of winning back your own self-respect, your pride and dignity that he took with him, when he went to her. As long as your husband feels that any decision about where he wants to be, who he wants to be with is up to only him, he will feel free to chose whatever option he wants, irregardless of how much pain he causes you. But if he feels that your door is closing to him, he just might realize that he doesn't want that door to close. He's sitting in the catbird's seat here and he's enjoying every second of it, isn't he? Think about this. If he gets this woman "out of his system" and he comes back to you who says he won't get another one "in his system" and he leave you again, knowing that you still want him back. And this could keep going on and on, for years to come. You need to get tough and never tolerate his infidelity, ever again. Set the groundrules and lay out the boundries here, girl.
You however need to be strong and clear about what you want your life to be and stick to those ground rules, with him or without him. Don't waver. If you become strong and clear in yourself, you will win whether he returns or not. I would suggest that you find yourself a good counselor to support you in your own inner journey. Start living today and wash this man out of your hair, girl. Do what it takes.
You might really surprise yourself because when you are strong enough to no longer need him, you might not want him back, anyways. Amazing what confidence, self-esteem and inner pride does for a woman. So rather than trying to win him back, take all the energy you could waste on this man and work hard to stop loving him and learn to love yourself, fully and unconditionally. And don't ever forget...for even a day...how very special you are. You take of yourself, hun and get strong and seek happiness...you truely deserve it
Hugs,
Irish
