writes:My first marriage ended after 17 years and it was heartbreaking. We had 5 children together and it took me a long time to get over it. Eventually I met my second wife and she was the girl of my dreams. We had 16 great years together, raising her children and my children under the same roof, and overcame seeming insurmountable odds and our realtion kept getting stronger all the time. She actually saved my life by researching where and how to best treat the kind of cancer I developed. She is such a beautiful person, both physically and mentally, and I have never loved anyone as much as her. She shocked me the other day when she told me she didn't feel the same way about me as she used to and wanted to separate, at least for a while. It's been rough on her lately because she is going through menopause and I think her estrogen levels are very very low, as she has also had a hysteroctomy. I have fallen into not being as understanding as I have been in the past, and I know that. She did make a doctor's appointment to have her estrogen levels checked, which she alread know are low. I guess my question would be, if she gets her estrogen level to where is should be, is there any chance she will be more sympathetic towards me than she is now. I want to save this marriage so badly and I won't be able to handle it if it doesn't work out. Thank you for listening

 Maybe do what she did but in reverse, research this on the net. Find out how her eostrogen levels are affecting her and making her feel. Talk to her, tell her how you feel,but don't pressure, tell her she can have all the time in the world and actually DO let her have all the time in the world, sounds like she's going through a tough time and needs to cope in her own way.
