Dear Happy Cow
My wife and I are struggling.
"Lisa" has stopped speaking to me. When I ask her why, or talk to her about what is going on, she ignores me. She has moved into another bedroom and wants very little to do with me. We don't talk, spend time together or have sex. There is no warmth or friendship at present and I am at a loss as to what to do. I have no reason to believe she is cheating, and I am certainly not cheating on her.
We are raising my son and daughter from a previous marriage and sometimes I wonder if this is what is bugging her. We have raised our children together since they were very young as their biological mother has not been on the scene for some time. As far as I know, we have all been really happy together. The kids love Lisa and she loves them. She is their mother in the real sense of the word. I am very much in love with my wife, and I can't figure this out.
Can people just fall out of love?
Ben, Norfolk
