HUSBAND IN A LOVELESS MARRIAGE [#17233]

December 9, 2021

QUESTION:

I am married for over 10 years and for several years already I’ve lost my entire desire to stay married.
I need love in my life, and because of this, I simply want a new wife. I want to feel that I have a wife who loves me, not a wife with an emotionally dry personality who can’t give me that feeling that I’m loved. All of my happiness in life has drained from me because of this. All the time I feel like I’m searching for my “other half”, and I don’t feel like my wife is that other half. My life isn’t good in general and in particular my marriage is not good, there’s marital discord, and perhaps that has to do with it. I can barely describe what I’ve been through until now and I don’t know where to begin and where to end. I just know that I want there to be love in my life – I want someone to love, and I want to receive love in return.
As much as I want to end my marriage and find a loving wife, I don’t have the heart to break up my family with little children, but on the other hand, I feel like I can’t go on anymore with my marriage and suffer like this. Where does my issue lay in, and what can be done in my situation?

ANSWER:

First, find “yourself”, and from there you will find a pure self-love. When you do so, afterwards it will be easier for you to let go of the need to receive love from outside of yourself. [Editor’s Note: refer to the class of “Fixing Your Water.020.The Desire For Love”]
