Today we’re answering three reader-submitted questions:

  • Question #1 – How do you have an open and honest conversation with your wife while you’re separated?
  • Question #2 – If you were the one to have an affair, do you do anything different to try and get your wife back?
  • Question #3 – If your wife starts warming up to you AFTER you’ve stopped saying ‘I love you’, should you start trying to be affectionate again?

Since each of these questions were submitted by a Husband Help Haven subscriber, you’ll be hearing the real problems other men are having in their marriage, as well as the advice I give in each situation.


Stop guessing. Figure out where your separation actually stands.

If your wife wants out, wants space, is planning to move out, already moved out, or has filed for divorce — the right next step is different in each stage.

I put together a free Separation Roadmap to help you identify where you are, understand what is likely going on, and avoid the mistakes that make things worse.
