When’s a marriage not a marriage?
      03/20/10 02:17 AM

My wife of ten years stopped sleeping with me without explanation. It wasn’t an overnight surprise though. She gradually stopped coming to our bed over a three month period. I’m a pretty clean guy and I do snore, but nothing (to my knowledge), has changed in the past 5 years. At first I was just frustrated because our already limited sex life (I was only lucky about once or twice a month anyway) is now over.
It gets worse. She has basically moved in with our eight year old son. I’ve always had issues with her process for putting him to bed. She’s always laid down with him until he’d fall asleep. Then she would eventually put on her pajamas and come to bed.
Her pattern changed to putting on her pajamas first and then putting him in bed. Eventually she stopped coming to our bed. Unfortunately, our son now loves having her there in the bed. I got tired of getting up at 2:00 a.m. to wake her up and convince her to come to. The minute she moves, he wakes up too.
My wife doesn’t work (by her choice), but is going to bed at 8:45 p.m. and sleeping with my son (in his bed), until 7:30 the next morning. It’s hard to even talk to her about it because her waking hours mirror our son’s. It’s also obvious that she doesn’t want to discuss it. Her only response is that he needs her.
This has been going on for six months now. She has also clearly a change in her tone to me. I’m not to touch her or kiss her (not that I’ve been inclined anyway). I have not committed any marriage violations nor has she accused me of any. I am completely clueless as to what’s going on and I’m frustrated by the silent treatment. Now that she’s turned down my request for counseling, I’m ready to ask for a legal separation.
