HELP! MY WIFE IS PUSHING ME OUT!
Alex and his wife Tammy were high school ‘sweethearts’ who got married about ten years ago. Today their marriage is blessed with two adorable kids and they have a business that is doing fine despite the recession.
Over the years their marriage has been doing well because of their Christian background, but for some time now Alex has been having a lot of dissatisfaction with their relationship. And why is this so?
Alex is not fulfilled sexually… They have not been making love regularly for quite some time because Tammy mostly complains of not feeling up to it (When she is not too busy with her job or having to cope with the children’s demands, she is just too stressed up with much stuff to get intimate with her husband….)
Although Alex loves his wife and family dearly and has been bearing well under the circumstances, but he is not satisfied with the short tryst he gets once a while with his wife (when he is ‘lucky’ he gets to play with Tammy once a month). She is just not available and even when she is, he can hardly get all her attention. And his suggestions at improving their love life has not yielded fruit except empty promises, quarrels and greater frustrations…At times Tammy accuses him of being insensitive and misunderstanding her…”Alex, we are no longer as young as we used to, and besides we have a lot of responsibilities now…Pleeaaassse I am very tired and sleepy but you can do whatever you want but not tonight…”
Alex is just confused….“God…what is wrong with my wife, my marriage and our lives. I am doing everything possible to see that my marriage succeeds, but it is not working. What should I do? In whom do I confide? Oh God, please help me!
To compound Alex’s problems are all the attention he gets from the opposite sex, especially Sandra, the young receptionist at work who has been trying to flirt with him. He has had to fight off suggestions by his colleagues to take up her sexual advances… Now he is having a continual battle fighting off the thoughts of Sandra’s sexual attentions…
As a Christian, he knows it is wrong to have any extra marital affair but the situation at home is disheartening and pushing him to the edge…
“For how much longer can I cope…What should I do?”
(Friends, please counsel Alex and Tammy on what he should do to overcome the challenges in their marriage)
