Have you been evaluated by your physician for depression? Keep in mind that in some men, depression/anxiety can also manifest as anger issues.
I will be praying for you. ETA: Christian love is not how you feel. Feeling and emotions come and go. That is a normal marriage. Love is how you act toward the person. The feeling will follow the actions. "There is no greater love than to lay down one's life for one's friends." That is what you are called to. The advice to sit down with a counselor is an excellent one - a pro-marriage, Christian counselor - that's very important. You can even do counseling over the phone. Even if your wife won't do it, you do it alone. If she starts to see a change in you, she may eventually join in. |

Prayers sent for you and her. If there are problems then talking about them is best as you probably already know. Talking with a Christian marriage counselor helps (I know this first hand due to what my wife has been put through by me). It helps due to the fact that he/she can bridge the conversation between you and your wife and help both see why we are different in how we deal with issues while keeping it "safe" for both to talk.
