She is fron Her work night shift. i change my greetings instead of regular mahal.. i use words like beautiful lady..
I kissed her this morning thinking it was a good greeting it blew up in my face she's more mad at me now than she was from the beginning I don't know what to do I'm so scared of rejection losing my daughter and becoming homeless as she owns the house
vandag het ek my kinders vir die eerste keer gesien in 2 weke. ek het diw 40 day challange begin omdat rk my huwelik wil red en dat ek nie my huis gesin wil viloor nie... my vrou is so yskoud teenoor my ek sukel hard ek weet net God kan ons red
my wife is aaking me to stay away frkm my family. how should i handle this. i feel shes intimidated by them
this one is extremely tough because last night when he did come home he said he wants out of this marriage. It hurt so much to hear him say that . I don't know what to do
i am going to try my best today to be a godly wife. i pray this dare helps. for me its more than just a dare its a life style change that i want. i have really messed up my marriage.
my husband just came home and said he met a pastor at work. he opened up to him PLEASE pray God wirks through this pastor both in my husband's life and our marriage
yesterday was the first time we talked in a week. not about anything. but he didnt push me away. i offered to go away so i didnt bother him. he let me stay! im hoping today goes well to. im praying and trusting God please pray
we just had a very short conversation. not about anything really but no arguing πππ
I fear that I might be losing her. Please pray for me. I believe there is power in numbers. Im trying to save what I might have ruined
Day 9: Today will be a true challenge . . . we're not in agreement on a situation. He's being overly practical, and my emotions are way ahead of my practicality. A loving, enthusiastic greeting is the last thing on my mind. Ha!
Some of these are really hard. My wife and I are separated, we don't talk because of my past hurtful choices/actions. We're in different states thousands of miles apart (physically & emotionally). I'm discouraged and asking, what's the point?
Some of this is so hard to do since we are separated. She won't really talk to me and we're currently in different state, thousands of miles apart (physical and emotionally). It's hard not to get discouraged and wonder, what's the point?
again how do u do day 9 if she wont speak to you and she has changed her number i want to belive but its so hard to see right now please tell.me God knows my jeart i will do anything to win my wife back
I've been so focused on problems and not on Providence. although it seems like everything in my life is falling apart I'm on day 9 please pray for us in every way you feel led, in Yashua's name.
When these have you ask your spouse what you can do for them, or when it has me to do something out of love, how do i succeed in that when my spouse is so independent that he wont allow me to do anything? I need guidence on this.
I've tried recently to send out a text to tell her how I feel about her but it blew up in my face. LORD, help me to have courageous love like you do.
How to give a bread to one who throws stones at you.By this i see my crimes towords God. Lord i need your to help me with this, because i can't do it by my self.
how do u do this if she does not want to see u
today i decided to take my wife to barnes and noble to pick out a leather journal of our choice. she enjoyed the away time from the babies and she was every excited to be able to write down her daily feelings and what not in her own book.
Came home from work and smiled and tried to give her a hug but would let me and told her I was glad to see her. Just said ok with no emotion at all. No changes at all the rest of the night only disappointment when she looks st me.
I don't know what to do. I told her she looks good this morning and she told me to go back to sleep and I try to touch or wrap my arms around her she said no
its over. she doesn't want to be with me. she wants to be with anyone else but me. its obvious. she left the man she left me for and even though she said we can try to work it out shes now talking to one of her old ex's. what am i even trying for.
Why can't I post anything, there is always something went wrong
How do I carry on loving someone that doesn't love me after 25 years of marriage. He stopped loving me because of lack of intimacy caused by cancer meds
This is so hard, he stopped loving me due to lack of intimacy which was due to cancer meds which I took. How does a man stop loving your wife of 25 years?
I wish I could kiss and hug him, but so scared of the rejection and after the fight today I don't know what to do tomorrow
This is going to be hard, especially after today's fight, I told me over and over he doesn't love me and we have been married for 25 years. I just want to hug and kiss him but am so scared of the the rejection
This is not going to be easy, especially after the fight today, I want to hug and kiss him, but I'm so scared of the rejection
At this point I want to find ways to delete my husband completely out of my life. This marriage is too stressful for me and I keep falling apart. We are separated and I can't keep forcing myself on someone who does care about me.
I thank God for this dare And God is so good to me .
I don't know how to do this as well as some of the other steps. My wife and I are separated, rarely talk and don't see each other. Reading some of these steps, I get discouraged as I can't follow them as they are intended.
My heart into a million pieces my kids devastated my husband finally said he was moving out to be with the other woman and her 2 kids. God we need you please heal our broken hearts...

This is tough, when you don't feel any love from your spouse, feels like giving up myself. π’ God pls help me!
it's really hard to be enthusiastic when he can be so hurtful. not interested.
My husband told me with a fight he doesn't love me no more
I kissed him SO long and hard. It felt amazing. it felt real! my husband has been receiving this challenge SO well. and God is changing MY heart too.
we are still married but she living at a close friend's house with husband and kids and her kid I mean I'm doing it just don't know if I can keep doing this
this is hard we are not living together and I get nothing but hate from her even though I'm doing everything she has always wanted me to do it's like I'm fighting a losing battle
While my wife and I are in this strange spot in our relationship we are still very cordial and friendly with each other. Even though we aren't being intimate with each other we have developed a unique way to greet and acknowledge each other.
i need to try this one again laterπ
any Ideas ? I know whatever I do, I need to do it with out expectations of a certain reaction.
I'm on 49 n still going
This one is going to be a little awkward for me. I've always wanted to greet him in a special way but just felt weird about it. Hopefully it's met with happiness. Will update later.
come on dare I am doing this
Have done today's challenge, no reaction. she ignored me like a stop street. only busy on her phone with social media...I'm trying hard and shenis pushing me a way without knowing it

won't happen again because she left me
Greeted with a smile and asked how her day was. Typical greeting and afraid to try anything more than that for fear of rejection.
this one may a little hard today. we are not living with each other right now. I have been sending good morning text everyday. she hasn't spoke to me in a few days though. need prayers. feeling lost
We are supposed to be doing this together, but he has doesn't done anything. We still struggling with being alone.
no matter what I say to him its wrong. Im broken and Feel like a failure. All i do is pray amd cry. I give up at this point.
This is so difficult because it's not reciprocated π
I leave for work before the family is up. This morning though, she woke me up to read an email. The email reminded her of my infidelity. We were on the road to healing and I now feel like that has been undone. This challenge seems impossible today.
I dont know where it went wrong.... he told me today he's leaving... he's to a breaking point and needs to be on his own... I dont know what to today
Done
this may be my last day doing this dare. She keeps reminding me that she wants a divorce and planning on filing and wants me to start looking for a place to move.
This was a failure today. Im hitting a brick wall. She goes to work early while everyone is still sleep, unable to greet her this morning. sent a text and just reminded that she's still filing papers.
Gave a longer and more enthusiastic hug and kiss. Same hesitant response from him. Sigh...I'll keep trying.
I've been rejected numerous time since I've started this journey, today is quite challenging and I pray to God before I tell her how proud I am to her, she gave me sarcastic smile then after that I want divorce.
I love you baby cakes we can do this !! T -n- A
My husband continues to ignore everything I do for him. He also continues to reject me and my actions everytime. I have to ask him in order to get some sort of response. it's getting hard, to constantly be rejected and ignored.
So this morning I took her a coffee and Dr Pepper. Had yo leave it with security though. then texted her good morning my love. my nerves are shot. She wants a divorce but paid on my credit card.
I asked God to fill my heart today so I may pour his love out on my wife. I want her to see in my eyes that I love her and also excited to see her.
this is hard today considering iv been up 24 hours and can't wait to sleep when he gets home.
Working on happy, enthusiastic greetings is something I've struggled with in the past. This is going to change now!
