Whats the Score?

Well, to begin things with, I am married to a woman I truly love. Sounds perfect right? But you know, life does not really have happy endings after all. I thought our marriage is almost perfect... We are blessed with a beautiful daughter, we can buy material things that we like and we have a job overseas which can support the family we left back home. But all of these does not matter to me anymore, its seems that the only thing that matters in this world is for a person to be happy, happy with the person he loves, and what is even better is for that love to be reciprocated.

Right now, I am facing reality that she does NOT love me at all in a romantic way. We have been friends at first and i think this saved our marriage from the situation we have now. She has been struggling all these years that we have been together thinking that she did not do the right thing - marrying me. Now, she finally decided to do the right thing, first by telling me the truth and then doing something about it.

A lot, and i mean a LOT, has happened these past few months in my struggle to cope with the truth. Tears has been shed off, roads to nowhere has been travelled, and much explaining, justifying and compromising has been done. But what can i do... I have just proved now that I truly truly truly love her. Im making up for the times i have not been a husband to her, or the times i took her for granted.

We are together now because of our daughter, living in the same roof as a "family". I accepted that she can only treat me as a friend (...bestfriend that is) but i still treat her a my wife and better half.
