How Much Longer Until She Comes Back?

In this podcast episode, host Stephen Waldo tackles the question, "How much longer will my separation last?" He notes that, on average, separations typically last between 10 to 14 months, though research has its limitations. Waldo identifies seven key factors that can influence how long a separation lasts: the direction of the separation (whether it’s moving towards divorce or reconciliation), the wife's current living situation, the relationship between the husband's behavior and the wife's feelings, the level of trust, the husband's capacity to show love, the wife's comfort level, and any challenges she may be facing. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on these factors for better clarity about their own circumstances. The episode wraps up by highlighting that the length of time spent waiting is less critical than one’s willingness to wait—a theme that will be explored further in the next episode.
