I won't be able to post much so apologies if there is a long delay in replies.
And I have name changed for this and don't want to give too much away.
DH's mother walked out and moved away (about 2 hours drive) shortly before he was a teenager. His Dad is a practical man and took good care of them, but they don't seem to have much of an emotional connection.
We have been having some problems and I don't really want to go into details but he feels that his eventful childhood has influenced the way he feels about me now we have children.
Does anyone have any idea where we go from here? I don't think he would be willing to talk to a counsellor as he saw one when he was younger and didn't find it very useful.
Are there any books that deal with this issue?
