DH and I have been together for 5 years married 3 with 1 DD. When we met i fell head over heals for him. I thought that I was the luckiest person in the world.
fast forward 5 years and i see my DH in a very different light. We haven't had sex in a couple of months and we don't talk about anything other than home and DD stuff. We bicker a lot.
he's a great dad, very hands on. he does the house work, he cooks. He has a big heart, he's kind, he very thoughtful and generous, he's fit and very handsome and he loves me very much.
But he has a quick temper and gets annoyed and the smallest things, he's moody, he cheated on me when dd was a few months old. (Our relationship hasn't been the same since)
He pesters me for sex all the time. Although he has backed of a bit recently as I've completely withdrawn form him as every cuddle turned into a come on. He's not interested in the what's happening in the world, he doesn't read anything, he not motivated and doesn't get enthusiastic about anything and can't seem to make a decision. Communication is poor between us.
It all feels stale. We are both unhappy. How do I fix this? Counseling is an obvious option but he doesn't speak very good english (which is one of my big issues as i feel he's had plenty of time to learn) i learnt his native language.
Where do I/we start?
