I feel like I'm at a massive crossroads in my life. My marriage hasn't been happy for some time and we are both in counselling but I'm starting to realise that me and DH actually have nothing in common apart from the kids. I think this is the core of our issues. He is very highly intelligent and I often don't even understand the words he uses. It's exhausting. I'm losing my self confidence and self esteem and feel that he needs to be with somebody more on his wavelength. I daily feel a sense of condescension from him and I'm guessing it's because I simply don't have the brain capacity to relate to him. I love simple things like good food and dancing and good laughs but he isn't really interested in the things I am. Normal life is too boring for him. I noticed today that although I followed him on twitter months ago, he hasn't followed me back. The people he's followed are all "like him" including funky, trendy, pink haired type skinny girls with interesting names and lives. It makes me feel crap to be honest and I'm wondering if I should walk away to preserve my self esteem. Any advice gratefully received.
