Married for 3 years. Mid 30s.

Feel like DH is never around, even when he's here.

Today for example. He was at work, I'm at home as workplace is closed.

Anyway I'm at home around 5. He decides to pop into his parents on the way home, no biggie, but comes home at 7.15ish. He comes in, sits down for about ten minutes, gets some leftovers for his dinner (I had already eaten). The dumps his plate on the kitchen side, complete with Mars bar wrapper and then announces he's having a shower. That was at about 8.

Haven't seen him since Confused

Is it every night?

Sounds like a housemate would be better company, OP. I would actually rather be single than in a relationship like that.

Do you not like Rick & Morty? Why can't he stream it to the TV and you watch it together? Definitely talk to him about it. It's not chasing - you're married! The powergames should be over (and should never have existed ideally). He's meant to like your company and if he doesn't and that isn't working for you, better to have it out now and separate for real. Much lonelier feeling like this when you're living together.

I just spent 6 weeks of this with dp

It was torture, he'd come home, sit and stare into the computer, eat dinner and not speak to me, nothing,

I eventually cracked and asked what the hell was going on, told him I felt so alone when he was here and he said he was stressed, but slowly he's changed it back around, I know how hard it is, I was literally ready to leave because I found it so hard, I hope you sort it

I think people are being a bit harsh on the OP. She only mentioned the parents visit and shower etc to say about the time he eventually got in etc. To go for a shower at 8 and you still haven't seen him at 10, I would say is avoidance if this is a regular thing. What is he doing? Why don't you go and ask him or go to find him OP?
