to want a better husband?

LucyLovesPedro · 05/12/2009 22:38

I work really hard, career wise, and in looking after my three beautiful boys.

My husband works part time and he has no ambition. There's zero sex life and I don't think I love him anymore.

Am I being selfish is wanting someone better? My boys are 10,11 and 13. I think they're too young to go through the trauma of their parents divorcing.

I don't mean to be fickle but the ambition and drive my husband first had was, amongst other things, what first attracted me to him.

I blame all of this on the the calibre of The Daily Telegraph readership.

Second the grass not always being greener and thinkin you should try harder to fix this marriage before looking for someone else... You once loved him you could again but just because dr's hav said he's grand doesnt mean he Isnt depressed ye need to talk ye prob need to go to a marriage counselor and ye need to get doing stuff together again not jus him playin his games and you doin the kids and house stuff... When did ye last go out on a 'date' or a walk or sumit?? It sometimes takes a lot of work to have a good marriage and love can come in waves... Think very hard weather alot of work to fix it is better then undoubtably alot of heartache and work if you decide you want a break...
