Had a huge row with dh last night over him cleaning out the cat litter box. I just snapped at him, and he feels I over-reacted, but it's his laziness that bothers me more - and this was what the arguement was really about. I'm currently a SAHM and keep the house clean; kids happy; and I always make him nice food. This week though, I have been sick and struggling to do anything really. Yet, he comes home from work and doesn't even cook tea!!! He just assumes I will do everything. He can't even manage to make a cup of tea, without trying to get me to do it!!!

This just seems to be something else to add to the long list of what is wrong, and this morning I told dh I wanted to seperate!!

He never tries to sort an arguement out or try and make me feel better. I have complained so many times about how I don't feel he loves me anymore. He says he does, but never shows me in any way that this is true. Our sex life is a joke, really. There is no romance or passion between us, so sex is very mundane really - and very rarely enjoyable!! We actually went out at the weekend with some friends, and one of his friends came on to me all night. Dh didn't seem to notice - and wasn't too interested when I told him the next day - but I actually enjoyed it. I liked having someone treat me special.

He won't go for counselling for our relationship and certainly wont discuss our sex life in front of a stranger.

Is there any way we can put passion and romance back in our relationship - or is it too late??? I have felt like there hasn't been passion for a few years now. I'm only 28 and I don't think I like the thought of never feeling romance or passion againSad

Sorry this is long and probably mixed up - I'm just feeling mixed up today!!!

I think MN should have a quote of the week... perhaps it should be on a particular thread and run by the Mners themselves.. and I think this week's should be..

"Men are like dogs.. you have to tell them what to do.." By Custardo. That is SO true. I usually hate generalisation.. and am not a feminist or sexist.. but I didn't get to the grand old age of 34 without learning that, the majority of the time, (and for the majority or men..), Custardo has SO hit the nail on the head in delightfully few words. (Hub2Dee on here appears to be an exception.. he is either very in touch with his feminine side... which is great and something for which I respect him greatly... or else he is a female troll.. and Dee and the kids are made up.. Wink Grin)

Men (generally) ARE like dogs.. they DO need telling how their actions make us feel!! WHY is this?? Its not to do with intelligence.. or lack of it.. it's something else entirely... it's the Mars and Venus thing for sure.. but can they ever learn.. and change???

I hope things inprove for both roses and shiny....
