A difficult topic.
I love my hubby, always have. We married when I was a teenager. My first ineverything. We have a beautiful daughter - a healthy moody teen. Here is the thing, my hubby has always kept at arms length emotionally, never expresses his feelings. I have to second guess what he is thinking all the time. The biggest disappointment is that I have never felt that he actually loved me enough. Believe me I am in this relationship. Secondly, I am the main bread winner and always have been. I pay for everything right down to salt. He forgets my birthday, anniversary - we never do anything at all in the 20 years we have been together. Recently, he won't make love - we can go for 3 months without. I have tried talking, explaining, asking but he just says, he doesn't know how to make me happy. At times, I get no response at all.
So I have told him that, we both deserve people who will make us happy. He didn't even respond to this. Help, he won't consider therapy either. He is not a bad person but am tired of being the one who makes all the effort in the relationship. I just feel that I deserve to be in a relationship that is warm and loving.😢
