Feel like going away on my own tonight

In the big scheme..it is a petty issue
Feel I am drifting apart from dh. He is working really long hours and has no real interest in me. I feel he is taking me for granted. I leave dinner ready for h everyday and do everything with DC's. I am also working full time. So this morning he got up early (as usual) and I got up and he mocked that I am always asleep. Last weekend we were meant to go put for the day and he ended up going to mil as hadn't seen him and I am just fed up

Not surprised you're fed up. I don't have DC, but I was with someone for many years who worked most of the time, in fact, I think it was his hobbie. So, I can relate to that aspect. Any time we did actually spend together, I always got the feeling he'd rather be elsewhere anyway. You deserve some down time. I hope you can sort it out with DH.

I think the spark has gone and we don't do anything together so we are pulling apart _- he doesn't see it

But you see it. It sounds like you have been lost to your roles as parents.

You either chuck him
have an affair
do nothing
go away together or do something together....

What you are doing sounds tough. Do you still fancy him?

My 121 with DH is fraught. We often work apart and facetime but find it easy even there to make comments about each other. We care about DD but that is only connection we seem to have. I am 43 and just girl next door in looks but I try to look nice and be nice. FFS its over 8 months since we DTD and I cry wondering what am doing wrong. I a so rooting for you OP.

I love him - don't really fancy him as in 'or here comes' I just think 'oh, he will want dinner ' if that makes sense

He is very reserved and quiet and it is hosting personality - but I went out with lad type personalities and they bored me - dh is intelligent and kind.

I don't want to end things or have an affair but I want to see scream that my life is over. Couldn't say that in real life.

I have drifted apart from friends - so feel lonely. Not blaming dh entirely

Is just his (didn't mean to write hosting)

Everything is 'fine' with him - he doesn't get annoyed or excited about anything. Likes programmes about antiques. When Sunday comes he thinks about going to visit his parents or diy. I am bored shitless. Absolutely shitless.

Can relate. DH is kind but shows me no affection. I dont want to cheat or split but is it unreasonable to expect him to want to be sexual with me even if once a month? I just don't feel like am a real woman.
