My marriage isn't a bad one at all. Weve been together 13yrs. Married 8. And have 2dc.
All good however for last 6 months, I've just been questioning things, not out loud, but just feel fed up with us, and often find myself thinking I would be happier on my own. I prefer my own space.
He hasn't done anything wrong, he's an excellent dad, he doesn't drink, he's respectful, loving towards me.
However bad points are that he's very needy, ungrateful (I do everything without thanks), we don't laugh anymore, sex is a chore, he's abit stupid (nothing new but he's lazy with it now and just expects me to sort out finances/house admin/homework). He's so ducking moody, he's in a bad mood he makes the whole house feel uncomfortable. He's no problem shouting and rowing in front of kids where I won't allow this and either take myself or them out of the situation.
I'm self employed, run the house, kids are all for me so that takes up my energy straight after school, plus I am struggling at the moment with PTSD after an a serious event, feel like I've got game face on all day for work and kids. Then when they've gone to bed I do become abit of an introvert.
He's not coping well with this, he's become distant, only affection I get is when he wants sex, last night I refused so he flipped asked if I'd be seeing someone else, said of course not! Asked if I was happy, said I wasn't - that I don't feel close, we're always rowing and never talk anymore, things just get ignored and shoved under carpet. He's got upset and stormed out the house, I was tracking him, he was just driving around. Came back couple of hours later, and won't speak to me. I had the day off today asked him to come home and talk without kids here and he's just pretending I don't exist, ignoring messages, talking to children but not acknowledging me.
Don't think I'm asking anything just venting, feel like I've been punched in the chest all day, the being ignored is fucking awful, the wondering if this is the end.
