My previous posts were in relation to the horrible comments my husband made about our sex life

  • I was a sack of potatoes
  • at least his ex got on top.

Our relationship always had the same issue. The amount of time he spent working. We have 3 beautiful children and have just come back from our first family holiday which was amazing.
Over the years I have told him that I'm really lonely in our marriage and would love for him to be home a little more or at come home at a reasonable time not the normal 07.30 -23.00 day.
It generally goes well for 2 weeks max but then back to the norm. He always puts people over us and will do things for others at the drop of a hat, where I'm left asking for months to get a small shelf hung.
The holiday was lovely and I really enjoyed our time together. So wen we got back I asked him to cut his hours and enjoy our family. Well he lost the head. He refused to give up his passion of working a 2nd job in his garage. We don't need him to work 2 jobs. He said I was controlling him and tryibgbto stop him seeing his parents (garage is located in there yard).
It couldn't be further from the truth. I would never do that.😔 he told me.he is happy, I'm the 1 that's not so I could find some1 else but he's not changing. On hols my daughter made a comment that cut really deep, her dad said we did do something together as we don't spend time together, her response was sure I don't no wat ur saying u don't want to spend time with her either.
I was broken. We are in seperate rooms now.

Feeling lost. I've avoided him since our argument the other nite, until last nite he came into the room and I could tell he was feeling things by the sound of his voice.
I try so hard to spend time and always willing but I dunno maybe it is me.😔

Please don’t put up with this, it is no life for you x

RantyAnty · 23/06/2019 12:39

I don't understand why you are still with him? He's terrible.

Har23 · 23/06/2019 12:41

It's only when you see things written down that I actually see that yes he is horrible. But I know this, the loss will be his....

You deserve to be treated so much better than this.

LemonTT · 23/06/2019 13:23

OP

It’s not on the way he behaved. But I don’t understand saying you love him if you don’t. What were you feeling and trying to achieve. Because you can’t live separate lives if you love him or conversely hate him

He's having his cake and eating it isn't he? Working, doing a hobby and not having to be involved in the running of the house or raising of his children. He then gets to dip in and out of that when he fancies e.g. going on nice holidays.
YOu are not equals in this relationship.

Har23 · 23/06/2019 13:51

@LemonTT I do love him. I'm just completely worn out trying my best with him for years. I've realised that I do love him but he's not willing to change. I can't live my life like this. It's completely one sided. I've tried my hardest to bring him closer to us but to no avail. Life lives me not me living life.
I don't want to be with him anymore even tho I love him.

I was thinking that too @AnyFucker.
Sorry op I think you need to start doing a bit of investigation....

Har23 · 23/06/2019 14:27
