[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless there’s alcohol or were watching a sport that doesn’t require speaking with me, he finds every excuse in the book to reject any ideas for things we can do together. Get a babysitter and go away for a night? No, that’s boring. Go on a double date? No, not interested. Or he’ll want to make it a kid-centric thing.

I’m in my mid40s and don’t think I can tolerate this fir the rest of my life. This has been going on for a few years. I know, we should try therapy but he s not one for that and if I have to drag him into to therapy to convince him to go to dinner with me, as far as I’m concerned we’re done. We have kids but I don’t want to be miserable missing out on a fulfilling relationship. Going to dinner and enjoying someone’s company should not be like climbing a mountain. Life is short. Thus us not easy to think about but it’s becoming very obvious. At times I do wonder if maybe we have little in common at this point. [/quote]

Have you told him exactly what you said in your second paragraph? If not, you should.[/quote]

I’ve been working up to it. I’ve tried the diplomatic approach but it’s not working. Everything can’t just be about the kids. I’ve noticed over the last few years that he really doesn't have much interest in me as a person and that’s the root of the lack of interest in date nights.

FYI I haven’t gained weight or changed my appearance. In fact I think I’m probably at my best at this point and weigh less and take better care of myself than I did in my 30s. [/quote]
