[quote=Anonymous]DH is a surgeon and I'm a SAHM for our two beautiful kids. DH works 7 days week and is work obsessed. He doesn't have any hobbies or interests outside of work. We make time to have hot sex almost every single day. I can't imagine ever being with anyone else. He seems very content with our life and this is what bothers me. I wish there was something I could do to get him to want to spend time with me outside of having sex. We don't eat any meals together and he says he's looking forward to when the kids go to college so we can have an empty home for more sexual play.
I feel angry with myself because I've enabled him to have this workaholic lifestyle. I feel foolish because I thought if I created a peaceful home life, he'd take an interest in a family life after we had kids. I was wrong. DH often says he appreciates what I do for our family, but he's essentially absent in my day-to-day life with the kids. He is very positive, encouraging, and kind to the kids when he does see them.
Please help me think of first steps I can take towards establishing a more balanced life. Has anyone had success with helping a driven spouse focus more on family time? I feel like I can't see this situation clearly because of how good our sex life is. Thank you.[/quote]
