[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait, what makes you think he's not growing? That's very weird. He's growing in his own way.

I think you need to accept this as fundamental to him and not say rude and hurtful things like that. Do you want him to accept you as you are, and not say "When will my wife stop running around doing all kinds of pointless exhausting things, so that we can spend time at home together"?[/quote]

Growing to me is gaining insight and new ways to look at the world and yourself. I try to grow by volunteering and "travelling local." I've picked up a foreign language in the last few years and spend time visiting and learning about the country where the language is spoken.  I work with a not for profit near to my heart.

He doesn't think what I do is pointless or exhausting for me.  He has no interest in joining groups or volunteering, and doesn't really like talking as recreation. He's content with me reading on the sofa while he watches TV or surfs the internet.[/quote]
