[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, I love these ideas, but DH won't go for them.  He'd never give up his devices for a day.  I asked this morning and he simply ignored me.  I've asked so many times I guess he just figures he doesn't need to refuse anymore, his answer should be obvious by now.

I guess I am as bad sometimes on my phone.  My anonymous friends here are my only way of being connected to something some days.  I guess I should out this down and go for a bike ride.  Or a walk.  But I'm so depressed all I do is state at the ceiling if not my phone.[/quote]

I don't know what to suggest about your husband (mine is sort of similar) but YOU will feel better if you unplug once in awhile yourself, and cuddle up with a (physical copy of) a good book or do something else you like.  I find the incredible amounts of time I spend on phone/computer make me depressed.

But most of your post illustrates the great paradox of motherhood, as far as I'm concerned:  frequently lonely but NEVER alone![/quote]

When my kids were younger. that was the worst time in my married life. We are at a really good place now. Both of us in our 40s - great sex life, a good friendship, respect, family. I look at young parents and I feel really sorry because even though they have youth on their side, they are too miserable to enjoy it. I am very grateful that we stuck it out.

Advice to young parents - take care of each others sexual needs and fake the love if need be. The love will come back again. You  will fall in and out of love countless times in your marriage Its just that when you become older you learn to go with the flow.
