[quote=Anonymous]i am at my wits ends.    I have told him this….although I do not think he gets it.    We both work full time and have two wonderful children.    His job is more demanding then mine, so I deal with all things related to children and house upkeep as well.   That being said, my job can be demanding and timeline driven adding to my stress.   None the less, I am there for my kids and ensure I support them in the ways that I think they need.     I really need him to acknowledge this and show some appreciate for this effort.

We have grown apart over the past year or so.    I can't remember the last time we had sex or even a sensual hug or kiss.   At times he is very short with me…..I chalk this up to work stress, but I think there are other relationship issues tied in to this.   I don't think he is attracted to me any more….I have gained 20lbs or so and he is not pleased with this.   I think he would also prefer that I was not an introvert…..not sure I can change this.

I asked him tonight what can we do to make our relationship better…..his response…..umm I don't know.

I think his feeling is that we are "not that bad off", however I do believe that it is possible to be happier.   Just not sure that he is really willing to work on it.

Where do you take it from here?   I have thought of getting counseling for myself in addition to marriage counseling.    Any thoughts ideas?
