[quote=Anonymous]He is your husband, not your best girlfriend and not your therapist. I know a lot of DCUM will disagree with me, but I wonder hoe many of them are happily married and for how long. I've been happily married 12 years and I can tell you one of the "secrets" to a happy marriage is not expecting your spouse to be everyone to you. Maybe your husband is a rational, relatively unemotional person -- you probably married him for these reasons and appreciate them in other contexts. Recognize the way your husband shows his support and look for your pep talks elsewhere -- from a girlfriend, relative or therapist. He is not abusing you -- but you are being emotionally needy and trying to turn him into someone he is not and that will not end well. You will be perpetually disappointed and he will be resentful. Turn the dynamic around while you can.[/quote]
