[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did you end up being the social life manager for your family? That's probably part of the issue. This is like households where the wife becomes the cleaning directory and her husband becomes her "helper." Over time, he starts acting like an employee who only does something with he is told, instead of feeling like he has skin in the game.

Does he have anything healthwise going on? Maybe something that causes him to be irritable. Hyperacusis? This can be social functions painful. Also, things like depression, anxiety, etc.[/quote]

OP here. I think the social thing is just my nature. Most women I know fill that tole within their families, and it comes more naturally to me. I actually love for him to do stuff with the guys alone (he never plans of course, but is still included a lot of the time), so it's not like I'm always even involved.

I've actually thought about the whole mental health situation, but nothing else in his life indicates that at all...[/quote]

Maybe he is feeling like he doesn't have enough "me time." Does he have hobbies that he general works on alone? Maybe you can try to arrange things so he still has a little bit of time to geek out.[/quote]
