[quote=Anonymous]We all have a responsibility and choice in how we approach life. Sitting around and feeling sad because you are “lonely” isn’t going to improve anyone’s life. Your husband works long hours. That’s just a fact - military spouses and many others gave this, too. Figure out what you want your life to look like and make it happen. It’s not your spouse’s job to fulfill every need. My spouse needed to commute internationally for 2 years and traveled for 2-3 weeks at a time. Was it traditional? Not - but the kids and I made the best and we had a very full life when he was gone. And we enjoyed it immensely when he was home. Complaining about it would have nothing to make the situation better. OP, you should really think about what is important to you and make it happen (hobbies, travel, volunteer, book club, exercise communities, faith communities, etc.). Sitting around being resentful of your spouse literally doesn’t do anything to make the situation better. [/quote]
