[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it’s any consolation I am a wife who has been staying out late at friends’ places (still coming home, but like 3a) and I am not having an affair. It’s been a coping mechanism for covid + a lack of emotional connection from my DH for nearly a year. After bringing it up multiple times I gave up and have been seeking emotional connection with my friends group (distanced on patios).

How has your connection between one another been recently OP? [/quote]

Are you texting and responding to your spouse during these nights out?

This is a bad sign in a marriage.  I can’t imagine my spouse and I hanging out with friends without each other until 3am.

We always were out in groups, couples etc when we were out that late- never alone.

You need to work on your marriage pronto.

Get into therapy, communicate...it gets worse the longer you don’t address it.[/quote]
He has never really texted me during these outings. If he did I’d respond, though I wouldn’t be checking my phone constantly either. He doesn’t want to be there (prefers to go to bed early and keep to himself at home) and I can’t just sit around my house all night every night while he goes to bed at 8:30.

I’ve brought it up many times and have suggested therapy multiple times which he does not want to do. He thinks we are fine just different and have different routines. I agree it’s a bad sign — a symptom of our issues and as I said, a coping mechanism to deal with those issues — but I’ve tried to make moves to resolve it, but I’m pushing up against a brick wall.

My original point was not that things are just peachy in OPs marriage, but that his DW could be acting this way without actually fooling around with someone else. [/quote]
