[quote=Anonymous]I am your DH (although I am a woman). I hate listening to people complain/vent…it is like nails on a chalkboard. What’s the point?? Talking out solutions - yes, I’m here for that. Just venting, getting things off your chest? Ugh, I struggle with listening to that. 
You are doing it in this thread - venting about your DH, lack of friends, how you shouldn’t have to see a therapist or change…seems like you may vent a lot, maybe more than you realize. 
Try a therapist - it’s like a free pass to vent for an hr about whatever you want! And who knows, if you get some of it out at the therapists office, maybe that will make DH more receptive.
I do let my DH vent, but I give him a time frame. Like you can complain about work/your boss/family/whatever while we go on this walk, & then when we get home, time to let it go & make dinner & talk about other topics. So maybe you could ask DH, hey, I need to vent (no suggestions/fixes needed) for 10 mins, then let’s go do whatever & have a good night. [/quote]
