[quote=Anonymous]My DH got incredibly crabby and lazy around 42. He had always been a check the box kind of person, and my theory is that he never developed any sort of internal monologue or goals for himself beyond what he thought he was supposed to do. So now he has a kid, family, wife, nice house, vacation house, and job title he always wanted, but he feels empty because he doesn’t have a sense of his true values. I think he feels trapped by us and a sense of being unfulfilled, but because he can’t look inward he blames me/kids/family obligations/dog for how he feels. You can’t call someone like this out on it because they just lash out, in my experience. I think that my DH could have a come to Jesus moment and realize that his empty soul is the problem, not us or his job, or he’ll just keep using us as his punching bag. He won’t walk away from us because I think deep down he knows he’d be left with just himself and that he’s the problem.[/quote]
