[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure what you issue is, but I find generally women don't support their husbands.  I've seen it multiple times and have experienced it.  I was going through depression and PTSD, therapist told her to spend time with me and not leave me alone.  What did she do?  Spent no time and looked for every opportunity to be out of the house or not with me.  I know it can be a downer but when you need someone to help you and the person you care for isn't there it certainly makes things more of a struggle.  Especially when the therapist tells you to make an effort to spend time with the person.

I have another military friend going through the same stuff, only his wife ended up cheating.

So essentially when the chips are down you're on your own as a guy, don't expect your wife to support you, unless there is something to gain for her.[/quote]

That really sucks & I'm so sorry you went through that & didn't have a supportive partner to help you through it, but you can't really think that ALL women are like this, can you?

It's not the gender that's the problem, it's the quality & characteristics of the person that you're married to.
I'm sure she was selfish, inconsiderate & self centered BEFORE you developed the depression & PTSD as well, you just didn't notice, because we rarely notice such negative characteristics in the "good times" of a relationship.  It's only when the chips are down that you really sit up & notice the caliber of partner you have & if they're the same person you thought they were.

Please don't think that all women are like this, because we're definitely not.  
I'm sure you can think of a number of women who aren't like your ex & are wonderful women (mom, sister, grandmother, maybe?).
Don't let one or two bad apples jade you against our whole race, because if you develop such a skewed outlook against us all, when the good ones do come along you're not going to be able to see the forest for the trees.
