[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The ADD/OCD stuff is really a sideshow. He seems to be unable to recognize emotional needs in his wife and has trouble with intimacy and showing affection.

I personally have some ADD/OCD stuff, but I am also affectionate and emotionally available to my wife. I would feel terribly guilty if I constantly rejected her sexual advances and attempts at being friendly toward me.

Based on your description, It really sounds like autism/aspergers to me. I doubt he is gay because this seems to encompass your entire relationship, not just sex. If he was just gay, I'm sure he'd still be capable of [b]having a conversation and shared activities.[/b] It's hard to understand. But he really seems to be in his own world. No offense to people with autism, but he truly sounds like he lacks personal insight and is genuinely afflicted by some kind of mental illness.

Is he taking any medication? Any lifestyle changes that correlate with changes in his personality? You mentioned that his last marriage failed over this very issue. That does not auger well for your situation unfortunately.[/quote]

but he is having conversations and shared activities - just not with OP. per OP, he is posting on forums related to the post casts he is listening to all day long. OP"s husband clearly has this obsession/addiction/hobby that he has found a way of pursuing relentlessly while appearing to be a part of family.[/quote]
