[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm gonna go with a 6. There are financial issues, sex problems, lack of assertiveness on DH's part. On my part, I can be uptight and controlling at times. I have a bit of a chip on my shoulder and am trying to work through it in order to improve our marriage.

I was actually going to give our marriage a lower rating, but after reading some of the posts on here (that sound truly miserable) I reconsidered. DH has flaws but is kind, intelligent, considerate and a romantic at heart. I just wish he was more assertive and self-confident.[/quote]

It's rare to see this. You are actually able to see your flaws and admit to them, and admit to both your DH's flaws as well as his high points. I'm impressed!

It took our marriage completely imploding and a separation for me to get to that point. We are still working almost a year later and things are better. Basically right now we are focusing on being friends again and taking it from there. I have so much less anger now than a year ago. [/quote]

Thanks. I do recognize my contribution to our problems and realize no marriage is perfect. A bit of individual therapy has helped me with that. :wink: Still, changing established patterns in an established relationship is really difficult. I hope we both get closer to where we want to be in our marriages.[/quote]
