[quote=Anonymous]My husband is extremely introverted and does suffer from some social anxiety. For example, it takes extra effort on his part to make eye contact and to carry on a social conversation. He's a trooper, so he does do it when I need him to but I know it's hard for him so I don't ask him to do it often. I really don't think he would ever enjoy having to do this weekly. Maybe you could reconsider which social events are truly important for him to be there, and give him a free pass on some of the others. I know you said you are starting to resent him, but consider that he may already be resenting you too for all the pressure you are placing on him to socialize. It sounds to me like he is feeling very irritated at having to be at these events, and he may need a break. It may also help for him to seek some therapy so that he can better understand himself and his limits and communicate them to you in a better way. [/quote]
