[quote=Anonymous]I think your husband is actually having a mid-life crisis whether or not he wants to admit it. He also sounds like a man living in a fantasy world who is in denial about many things in his life. And that is a very sad thing.

When there are problems in a relationship, seldom is just ONE person responsible. Usually the fault lies withing both parties involved to some degree. For your husband to put the blame entirely on you is a clear example of him living in a fantasy world where he is the perfect one. Another example of him living in a fantasy world is the fact that he thinks if he moves somewhere else, the grass will be much greener + he will meet his perfect "soul mate." His true one and only. The one he will spend the rest of his life with and walk into the sunset with.

Sorry, but Princess Charming doesn't even exist in Fairy Tales.

It doesn't sound like counseling is productive in your situation because honestly if one person is refusing to accept the advice and input of the therapist, then what good is it going to do? What I do suggest OP is that you continue seeking therapy for yourself on an individual basis to help you cope w/what you are going through in your marriage.

Since divorce is not an option for you, I really do not know what else to say.

By staying w/him it is obvious he cannot change on his own and therapy is not working on him, so the best you can do is continue therapy on your own. You cannot control another human being, but what you CAN control are your own actions, behaviors and decisions.

Good luck.[/quote]
