Hey cj, I just wonder if this is the "roller coaster" referred to by so many. It's like one day, he will say nothing mean, then the next he has to get a dig in. Maybe that's why I feel disconnected from him sometimes, like I can sit back and really look at him and wonder why the heck this all had to happen, and wish I could look deep inside him to see what he thinks about what he has done, and whether we will be able to put Humpty Dumpty together again, maybe not like before, but stronger.

I know what you mean. I was feeling like I wanted intimacy, and he would only snuggle, so when he wants intimacy, it makes me feel more connected to him. I also don't tell him I want more intimacy, because I don't want to push him away. I am not going to get resentful like he did with me, because of this, because I know he is tired from working, and maybe once or twice a week is all he can handle right now.
