I really appreciate you taking the time to respond to my wailing and flailing.
I used to consider myself one of the most patient and easy going people that I knew, now I’m so wound up and neurotic that I’m having a hard time controlling my resentment. For years I’ve worked hard to give her support yet freedom to pursue her goals and interests. I was a positive husband. Now I’m losing it and I need her support. She doesn’t want to hear about it. Every time I get up the strength to deal with the pain it quickly subsides into depression and anxiety. I feel so trapped...
I’ve ordered Michelle’s book and hope it will help me from my side. My wife won’t read it, in fact she gets pissed even if I read anything about improving relationships or sex. So I’ll have to read it in secret and keep all the knowledge to myself. If she were the one to initiate an effort to improve things I would climb mountains to make it happen.
In spite of my venting here on this site, I’m not angry around her and we rarely have a serious argument.
