He made me feel like a stalked animal, he didn't want to get close in my way. It used to not be like that but I think carrying a lot of the work load of the marriage and his first affair just made me need that little extra romance and he never seemed to want to go there for me. Was it always all about him??
Not sure I understand this completely. How did he make you feel like a stalked animal?
I don't think needing romance is a problem AT ALL. My W and I used to be very romantic. I still was in my own way. Problem was that she's very opinionated and she developed an attitude that being playful wasn't dignified. So she acted cold. It was always her way or the highway. This sounds worse than it actually was, but even an old friend called after hearing about the D and told me, "One thing that always bothered me was that you were such a nice person and she never seemed to have any empathy." Telling words. Not that I'm a saint, by any means, but you need empathy to get over the rough spots.
