Hi..LL..I have been lurking..I hear your frustration and I don't know what to say.. I do know that I am not sure that h and I have ever bben "friends"..he has always provided..great father..lover..but as far as friend..no..to just sit and talk as friends do..no..he is kinda like your h(hmmm..all men!!??))pay the bills..then sit and watch tv..I have always asked him to do things..and he usually did..I guess you have to really dig and find out what you really want from a h..your h..the way he is. You know you can't change them and thinking so is only setting yourself and the m up for problems. When I now look at h or think of little things he did do, I discover that I have not taken the time or PATIENCE all these years to see all the good that he has in him...I am hoping that it is not too late...stop and look at your h..reflect back to all the good years that you have had...we might just be expecting too much now that the boats have been rocked.
I know you will do what you need to do for you..and that is the ultimate goal..to make you happy with your life.
