Nettie, it sounds like he has depression or midlife crisis that is not necessarily your fault - but he is trying to make you feel as if you are to blame. if you can afford to see an individual counsellor, I highly recommend it. the purpose of the counselling is to give you encouragement so you will not feel guilty for things that are *not* your fault.

if you can't afford counselling, post here with more details about your marriage, history, etc, and we will help you with encouragement and suggestions.

don't let HIS depression get you down!
