Geez, If that's true it's creepy. How on earth do I get him to see me as his wife then? I do I get his respect? He does not respect me and has not for some time. When I do things I am proud of like fixing plumbing,instead of being proud,he gets mad over money spent or will not say anything. Others complement me for things but he will not. He is still being non physical. I long to hold him and get affection but I am holding back and still talking and being pleasant.
