Marital history- It's hard to explain...we just spiraled and hit rock bottom, but looking back i see sings of H MLC.
-It really went downhill in Jan 2014 when i started a new job and became super stressed out -March 2014- H decides to completely and utterly change career paths (he went from a financier to an actor) -March-July- we are stressed, not connecting. He complains about Sex life (well I take it as complaining and nagging vs. listening for his true needs) -On our anniversary in July 2014, he says, if we're not pregnant in two months there's no point in being married. -that was a bomb drop to me and i seriously questioned if I wanted to be with a man who didnt care about my needs. -From that BD, the crap just hit the fan. I was completely withdrawn and didnt feel safe around him. - He also wasn't getting what he needed from me. -We went to counseling in Jan 2015, but at that point, I think he was done. - ILYB... occured in March 2015... - I beg, cry, plead and try to work on us alone from March-June (that didn't work). I profess that he is worth the fight, and I will do whatever it takes to get back on track. - I moved out in June to give him the space he wants - been separated since then... Recent Evidence of pow. - and that's about it..... That really is how/when the relationship went downhill, before we were both completely happy and totally in love. In October 2013, he professed that he could never love anyone as much as he loved me.
I'm not perfect and am working on my issues (withdrawing for one), but I refuse to throw in the towel during this first really rough patch of marriage.
I should note that H was married previously... it lasted 1.5 years. Also in 2014, he started going to IC on his own because he was feeling "trapped" in his life and was diagnosed with death anxiety. He was also dealing with heavy issues from childhood abut being abondoned. a few months later he bought the Harley. Looking back, he for sure has to be in MLC, right? This whole time, Ive been blaming myself for everything.
That's the nitty gritty of it. Is there hope?
