Complains Unhappy Husbands Give About Their Marriage
Complains Unhappy Husbands Give About Their Marriage
*1. I WISH SHE’D APPRECIATE ME:*
Whether you work in an office, run a household, or some combination of the two, you’re both likely frustrated with your heaping plates of responsibility. And although it’s a natural reaction, piling on more the second your partner steps through the door is not the best way to get him to hear or help you. “Instead of leading with a list, understand that he may need a few minutes to unwind. You’ll both listen better when you’ve decompressed and can actually focus on the issues at hand.
*2. THE ROMANCE BETWEEN US HAS DRASTICALLY REDUCED:*
Relationships change and evolve, and sometimes the very qualities that attracted you to your husband are the ones that wind up making you nuts. It could be that you’re simply too stressed with the day-to-day to experience romance the same way—and that’s okay. The key is to come to a collective understanding of what sweet gestures now do it for you. A change of environment may do it—consider taking a break from the grind and going away for a long weekend.
*3. SHE MADE ME BELIEVE SHE WAS SOMEONE ELSE:*
Switches don’t just get turned off. There is usually something more going on in situations like this.” If you felt like you had to put on a mask to get your husband to marry you, you may want to examine what’s beneath the surface that made you feel that way. “When individual issues come up in therapy, I think it’s important for both partners to look at them together.”
*4. I MISS HAVING LIGHT HEARTED GISTS WITH HER:*
There’s no question that having an open dialogue about your children is important, but we understand that it can get tedious after a while. Once the kids go to bed or while they’re out at weekend activities, make an effort to chat about lighthearted topics, like cooking, her taste for ice cream, chocolates, perfumes, as well as more serious news or political issues to keep you connected and stimulated as a couple.
*5. THE S3X HAS DRASTICALLY REDUCED:*
Both you and your husband deserve equal say in your marriage, so it shouldn’t be up to one person to determine your sexual state as a couple. That’s partially because far more often than not, lack of sex is the symptom—not the problem. “When you get into a pattern for a really long time, it can be painful and difficult to change those habits.
*6. SOMETIMES I FEEL ALONE:*
It’s human nature to occasionally get so wrapped up in your own issues that it’s difficult to see someone else’s perspective. “When we protect ourselves, we feel like we are the only one who feel a certain way. But once you sit down together and start looking at yourselves and how you’ve been impacted, most partners realize they feel the exact same way.” Voice your feelings of isolation before the next crisis comes up so you have a plan in place for when things get tough, like agreeing to take a few hours for yourself, then sitting down for a cup of coffee or chill and relax and have a heart-to-heart discussion.
