Q: Broken Dreams....
asked by: Billie on October 24th, 2003

Well my heart as well as my dreams have been broken. I thought I married my true love. He was the kind of man that could finish my sentences.......Sigh... But he has done a 360 since the day we said ido... Now 3 years later... He is not what I want..... I don't know what to do... And there is nothing going on between us sexually ...... I am thinking if not with me then he is with someone else..... I just don't get it.. I work, I care for our child, I cook, clean, do laundry.. Shop, pay the bills, etc... And I get nothing in return......Any experience out there that can help me?

Yes, he needs to realize what you do and you need to be appreciated. I suggest you both go to counceling and find out why there is a disconnection between you two. You cant just run out of a marriage without trying. You have to at least say, "hey I tried". You need to have better communication and talk about this. You are a wife, not a slave. It takes two to be in a marriage and make it work. Even though you cannot keep that "romantic high" forever you need to be in love and happy. If he doesnt want counceling, then you go. And you need to decide what you want to do. Everything you posted here, you need to tell him. He might not know. I know with jose, I have to be open and tell him how it is because he just doesnt get it sometimes. I hope you work things out.

People do not change. When a person shows you who they are, belive it you will be unhappy, in this relationship, as long as you are together. You can go to counceling day and night, talk is cheap. Good luck!

Changing your life can be both scary and daunting, especially when children are involved. But the truth of the matter is that if you don't change it then no one will. If your husband has become so displacent of you I would enquire as to why. Is he worried about finance? Is he feeling stressed about your lifestyles? Is sex an issue because of the lack of fire in your marriage?

If he can not answer honestly straight away then he is hiding something, and in my book without honesty and good communication no relationship is worth fighting for since there is so seemingly no relationship.

If this is the case then use your strength in getting things done to change the way you live your life, it's ok to be a little selfish and ruthless at times, especially if you're unhappy. Try not to worry, sometimes going it alone is just what you've been doing anyway.

Hope I've helped. xx
