How do you not take it personally when your spouse does those things or gives off those vibes that make it really tough to connect?
My husband came home from another looooonng day at work. He's been working 12 hours a day for weeks. I completely appreciate and respect that he needs to right now.
But sometimes it seems like he doesn't have much left to give after giving all his energy and time to work.
We went out for dinner tonight after he got home. He seemed to have very little interest in talking or listening to me. He tried a little.
It led to a little tiff, but for once we didn't let it get out of control (thank you, counseling).
Some of it is his crazy busy schedule and exhaustion; some is just his personality. Either way, how do I not take it personally or not let it bother me to the point that I feel really frustrated or hurt?
