Thank you so much for your advice!

He is indeed a very loving person with me, and I am sure he would have been so different and so much more positive with people had he been raised in a different environment. I feel so bad for that and would give anything if I could heal the negativity he has seen throughout his life thus far. Also being the wife I feel it is my responsibility to help in the healing process.

However being a human being it is difficult for me to maintain the balance. I think your advice on 'not nagging' is the most important thing. I will make sure I control myself and maybe reduce my expectations little bit while things improve.

I am wondering if there are any good books, seminars, dvds on marriage maintenance? I guess if we can work out the basics somehow and come up with some ground rules it would be a good start.
