Are the only conversations you initiate with your husband to complain about something or him?

I would venture a guess that the problems the two of you are having are not just his fault.

Yes, he may not have good communication skills... However, maybe you don't either.

Why not try NOT initiating complaint sessions for awhile?

Focus on positive things.

it is possible that the two of you are engaging in a game of tit for tat, a power struggle.

He won't be nice because you have a male friend. You won't drop the male friend because he won't be nice. and so on....
