Bmtgrl,

I know exactly how you feel. I guess there are more women out there that have gone through or are going through what we are. It's too bad that some men don't know what they want even though they say they do.

I have only been married 2 years but with him for 4 and since my daughter was born 2 years ago everything went from bad to worse.

I hope we find the answers we need. At least your husband will talk to you a little. Mine doesn't and doesn't treat me as an equal but like I am below him.

I know I'm not the only one facing these issues, but as you know it can feel like it. If you want to send a private message we can maybe be support for each other.

You sound a bit like myself, I am always trying to fix things in the relationship. It seems like all I do is try to sort things out, I am always the one to start us talking, I am always the one to look for counseling, I am always the one to make the first move. I like to think I married a strong man, not to be the 'mammy' of the relationship. In one of your posts you ask 'how can I fix this' or something. This says it all really. It doesn't sound like he wants to do anything to sort this out. I totally empathise.

Sometimes people (men more then women) don't know what to do or are afraid to admit there is something wrong.
