I met my husband when I as 14, we were married when I was 16 he was 19. We have now been together for 55 years the last twenty being difficult to say the least. I love my husband but he is so difficult to live with now. He had always been a quiet man who never spoke about feelings etc, not prone to outward shows of affection. Most of the time our marriage was good but my husbands inability to talk about his feelings has slowly become a real problem as he won’t discuss anything, even when it causes so much hurt. The physical side of our marriage was always good but there is now no closeness at all, he never kisses me, hugs me and can go for days without having any physical contact, even to touch my hand, shoulder etc. I tried to get close and talk to him but he closes down and literally ignores me or asks me what I’m going on about. He never wants to go anywhere, doesn’t speak to the children or GC and then complains that no one tells him anything but never makes any effort to go to see them unless he goes with me when I ask him. I get so hurt, upset and angry at his silences that I give up and carry on but feeling resentful. This has been going on now for twenty years and I’m at a loss as to what to do. I have nowhere to go, he said I can go but he’s not going anywhere and says no more. I know there isn’t a magic wand but I have lived in hope that one day he will understand and at least have a conversation rather than ignore me and my feelings.
They're Back! Swifts zinging around!
