That is how I would describe the relationship between myself and my husband. We love each other, but recently, it seems that we don’t like one another very much. We have nothing other than our son to talk about. We are both very sensitive to each others remarks. We are defensive and unable to communicate effectively.
We have discussed our “problem”. However, we are unable to hammer out anything since we have the whole communicating issue. It is like a catch 22.
I enjoy his company most of the time. It breaks my hear that we have managed to stay married for almost 11 years, but we have nothing to say to each other. Why? I don’t get it. Are we bored? Yes, maybe. Are we tired… yes, but I don’t think it is of each other. We are just drained when it is time for “us” time. So we put it off and on the back burner. Now we are almost like room mates, who on occasion share a dinner and a family outing with the little guy.
I feel stuck. I feel lonely. I know that he also feels this way. The question is what to do about it?"
