Hi, Maya. I'm sorry I'm so late in responding, and I'm very sorry for
what you are going through. There is no easy answer for this
situation, and only you know what is right for you. I don't know what
has transpired since you made the post, but my advice would be to talk
to him and give it one more try. Sometimes people/couples get into
bad habits, including how they communicate - or not - and how they
behave. Usually, we aren't aware of these habits. One can only hope
that if the habit(s) are brought to our attention, we will work to
change it...but that doesn't always happen. It takes two people to
work on a relationship. And sometimes it acutally takes three people,
including the help of a counsellor. Is therapy something you would be
willing to try? In any event, it sounds like you need to put the
focus back onto you rather than him. Do things that make you happy.
Spend quality time with your friends. Go for a promotion at work or
land a fabulous new job. If you give a little more to yourself, you
won't feel so spent.
I hope that things have improved. Please keep me posted on what's
happening. I wish you all the best.
Cheers,
Sandra
