Why is my husband acting like this?
My husband and I have been married 11 years and we’re struggling. We both cheated in the past and hurt each other and he even became physical with me after I confronted him with evidence. A year later, I moved out and after 4 months he came over one day to talk and aked if I would go to counseling. I said yes and we went for 6 months. We have a 10 year old daughter and I really want her to live with both parents. I moved back into the house a month and a half after we started trying to make our marriage work again. We now have been back together for 15 months and it’s hard for us. We have good days and bad days. Last year I had 2 miscarriages, one in August and the second one in October. He wasn’t there for me at all and I realized he may not have known what to do but holding me or going to the doctor with me would have been nice. When I had the second miscarriage, he told me I should have gone to work instead of calling in sick. I am a nurse in the ER and we tell people all the time to rest so it would be silly for me to go to work. He even told me I didn’t know who the father of the baby was when we were arguing. Since the second miscarriage he doesn’t touch me anymore unless he wants to have sex and he hardly initiates that anymore. Maybe once or twice a month he does and the rest of the time it’s me. We went from having intercoure 3-4 times a week to 1-2 times a week. That isn’t enough for me and I told him this. I’m very clear about my needs and he makes all kinds of excuses ie you just initiated before me, I have to work in the morning, I don’t think about…whatever sounds good at the time. He will not tell me he loves me unless I say it first and even sometimes he won’t say it back and we don’t kiss unless I initiate it. I completely understand that there are trust issues because we both have them but I feel like he’s punishing me. He barely talks to me except to say "I’m going to work" and then he’ll call me after work to tell me he’s going to the gym. I think he’s messing around but I don’t have proof. During the past couple months he started taking a towel and washcloth to work along with soap to shower after he works out at lunch time. The same lunch time that he says is now cut short because he has a new boss and he can’t meet me for lunch because of it. Also, he now makes sure he lotions his body and doesn’t have a patch of dry skin whereas in the past he didn’t care much and he would use only a little bit of lotion for his whole body. I know he goes to the gym afterwards because I have checked it out before but I’m not trying to live like that and he has lost a lot of weight and has become very muscular. I would go to the gym with him occasionally but not much anymore. I work at night and I’m just exhausted when I would meet him on weekends at the gym befor going home. He’s always accusing me of cheating although I don’t go anywhere but home, work, store and appts. He swap phone bills and have access to each others e-mails. My work e-mail is on a intranet but his is a regular one where he can send to anyone. Recently it snowed and I couldn’t make it into work and when I called I got a text that referred to the movie Cool Runnings and when I asked who it was they said secret admirer and then they finally told me who it was. I told him then and there via text that he’s causing trouble with me and my husband and he apologized and later I found out he got my number from our staff contact book. I tried explaining this to my husband but basically he thinks he caught me cheating. Also, I received several e-mails from a mail co-worker with funny or cute pictures or video and he thinks I’m messing around with him too. There is not any personal text in the email. I told my husband that I would not give this guy my email if I was messing around on him and that I could have created a new one for him to email me at. I called myself being open and not trying to hide anything from him. Since I moved back, my husband spent a day texting another woman who is a "friend" but won’t talk to me regarding her relationship with my husband and I found the phone number to his friends mistress under our mattress in his handwriting. He told me he doesn’t talk to any friends from his work phone but I later found out that was a lie and he accuses me of talking to people while I am at work. He doesn’t get that I am working in an ER and nothing is really planned. I don’t always get a break and when I get one, I never know what time it will be. It is the only ER in the county so it’s busy a lot, it is sometimes so busy I can’t use the restroom when I want to but yet he thinks I have time to sit and talk on the phone. I don’t know how much more open I can be. I am honest with him so he can try and trust me again. I hate that I love him more than he loves me but I think it’s been like that for a long time. I hope this makes sense to you all. Why do you think he’s acting like this towards me? I feel like we should just call it
babes…he’s not acting. he’s seeing someone else. he’s hanging on, idk, maybe for security, maybe because he’s used to being with you…but he’s definitely seeing someone else. all the rest of that was just his drama, his was of diverting the attention elsewhere so "we don’t talk about my cheating".
ill tell you what you can do – stop. first, stop sweating him. jeesh! don’t go to kiss him anymore if you want him to kiss you. don’t initiate sex with him anymore either…let him come to you. then, i think you could really benefit from an outside activity to better yourself…such as school or some CEUs for work. something to get you out of your normal routine.
it really does sound like you two may as well just call it quits, but that doesn’t mean that’s what you SHOULD do.
better yourself, pray more, love your family harder than you ever have before and be willing to lose everything you’ve ever worked for in your family as the sacrifice for seeking forgiveness for what you’ve done.
good luck.

well to be honest i think that you to have hurt eachother way to much to every be able to be completly happy, i think it’s best for your daughter to be around happy parents, not this way.
wish you the best of luck.

I’d bet that you have never really sat him down and said any of this to him. Your problem is that you are a communicator but, your husband doesn’t know that you are.

If you’ve been to six months of counselling and have been back together for 15 months and this is happening it tells you something doesn’t it? The strategies that were put in place from counselling aren’t working. Discuss this with your husband. As I see it, you’ve got a couple of options. More counselling or a clean break. Your daughter deserves to have a happy home regardless of whether it’s one parent or two. Good luck.

he’s like that because he’s given up. my initial reaction to your statements is that, yes, he probably is cheating again. in truth, i would almost suspect that you yourself have been thinking about it as well. a man’s mentality isn’t so complicated to understand (nor a woman’s for that matter). he, like you, has been betrayed. you both have trust issues. you both are lacking that bond you had before things went so bad. difference is a guy NEVER really bounces back after being betrayed (no matter what he says, it is always going to be in the back of his mind). to a man, it’s either lie to ourselves & pretend like it never happened (which makes it worse), or try to find a way to live with it (a better way of putting it is to just simply "exist"). but we, as men, tend to keep so many things bottled up inside us, we never want to talk about any of it. & by the time we realize we have to, it’s already too late. i assure you, we can be open about nearly everything, but you will NEVER know everything that is on a man’s mind or in his heart (some things we’re just always going to feel we have to keep to ourselves).
your easiest choice is to end it before it completely turns ugly (because, through all of this, you still have a little girl to think about). another choice (one i strongly urge you to consider) is to GET THE HELL AWAY WITH HIM FOR A WHILE. let someone you trust watch the little one for a while, BOTH of you take time off from work, & just get away. no cellphones, no emails, nothing but you & him. find a common ground again (besides your child). you both have over a decade invested into each other, & you asking this question shows you’re not ready to give up on him. don’t let him give up on you. remind him that, despite the mistakes you both have made, you are still his woman & he is still your man.
handle your business.

hi….i guess you know the answer to this so you must be asking for support with your decision you will soon have to make and when you do make it you will be making it for your daughter as well but you have to try to be happy too and since it seems like you have already lost him and there have been way to many breaches in you two’s trust department plus you two have already tried counseling it seems the handwriting has been on the wall for some time. life is short and sometimes being the one to have to make the hard choices makes you the bad "guy" in the situation but when you are doing it for the greater good then sacrifices must be made sometimes, whatever you decide try to be happy with the rest of your life and by all means….guard your heart

maybe your both needs time to know all the problems and to settle anything , if your husband love you and like to save your marriage he will forget and give chance for the sake of your kids and the very important is what you make happy…enjoy life if your husband does not love you anymore move on face truth and give yourself a break love yourself first and put God first in every decision in your life.

Too much drama girl, plus neither of you trust the other! Call it.
fudio | Jan 12, 2010
nice brick wall of text.
you are both immature little children who should not be married. seriously. you are both juvenile game players. it’s repulsive even reading about all the 7th grade antics you both pull.
GROW UP – FAST. ACT MATURE UNTIL YOU ARE MATURE.
oh and one more quick thing, cupcake, – STOP GETTING KNOCKED UP.

Have you ever thought he hardly initiates sex with you because he is scared of you getting pregnant and miscarrying again?
Have you ever thought he could be really upset about the miscarriages and insecure about your feelings towards him due to your affair.
You say he goes to the gym, he has lost weight and become muscular so obviously he is going there.
Exercise promotes endorphins what make us feel good, have you ever thought he may be depressed and so goes to the gym because it makes him feel better?.
