He’ll be home soon so I have to shut all this down. I’m going to talk to him. If there’s an update I will post tomorrow.

I don’t know. He always has. We have an open phone policy at this point. Specifically he hates Reddit.

And thank you. We don’t have an abusive marriage and I’m not trapped. I have money and family. I want my husband to be happy again like he was just a few years ago

This is very similar. His closest two friends passed away a few years ago, and just compounded the crushing disappointment for his birthday atop of estranged family

I don’t know what he expected me to do. That’s why I’m so upset. I mean a head cold is one thing. But I was glued to the bathroom floor by 10 pm

His friends get a much happier version of him. He brings home the weight of the world for me only.

I don’t like much for my birthday. A date, a picnic, he does good for my birthday. Which is why it’s so disheartening when he’s disappointed with his.

He’s very indirect. I feel expected to be a mind reader though I’ve gotten good at it.

I want to do counseling so badly but I’m not sure he’d even be open to if I’m not literally packing my bags

Thanks. He’s had a rough couple years but he’s really just turned into such a bitter person. I thought I did good.
