[QUOTE="busywend, post: 275755, member: 391"] Jo, here is my opinion - but I have never been married, so keep that in mind! LOL! It is easy to get into a rut, but takes way hard work to get out of it. Sort of like losing weight - easy to put on, but hard to take off. And hard to motivate to take it off because it is just so hard and takes so long. Same with relationships, sometimes we put off the work because we just do not have it in us to work so hard just yet. Maybe that is what husband is doing. Maybe he is putting off the work because he just can't do it yet. Maybe he is struggling so much with the AA that he just can't work on the relationship until he gets that in check. I think your marriage is worth it. I think you are on the down side of one of life's hills, but you will go up again. I think if you work on yourself and get some external things going on, hobbies, small trips on your own, visiting friends, etc. he will take more notice of you enjoying life and will want to join you again in that happiness.
