[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 632407, member: 13542"] You matter as much as anyone. It isn't ABOUT you as much as the whole situation impacts you, you are a part of it, don't downplay the importance and value of yourself and your feelings. You have a right to express your feelings. It doesn't have to be either/or, either he shares things with you and you get upset or he doesn't and you get upset, there is a middle ground in there somewhere and that is where the counseling comes in, therapists are trained in helping you to identify the issues and find solutions. Your husband loves you and I'm sure wants the best for you but he doesn't know what that is, YOU do. So, you need to express your feelings and ask for what you want. That's the first step towards a healing for you and your husband. He sounds like a good man trying to take care of everyone's feelings, when he really should only be concerned at this point with yours and his. The problem is difficult child, the solutions for you and husband are with you and husband. Talk openly about your feelings and ask for what you need. [/QUOTE]
