I Am Married But Lonely

Today is my anniversary. We've been having some issues lately anyway, but I've been trying to get him to work it out. Anyway, I come downstairs, post a picture of us at our wedding and a nice sentiment on Facebook and go to say Happy Anniversary to him. He's all pissed off from work last night, and I get a sigh and grumbled, "Happy Anniversary". Wouldn't look at me, no smile, no kiss...nothing.

So, I come back here to my computer and just start crying. Then he sees me crying and sighs again, "What's wrong? You look angry." I didn't know how to respond. Isn't it obvious considering what JUST happened? I finally said, "Why does it seem like this is just another day to you?" Now he's walking past me grumbling, "It's not just another day."

Umm..really? I'm so frustrated and so drained. I'm just so done.

I can relate. I was married for 30 years. The last 8 years or so we drifted apart. She started with new friends Thura new job. Did not include me with the new group. Not much in the way of intemacy. Anyway to shorten up the story, we finally divorced. After the divorce, learned that she had a lover. We have been divorced about 3 years now. DAMN I am happy !!! I realize now we are both better off. I think quite a few couples are together because there used to being together. Best I can tell you, Get Out of Dodge. You will find someone that will give you the affection your lacking and deserve.
