Again, thank you all for the advice, if nothing else I appreciate being able to have a place where I can talk about these kinds of problems and actually get a response ( a rare and precious thing).
I am employed, I hate my job, but it brings my a pay check so that’s whats important. After taking some time to really think about all this I think the cause of at least some of our relationship problems is me. We’ve grown comfortable with each other and our day to day lives, and I take that inactivity and get scared the she is becoming bored. She isn’t the most emotional of affectionate person, and that is not a bad thing, I need to stop reading into things and seeing problems where none exist. I need to stop taking my relationship insecurities and projecting them on her.
@Hobbes:
This may sound a little weird but did she started taking the pill about the time when your ‘cooling down’ happened?
Good thinking but she had been on the pill for years before any of this started. She is actually on a number med to keep her head on strait, and if anything being able to afford them again has greatly helped her mood.
I think alot of the problems we’ve been having just come from the stress of getting older, trying to keep a job and pay the bills, and having absolutely nothing go the way you plan. I think instead of trying to fight or understand it, I just need to go with the flow, for now.
Again, gentlemen I appreciate all of your insight and opinions on this matter, and if nothing else at least I know I have a place to fall back on if the dice fall the wrong way :-D Thank you
