He doesn't appreciate me. Should I just let him spend his nights alone?

A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

My story is too long to go in depth but my partner and I don't live together (his choice) but we do spend quite a bit of time together.

I believe in keeping a relationship alive and I do make an effort. I made him a nice meal yesterday, cleaned the house for him, sorted his washing, send him nice, flirty texts, etc. However, we haven't been making love as much as normal as he has been working on his car after work and then when he finally gets back, he is on his computer searching for information regarding his car.

This is what happened again yesterday and though I made an effort, he didn't. I went to bed and it wasn't until more than two hours later that he decided to come to bed. This is the early hours of this morning. I had gone downstairs to him and said I was tired waiting for him to come to bed and his retort simply was; "Well, go home then."

I think he wants me to put up and shut up. I am tired of being understanding. I have done the sexy underwear bit and I think he doesn't always like the control being taken from him when I do that.

I haven't been able to sleep now as a result and this makes me feel so down. He is sleeping like a baby.

I suppose the best thing I can do is simply go home in the morning and just leave him to it. What do you think?

A reader, anonymous, writes (15 May 2007):

I was in a relationship like this last year, there are 3 options you have:

1. Play him at his own game, get a hobby or some new friends and dedicate your time to that, he’ll soon miss your attention and start to pine for you!!

2. Become interested in his car, it can be something you can do together and he’ll feel manly showing you how a car works. If he hates you being involved then he might be using it as an excuse to spend time away from you, whether he recognizes it or not.

3. If these don’t work then the best thing to do is end it. He'll soon realize what a gem you are and if he doesn't then he’s a complete idiot.

Hope this helps.
