I want my husband to compromise more with me.

Question - (21 October 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 22 October 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, *henita32 writes:

I am 32 years old and my husband is 45. I find that one he acts like he doesn't remember important conversations unless it has something to do with something he likes. He only satisfies me 50% of the time when we're in bed. He always says things like, "you weren't born yet", "you were in elementry school when this happened". Whenever I want to go the movies or something that I want to do. He never feels like it or just doesn't want to. Then gets mad when I want to go out for a drink. He called me a bar fly yesterday. I try to go maybe once a month. I lost two best friends since I been with him, trying to be the "good wife" and stay home. But that's all I do is stay at home. What can I do to?

thatgothgirl20 agony auntHe sounds like he's a selfish man. Get used to it or leave, because he's not going to change. He sounds very immature. All about himself.

I have talked to him about this over and over again. At the time of the conversation he will say he understands or he will do better then maybe a week later act like we never had the conversation and he doesn't know what I'm talking about. As far as counseling, that was another conversation and he did say to much about it, so I called the Rev that married us and set up a session and he went off on me saying I should have talked to him first before going to him. Which I did. I even recorded me talking to him about it on my cell phone and he still was mad. Needless to say we didn't make to the session. He continues to say he's just going to try. I think maybe I expected too much from him. I thought it would be better because of his age and "maturity". I guess I will have to continue to wait and see. Thanks for the response.

Have you told him what you are telling us here?

I think you need to talk to him. Discuss these matters with him. If he is not prepared to compromise maybe you should consider counseling.
