Question - (17 July 2010) 0 Answers - (Newest, )
A female United States age 30-35, *tsann writes:

Hello everyone. I have an issue that I KNOW has happened to many other women.

I'm losing intrest in my husband, and I'm constantly depressed. CONSTANTLY.

I've been in the United States Navy for over 2 years, and I was dating my husband for all of those years. We recently got married in June, and already I can feel the stress of our marriage on my shoulders.

I am the soul provider in our 'family'. We have no children, but we do have one kitten and a ferret. I pay for everything, rent, food, car insurance, our vehicles, EVERYTHING.

I feel so selfish for wanting him to do more, (he's a Reservist in the Navy also, and he goes to school every monday and thursday from 6-10 at night). I would appreciate if he cooked dinner every once in awhile, even if he did the dishes. Grr I would even be happy if he CLEANED at all.

I'm in the military, so obviously I have a VERY high stress job, and I work crazy hours. I go to school every Wed. and Saturday from 6-10 at night.

I hardly get time to do homework, because I'm either cleaning, cooking, taking care of our animals, filling up the gas tanks in the cars, getting groceries, paying bills, putting in trouble calls for our apartments, volunteering for community service (which looks good for the military)... And I'm just so depressed all the time... I would just appreciate if my husband would step up a little more.

Am I being selfish?? I hate even typing it because it continues to make me feel selfish! I dislike this feeling soo much. How do I get him to help out more without sounding selfish?? HOW do I do this??

Also... I haven't has sex with my husband in over 2-weeks.... And I've only been married for a little over a MONTH... just over a month, what bullcrap is that?? And we're both only 20 years old... I don't understand? Does he not find me attractive? I don't feel attractive. I'm sick and tired of feeling un-wanted, un-appreciated, and ugly.

I just need to know, how do I bring these things up with him, without him thinking I'm being selfish... Help please! I'm just so worn out, I need more, and I'm so close to calling our relationship quits...... because I don't know if I can work past all of these when I'm doing everything I can, and he does almost nothing.
