How can he be so selfish?
| Tue, 11-28-2006 - 11:41am |
Hi all - This is my first post (a friend sent me this site, thankfully). My husband of 5 years (dated for an additional 3 years prior) just told me a few weeks ago that he is leaving me. He said he is 'unhappy'..... We have 2 1/2 year old twin boys who we conceived via 4 IVF attempts,which was a very difficult time. We live in a nice house, have a great babysitter who helps with the boys, and I work from home fulltime. I am the major breadwinner in the house, and my husband lost his job back in July (where he had been working 3rd shift for the past 3 years) and has not gotten another one yet. He has not (and won't) touch me sexually since I became pregnant and is not at all affectionate with me. He is with the boys though, and is a really great father to them. I love him dearly and kept thinking that as soon as he gets another job (and one that didn't require him to work at night) that things would be better. I never thought he would leave me, especially with 2 twin boys so young. I am stunned, I feel rejected, and I feel that he is being very selfish. He won't go to counseling at all, says that he does not love me the same since the kids were born, and that is that. I guess I just wanted to hear what others that may be in a similiar situation are doing to cope. Thanks for listening....

I have found the most wonderful loving gentle passionate man who gives me all the love and affection any woman could want. It took a while before I was willing to trust a man but my life today is so much better than it was with my ex.
Twins,
