I'm no doctor, so I can't diagnose anything, but I think he might be ADD and bi-polar. We'll be having a great night and be happy, and all of the sudden, with nothing setting him off, he'll just get this mad face and get quiet and snappy at me. It scares me. Also, he can talk for hours at a time, but when someone is trying to tell him something he can't pay attention for more than a minute or 2. He went back to school and is getting straight A's, but if it's not sports or school...he can't pay attention for any amount of time.
Besides all that, I have sensitivity/trust issues, and he and I have been arguing lately, and I'm realizing how different we are more and more everyday. He keeps insisting, we love eachother so it will work itself out, but he isn't changing (which i don't expect him to, it's just he doesn't see anything wrong with the things he does that hurt me) and I'm not changing (every time we fight it's the same old fight). I suggested that we might want to see a counselor SOMEDAY...those were my words, and he started laughing and said "What a crock. I'm not wasting my hard earned money on that! I don't need to pay someone to talk about marriage questions that have never been answered. I love you that's all that matters, get over it." I know he's not trying to be mean, and I know he loves me, but maybe he's just doing this to protect himself from learning that something IS wrong...I don't know. What can I do? I can't force him to go...and I find both of us being depressed a lot.
