I am 26 and I've been married for almost 4 years. My husband is a recovering addict with almost 1 year of sobriety. We have seperate bedrooms, never eat dinner together, and rarely spend time together. Our sex life is almost gone...I need intimacy and closeness...he says we just need a good f*#%. He knows I need much more, and is trying, but it all feels like too little too late. I am SO unhappy and this is nothing like my ideal marriage. I want someone to spend time with, cuddle with, sleep with, and share common interests with. We have none of these things. He says he loves me and can't imagine not being married to me...we are in counselling. We are both responsible for the way things are now, but I am struggling to put the effort in to make it better after years of being the only one trying while he was using drugs. I am looking for experience, advice, opinions etc...do I commit myself to fixing this, or will I always be unhappy and unsatisfied? Can he ever really meet my needs?
