I've been married to my husband for 12 months but have been together for 4 years. We have a 2 year old boy together. I dont feel like i belong with him anymore. He is a great dad to our son, and says he loves me very much but he has a hard time trying to show me. Work is always his priority and i have tried to scare him by saying i will leave and that i dont want to have this relationship with him anymore, but i just cant bring myself to do it. I do really love him alot.. thats the reason i married him.. but i just dont feel a connection with him anymore.
Another problem is his mum... he is her only child.. and i understand that monthers love their only children heaps, but she's too much for me to handle.she's moved in with us and it's good her being there because she helps with our son... but i feel like she's taken over my role of being a mother and wife. i love her and i love my husband... but i'm just not happy anymore... i really dont think i can love my life crying anymore....

First of all get rid of the mother-in-law. The Bible says to leave our mother and father and cleave to your wife. That is bad news all the way around. Too many hens in the hen house. And second you have to understand how men think, they feel like unless they are making alot of money to provide for the family they are somehow less of a man. It's a male ego thing. It doesn't mean he doesn't love you...just the opposite....he loves you very much and wants to provide the best for his family. Men are idots like that. They don't understand that women want quality time and guinine love rather than alot of stuff. Sorry to say that even if you tell him that he still won't understand. Pray for him and let God do the work of changing him. But mom...she needs to go...and the sooner the better. That is one sure way to kill a marriage.

First, no matter the benefit---Mom has to go! Talk to him about how you are feeling. If you love him, try and save your marriage. Are you bored with him? Spice things up! Does the grass look greener on the other side? Chances are, there are problems on that side too. Be Careful, marriage should not be taken lightly. Just try...A good man is hard to find. Good Luck!

it sound like you need to let him know how you feel about this
and you need to be firm about it. if you say that you are unhappy and there need to be some changes. then do what
you say. your actions will speak so much louder then any thing
you can say. to him and his mother.
