If feeling resentful of your husband for not sharing in your struggles, is preventing intimacy between you, then recognise that your heart is suffering and crying out for attention.
Every married couple experiences disconnection and difficulties. But if your husband is not oppressing or abusing you, then you always have the opportunity to build a soul mate in him (because yes, they don’t just fall out of heaven!)
Stop for a moment and try to see that even though things aren’t as you wish right now, they don’t have to continue like this. You need to ride the waves, even the rough and high ones, keeping your sight firmly on the goal.
There is no perfection, there is only progress.
If you want to build the relationship you dreamed of back in your engagement days, you’re going to have to stop blaming him for not meeting your expectations. Blaming has never, in the history of time, made anyone co-operative, (yes, not even if they were most definitely guilty!) But rather, dear sis, think of your relationship as a cycle. Start with yourself, think about your husband’s needs and then start fulfilling them. In turn, feeling cared for and happy, he will fulfill your needs too (dont hold any expectations, be grateful for every small act of service), therefore continuing the cycle of your relationship.
