What is it......
about your marriage that makes you unhappy? Or, conversely, what do you cherish about your marriage or your spouse?
I cherish the fact that Moon has been there for me through all our ups and downs of 37 years. (a lot of ups and downs!) He just retired last year and he does get on my nerves sometimes, because all he wants to do is follow me around! What do you do to get back a little me space, besides change my own habits. I now stay up all night and sleep half of the day!

OMG! My life you're talking about! Well, my husband retired 10 years ago at the age of 58. And all of a sudden we were joined at the hip. I wasn't working either because we had relocated. Initially, I was never going to work again. But he never left the house, has no hobbies, etc. So finally, I said, if he won't get a job at Wal_Mart being a greeter, then I will go back to work, just for a break. But I cherish the times when he DOES go somewhere without me (very rare) and I can stay home in my own house alone, doing what I want.

Well, it is an option. It is a good thing I enjoy working. But I only work part-time. I always request the first day of deer season off because I can count on him going out with his cousins for that one day and I can count on the fact that he won't even see a deer let alone shoot one. And he will usually be gone all day and I can turn on the TV and the computer and have the radio on in the kitchen and the vacuum cleaner sitting in the living room and no one complains.

I really don't want to go back to work! We live with my Mom so I can take care of her. We've actually been looking for a house with room for my Mom, my daughter and her family, and us! Found a couple, but apparently not the right one yet! I think he'll be more into his things once we have our own place again. At least I'm hoping...

Hi I am new to this group..Was browsing and when I saw the info for this one I knew I had found a place for me..What is it that makes me unhappy about my married life....We have been married going on 25 years and the last 5 or so have not been so good...It seems like the longer we are together the further apart we get and that is keeping me from being happy..I am tired of sitting here in the same room as him night after night and yet feeling more lonely than I ever have in my entire life..Hoping to meet lots of people here to keep me company from time to time....

Welcome Tropixxz.
The group is pretty quiet, some bursts of activity now and then, but not much. Like Carol620 said, you can PM me if you want to talk.

My husband is the same way,I can't go or do anything without him with me. I use to have friends but because he's always around they don't come around anymore. He's been off all summer and due to go back to work next week I can't wait and when he does retire I will get job. I need time away!! I am unhappy because there's no romance,he overlooked both my birthday and our anniversary and he has a temper and is lazy.I've been unhappy for a long time but there's nothing I can do about it,I'm to old to start over.
