married

The most important four words for a successful marriage: 'I'll do the dishes.'

She wasn't ready
She regretted signing the papers before the ink had a chance to dry on the bright white form. While it only took a few minutes, she felt she was signing her life away, one pen stroke at a time. And just like that, the house was theirs. The house she never really wanted. The fixer upper house. A house her husband had spotted and fell in love with once when he was just a teen with a newly minted driver’s license. It was just standing there, amidst a desolated country road that had become his driving playground. Big, majestic, and inviting, almost as if it was welcoming him. Almost as if it was waiting for him. He had always been a vivid dreamer and imagined himself settling down with his future wife, raising kids there one day.

I Feel No Emotional Connection To My Husband (Why Do I Feel Emotionally Detached From My Husband)
If your husband hardly ever shares what he feels and may seem uninterested in hearing you talk about your emotions, he may be emotionally unavailable. You confront him about it but he refuses to talk and he completely ignores you and makes you feel like you don't make sense at all. If you insist about it, he may get defensive or angry. Before you learn how to get him to emotionally connect, you must first have to know what's keeping him from connecting with you. He may have had a traumatic childhood that prevents him from trusting people. Or maybe he grew up with an emotionally distant father. He may not feel safe or comfortable relating at a deeper level. If this is the case then the most important thing you can do for him is to make him feel safe. Reassure him that you are there for him. Be that person who can help him heal emotionally.

Appreciation is very important in people's lives. Although other people may appreciate you, you are likely to be very disappointed if your husband is not among them.
