Stuck in my marriage
Relationship Stress / by greenScarf5019
Last post
 January 9th
...See more I think you might remember me; I had previously shared about my relationship struggles. I’m two months into my marriage, and I find myself struggling to connect with my husband. My family expects a lot from me already, even asking about a baby, but I feel trapped in this situation. I’ve faced sexual abuse in the past, which my husband knows about and has been supportive of, but I’ve never felt any attraction toward him. He’s not my type, and his appearance and lack of education bother me, even though he’s kind, calm, and works hard at his hotel job. I can’t open up to my parents because they see him as a good person and wouldn’t understand. I feel stuck, angry, and unsure about what to do next What do i do now? Someone please help me

I hate my life

...See more I don’t know why I said okay to my marriage. Even when they showed me his photo, I felt I didn’t want to marry him and said no, but my uncle manipulated me into saying yes, and I trusted his words blindly. Now, I’m married to a man I’ve never felt attracted to. My marriage and my brother’s happened at the same time, but his was a love marriage. Now, they live happily—they spend time together, bathe together, eat together, and take photos holding hands. I can’t even bring myself to touch my husband’s hand. I don’t feel attracted to him. I don’t like his smile, his eyes, or anything about him, but my parents expect us to be like my brother and his wife. My mom even had heartache thinking about my marriage life. I’m not happy with him. He never starts a conversation; I always have to. He never does. I pretend to be happy just to see my parents happy.
