@toughTiger6481 feel free to share. I am struggling myself. Going to marriage counseling and not really seeing any improvement. We are moving further and further apart. Feels like I have a flashlight searching for my marriage.

i understand ... i went to counseling myself since my spouse see nothing is wrong... counseling does not work when only one is trying ... just realized it is not worth putting any more effort in then they are not chasing this.
my partner is ill/ depressed and OK with rotting away on the couch so be it i am looking to start dating or having fwb to do things with as spouse is content being nothing more then TV / web browsing someday he will look up and see i left.
Sounds tough. I'm sorry. Try to do things for yourself that make you happy.

I have been at the "trying to repair stage" a long time ... it really should not be that hard ......at one point you love someone........ we all change and we should grow together... be friends / support each other and tell each other things. Instead some fall into" i know everything about you" and you become a fixture like a chair that they simply have no respect or admiration for......
example: spouse came home says a place a short drive away is having a strawberry festival ... tells me all about we should go etc..... one thing is i do NOT like strawberries ....never have.... just reminded him of this less then a month ago when he being so thoughtful since i had some dental work needed soft food bought the largest container of Strawberry yogurt i would NOT eat ..
But he is saying isn't he being thoughtful and willing to get out of the house and i AM being a stick in the mud....
