Hello,
I've never been on a website like this before, but I feel I need some real-life help.
We've been together 5 years, married 3 and live together - We've had our ups and downs like any relationship - but recently it's happening more and more frequently.
It's hard to put into words how I feel.. It's just a general "will this ever change" feeling. I don't doubt that we've both changed and have very different opinions. I'm very creative (I'm a web designer) and love life - romantic sop - will do anything to make her happy. The sort of guy who would work for £3 an hour as long as it's doing what I love.
But she's very different, she'll work a billion hours a week doing what she hates because the money's good. Her life consists of wake up, work, eat, sleep - and that's just something I could never do.
I always try to do romantic things such as propose walks, candle lit dinners, dancing etc.. and it all just goes hideously unappreciated. I keep trying to say things to her, but she has so much on her plate that If i moan to her that she won't come on a walk with me - I just feel selfish.
I don't doubt that we're growing apart, I don't doubt that she's 'too busy' to spend time with me.. But I don't know if this is something I can work at - Or will things ever change?
It feels like when you're in love with that girl at school and she doesn't even know you exist - except we're married..
