OK, Dee, that situation really sounds like it sucks. But now it begs the question, why are you still there? Why do you feel you are "stuck in the situation"?...
That reminds me of an experience early in my college days. I was a new Freshman in a girl's dorm. There were a lot of new people, so it was easy to become...

Sandra, I tend to feel that way when I go to singles dances. I dance a lot with different women, I am social and make chit chat. I sometimes have danced with...
You guys have been asking and answering some interesting questions. See us guys have feelings too. I wanted to ask you Steve if your wife has good friends that...
I understand the situation you're describing, Ira. I think my problem back in dorm days might have been more that all we talked about was details of our lives....
Sandra, that is a valid question, and one that I have asked myself many times. I think part of it is fear. For many years I devoted myself to my husband and...

Well, Dee, The sad part here is that we build our own prisons, and I've been as guilty as anyone. I know the future looks scary, and I hate to be advocating...
Dee, As a former microbiologist and current computer programmer, I'm in no way qualified to make this diagnosis - but this sounds like depression to me. Does...
Dee, I too have had such feelings that it would be nice just to stop "being", just to stop the pain. One thing that I have found that helps me when I start ...
first of all thank you to everyone who reached out to me. Camscottage, I tried to send you an email but it bounced back to me. For those of you who asked,...
Hi Dee, I'm wondering why you are afraid to let your husband know you go to counseling, since you have told him to go--I mean you have put it out there. What...
Well Sandra, maybe you weren't a smart social outcast in college. I don't know quite how to say this, but maybe you wanted something then but wouldn't have...
I'm not sure I'm understanding you, Ira. Except that there was definately a lack of connection in that situation for me. I wanted to be interested, really....

I guess what I was saying is what you wanted may have been out there for you, but at that age it may be hard to even define what we want, much less try and...
Ira, a few weeks ago I told my husband that if he didn't go for counseling I was going to leave him, his response was "I guess you're leaving" of course I was...
