I am literally alone on the couch watching tv. He never sits by me or tries to instigate sex. I would like to have more than that and I have told him that. He says that I should make the move but I just cant get in that place when he is always away from me and asleep. Am I being selfish. He tells me that he doesn't like what I watch and that I am on the computer. So I have stopped doing that and started putting the tv on things he likes to watch and he still goes to sleep. I was so frustrated last night that I got up and went to bed and left him in the recliner. He came to bed five minutes later mad. Didn't say anything just slamming doors and such. He gets up the next morning like everything is fine, but its not fine with me. I even filed for divorce last september. He said he would try but its the same thing. It only last about 2-3 weeks and he is back to doing the same thing. He never calls me on the phone either. But he expects me to call him daily. I think I am just tired of being rejected by him and don't know if I am being fair.

 Hey, we all get tired of that familiar old routine. We want romance and passion and yet we look at that same old dude lieing on the couch and think...wow, another saturday night down the tubes.
You're not really being rejected by him, at least not in his mind...can you afford a trip away together? Please try, try again...or you may wind up with that "the grass is always greener' syndrome.

 This is at least a signal that he may be suffering from serious depression.
