Experience is not relative to age. It can come at any time and it is how you use it that really matters. I look back to the past and do regret things because I feel that I have learned little from experience.

The Realist agony auntWhat you could do is think of a problem he has with the relationship that you can fix up on your own now that he will notice in you. This may get the ball rolling giving him hope that things can get better. A person is much more willing to change if they see someone else putting in effort first. I know it's not exactly fair that you should start this off but someone has to and it seems to me that you, having the most drive, will do well it.

Best of luck to you and your marriage.
