writes: Dear Agony Aunts and Uncles:I have been in a relationship for the past three years that is constantly deteriorating. He is unnattentive to my needs and cannot communicate on any kind of emotional level. Intimacy doesn't exsist between us and sex happens twice a month if I'm lucky. I have tried to tell him to go and see a doctor and he just brushes it off. He is also 9 years younger than myself. I have also tried to tell him how I feel through tears, calmness and finally anger and nothing works. I now am in a position where all I feel is resentment and loneliness. He said things would change when we moved to a new home and things are worse. My days are filled with thoughts of how to break up and I think I'm hanging on because of the children. (not his) I feel life is passing by and this is how the rest will feel.I have no-where to go and feel so trapped, what should I do?

This book has great insight into how to mend a relationship and how to build it on a strong foundation.
It will guide and teach you on how to see differently and to see from others perspective so that you gain an understanding and with this understanding you can save your relationship and home.
May I also suggest individual, family, and couples counseling. The children are in this home and can pick up on all the tensions and will know that there is lack of love, trust, respect.
Heal yourself and work on strengtheing your family.
FORGIVE.
Best of wishes.
*hugs*
