I have been with my husband now for going on 8 years. We have been married for 2 almost. I work full time as a caregiver and a house manager. I love "Ray" my husband with all my heart. The only time he ever shows affection towards me is when "HE" is in the mood. Doesn't matter if I am. When I am and say anything he tells me that I blow it by saying anything. In the middle of the night I'll reach out and touch him lightly and he pulls away from me or he grunts at me and asks me what I'm doing. I just need him to hold me for a few minutes and not make it always just a minute after sex. I need alot of comforting right now, I am having surgery on my hand, my mom just beat lung cancer, I lost visitation of our grandson, he didn't. I really just need to be held. If I Say something that he thinks that is wierd he says something that makes me feel like I'm stupid, like everything I do and say is wrong. I don't know what to do. He gets mad if I cry, unless its over my dads death or my moms sickness and that's it, if I cry about anything else he yells at me....CAN ANYONE HELP ME TOO PLEASE AND HURRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Sounds like you have lost the romance in your relationship. It may be hard with him treating you the way he does, but try going above and beyond by doing something extra special and romantic for him. Go away for the weekend just the two of you. (ex. bed and breakfast, or a spa getaway for two, if he's the outdoors type how about a fishing trip or camping trip just you and him)

After spoiling him for a while and he still doesn't act any diffrent tell him how you feel and get his oppinion on how to improve the relationship. You may find counseling to be your final resort. Be strong it may not happen over night but it can really open up a relationship and may be the key.

That must be horrible, I feel for you I really do.

Counseling, it really does work. Sounds like has grown bored. Believe me it has nothing to do with you, people just grow bored male and female.
