I agree with the lady that thinks he's suffering from depresssion. He's in trouble and it's kind of up to you to find a way to fix it. It is not normal for him to withdraw like this. He is in a world of hurt and does not know how to help the problem. He may not even recocnize there is a problem. Get help for him before there is a tradgety of some kind.

Hi
It sounds like his suffering with depression. And being alone with you would mean conversation, and he dont want to talk about anything which will make him feel worse, or inadequate. So asking for other people to tag along will give no time for anything serious. With the sex, his probally actually not in the mood, but does it ayway in hope to keep you happy. Im sure he loves you just as much as you love him, but his got himself into a rutt. If you love him as much as you say you do, then be there for him good times and bad, why dont you make a nice meal for him, run a hot bath, give him a little pampering ( with no strings attached) i.e no sex on the cards. and he may well relax, feel less stressed and start to come out of his shell. Remember when you first got together? did you enjoy pampering your man? have you stopped doing that over time? because sometimes when we get married we forget the little things that used to make us happy, the very things that made us want to marry eachother in the first place. Dont give up on him just yet, there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and together you will get through it and be an even stronger couple. If you really really can not take no more, then I would suggest you sit him down and tell him, that unless he changes his ways, and takes you seriously then you want a divorce. Because its not fair on you to feel depression either, if you feel you can have a happier life without him, then maybe it's time for you to move on. But I would try one last time, because you have spent many years together, is it worth throwing it all away just yet?
