I feel miserable

Postby AK777 » Thu Sep 01, 2005 3:39 am

I love him and he loves me, is that good enough for a relationship? He and I are so imcompatiable. We are from different countries, carrying different point of view about everything, and I don't express myself well in English that depresses me most. I got depressed all the time, probably because of these. Also, I don't like to fell likeinferior to him, and yet I don't want to. He is a typical man, growing with a single mother, so he is insensitive, impatiet to woman and selfish. He treates me very well, but he has an attitude to me that discomfort me. He sees future about us, but I don't. I always think of ending it because I've gotten enough pressure. He told me not to give it up. He told me to put down all the negative thought and thus we would be fine. I am not sure if this is true, or will be true. I think I need to gain some confidence about myself and us... I sometimes feel happy to be loved, but most of the time I feel miserable. He loves me, but he is not very good at showing his emotion. Is he that indifferent? He can ignore me when we are apart for weeks. This makes me so sad. But for him, he thinks this is a good thing for us to calm down.

You said that you love him...are you sure it is him that you love? Maybe you love the idea of BEING in love with someone.

You have listed many problems in this relationship and it appears to me that you are getting hurt, while he runs the whole show. I shall simply advise you to do whatever you honestly think will be best for you in the long-term.

...and use your head when deciding this, not your heart.

You sound very much like my wife...so much so that I'm a bit nervous... :)

Do you have any of the same interests?

What in life makes you happy? What do you think would make you even more happy? Is there something that you can change in yourself that would make you feel better?

You had mentioned that your English was not good enough to communicate your true feelings...is there an English class nearby that you can go to? Maybe you'll find some people like yourself there.

Your husband would probably like to see you more happy, more often. You might have to find that happiness by your own efforts though.
