Dear Queenie,
Before we were married my husband was affectionate, loving and wanted sex all the time. Now that we are married he has changed all that and hardly pays me any attention at all. But he still gets mad if other men even look at me, never mind if they try to get friendly.
Queenie, isn’t it part of a husband’s job to make his wife feel loved and cherished like the wedding vows say?—Neglected wife
Dear Wife,
Yes, of course it is – and it is also a part of a wife’s job to make her husband feel loved and cherished, so I hope you are keeping up your end of the bargain.
However, people tend to present the best side of themselves when courting a prospective spouse, although the true person may be quite different, and then the true personality comes out after the ceremony.
Professional marriage counselling might help you, especially if you can persuade your husband to go with you. But if he will not, go by yourself to learn how to cope with him and what, if anything, you can do to improve your situation.
