My new husband prior to our marriage unceremoniously dumped and old girlfriend to marry me. I knew nothing about her prior. Since that time, and during our short honeymoon this woman continually called his cell phone. The problem was not her calls but that he called her back. This continued until this past Monday. The other problem is, he lives in the same town she does, and I live 500 miles away. I don't trust either of them, and he gets angry when I ask if she has called. Also he is incredibly sexually demanding. I try to satisfy him, but he says I dont'desire him if I don;t always give in to him, which is often. I try to be satisfying but get tired. We are both over 50. Any suggestions?

Wow, living 500 miles apart is very dangerous to even the best marriages. Why do you live apart?

Yeah <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> What's up with that? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> A marriage where the two people live that far apart sounds more like an "arrangement" than a marriage. I'm guessing it's work related and that you see each other on weekends....ummmmmm...recipe for disaster chere. I've been there done that.

We had been apart for sometime because he wasn't ready for a committed relationship. He called me out of the blue and wanted to finally make a committement. We married. I don't like the weekend thing, and told him so, I told him I'd like to move to his city and live there, it would mean quitting my job, but he seems to not want that and complains that I would be unhappy in his city without my adult children and friends. I told him I would be with him. I agree 500 miles away is too far, but I thought we would be working aggressively to be together. It seems he is fine with the separate lives. I really am not, when I agreed to the marriage I felt, assumed the separation would only be temporary.
