My husband left me in July, said he did not feel that i was supportive of him, we have 3 children under 10, I did not stand behind him with displine, i would not make them pick up after each other, house was not as clean as he would like it to be. He says he loves me only as the mother of his children, He still comes over, we spend the nights together in each others arms, But he only feels resentment for me. But i feel so much more when he touches me. I still love him and want our marriage to work. After he spends the night sometimes i feel like he is pushing me away, He has been under a lot a lot of stress at work, he will be 41 soon. Any advice?

You seem very clear on your part of the situ regarding lack of support for his discipline. Is this actually the only discipline in the house"

Is the "guilt" of the problem of this situ only resting on your shoulders and somehow this is not the whole story?

Is his "discipline" harsh or something that you shy away ...

Or have you identified in yourself a lack of personal discipline for yourself and it has come to a critical point?

You sound as if you see and know "stuff" that needs working on in yourself. Go for it. read everything you can here and keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Follow a few "threads" here and maybe even on "Emotional Needs" and see how some others are approaching their situations - but most of all start with the basics.
