Long story short, we know that it takes different things for each of us to feel loved and at times we give what the other needs but life sometimes takes over and bad habits are easy to return. In addition, I have a constant battle with my husbands jealousy (read previous posts). He's gotten MUCH better but I think whenever there is an episode I stop loving him the way HE needs to be loved, his tank then becomes empty, he becomes insecure, starts with the accusations, then I feel empty, we fight, we get back on track and the cycle begins again. We both love each other and have a commitment to this marriage. I think we're just tired of it being so hard. We want some peace and the other to understand. We're willing to do the work but need help putting it into practice. Any ideas?
