life help: i have been having a lot of trouble with my life. - Help.com

Have you tried counseling? Couples counseling would be better, but if he is unwilling (or not available) you should go on your own. Have you tried to tell him how you feel? He may be willing to work with you to change, but you will never know if you keep it inside and don’t talk to him about what your needs are.

Spend some time thinking about what you need, and what you and he could do to meet those needs. Then try to talk to him about it.

Well, if your husbands job keeps him away & leaves you at home, why not do some volunteering or go to school or get a part-time job. Are you crafty? Perhaps you can take up a hobby to keep yourself occupied to where you won’t dwell so much on your situation. Then when your husband is home, you can share with him what you’ve been doing while he was away working.
I’d also encourage you to talk with your husband about how you’re feeling. He is your partner and should be willing to work with you and help you.

Ok. Yes, I think marriage counseling will help. He has to participate, because his absence is causing thesd problems. Is he open to a job change? You can’t have a happy marriage is one is away all the time. Geez, I wish I could help you more. I hope things will work out for you. Good luck.

Dont give up just get on your marriage. If you can get the councilling, do so. there are millions of people who can help you.

If this doesnt work. you need to tell your husband you are not happy. and you have to be selfish and think of yourself. do you want to be living the life you are now in 10years time?

only you can change it. you must find the strength from wherever you can get it. whether you find it in you, in your family, friends. you have to find that strength. and fight for this marriage. and if it turns out you cant have what you want. then you have to fight for your human right to be happy!
