hi gg,
I'm sorry that your family is not more open with their feelings, and I hope that they DO have lots of love/caring/affection for you, even if they don't show it often enough on the outside.And I really am sorry that your hubby is not being supportive. It's always a risk to "dis" someone's spouse, esp. since things always (hopefully!) get better, but he DOES sound like he's acting more on the jerky side, and less on the nice side these days. You truly deserve more, and I hope he can learn to give it to you.
Couples therapy could be a great thing if he's open to it...
Do you have any friends who could help shoulder some burden? Even if it's a risk, do you think you MIGHT consider being open and honest and downright needy with some family members?
I hope things get better soon. Take care of yourself!
