Feel like I’m alone in the world sometimes. I keep seeing ads and videos and things for wives whose husbands are emotionally unavailable or checked out or whatever. But I’m the husband and she is the checked out one or unavailable one. What is there for people like me or situations like mine? Is our situation so abnormal that no one cares? So atypical that there is no help for me or for us? Is anything out there targeted towards me and mine or am I just screwed? Am I alone in this shit?
Fwiw, I feel this way with my girlfriend a lot. It’s not that she is entirely unavailable, but she does avoid being vulnerable very often. I feel like I’m the emotional one who will be completely honest and emotional and she will clam up
