Rebuilding Connection: Addressing Distance and Lack of Interest in Marriage

Question
Hi my name is Angela and im 22 years old. I have been married for 5 1/2 months and eveything was going great up until about a month ago. It seems like my husband doesnt have any interest in me anymore. I understand that he works and wants to come home to take a nap I dont have a problem with that its just that when he does come home from work he goes right to the bedroom to either take a nap or play his video game. THe only time he comes out is to eat supper then right back in the bedroom he goes. If I want to have sex then I ahve to go to bed with him which is like 8:30 9:00pm and Its hard for me to go to bed that early so then we dont end up having sex because I wont go to bed with him. I work early sometime and that requires me to get up at 4:15am to be to work at 4:45am when I try to go to bed all he wants to do is have sex and he knows I have to get up early and then he gets mad if I dont want to have sex so he gets out of bed and goes out to the living room. I dont think that is fair. The last time I tried to start sex he just pushed me away and told me to leave him alone he does that alot to me and it really hurts my feelings. I dont want to think that he is cheating on me but what should I think and what should I do? PLEASE HELP ME! I dont want my marriage to fall apart

Answer
Hi Angela~

It sure seems that something isn't quite right with him.  He shouldn't be treating you with such disrespect either.  It could be very possible he's thinking of cheating or worse yet, has already done it.  At this point it's hard to tell.  Only he know why he's acting this way.

You should suggest some marriage counseling to him, if he's willing.  This way you can work on whatever issues and problems there are in the marriage.  Other than that, truthfully I'm not sure what to suggest to you.
