Good start

Today, my husband and I went to our first counseling sessions, where the main focus was communication. When the therapist called us in together to discuss techniques we could use at home, my husband looked around, rolled his eyes, and responded with, "Uh huh" to every question. FML

Therapist: Sir, are you an idiot? Husband: Uh huh.

it was their first one. it was worth a shot. that's respectable. it's sad when people give up without even trying

I agree with the idea that getting a new husband is dumb. He could be worse. And for that matter, I don't think op is trying. She's getting annoyed at her husbands reactions, which says to me she's not even listening to the counselor. And people, quite a lot of husbands do work overtime to try and bring in enough. And then women get quibbly at them.

Awwww im sorry! Be happy he actually WENT to counseling with u! I hope it works out

No offense I don't believe in marriage counseling what between you 2 stats between u 2 it's kind of messed up to go to a marriage counselor who isn't in ur situation or ever has been to get u guys on track and not just that only u 2 can make it work and it's free u dnt need a shrink

So what do you think about the thousands of marriages counseling has saved? It's better to get an unbiased perspective of issues in your marriage to help you figure it out. Otherwise most of the time the husband thinks he's right, the wife thinks she's right, and nothing gets solved. Counseling absolutely SAVED my marriage. Had we not started going we may not have survived. Our therapist is married and works with lots of couples so she DOES understand our problems. Without her my husband would never have changed his unhealthy behaviors.

Sounds like he really isnt interested in improving your marriage. :-(

Ya he doesnt care haha stop forcing him to do something he does care about

I seriously hope people dont take life advice from the FML comments regarding relationships. "Divorce! dump him! get a new one!" The generation of instant gratification.

I'm going to assume that you stopped putting out (for one reason or another) and he is (probably) having an affair.

Not all guys are selfish pigs you know. Some actually understand what being faithful means and take their marriage vows seriously. It doesn't matter if the wife stops "putting out". The man just has to suck it up and deal with it.

It probubly wasnt a smart idea to be married to a teenager now was it...
