Dealing with a needy and insecure husband
My husband and I have been married only 5 months and we are in counseling. He is driving me nuts; his neediness and insecurities are exhausting me. I do all I can to be a good wife and mother to his two boys. I take care of our home, cook, and never say no to his husbandly needs, even at 5 a.m.
I never go out at night with friends, and the only time I do go anywhere is to run to the store and even then, if I am not back exactly when I say I will be, he is upset. I don't know what to do any longer. He was not this way when we were dating. I do all the things his first wife did not do and am always there. He says I never spend time with him. He wants constant affection and conversation. Frankly, it is tiring me emotionally.
What do I do?
