My husband spends his time and money on friends only drinking. He is out from morning and returns home at night. If I ask him why he spends time with his friends he gets angry and states that --He should not stick all the time to his wife. He does not have any responsibilities even towards his child, does not spend even half an hour with her. Sometimes I feel he is just useless.

Is counseling an option.

I am unsure of your complete situation because you are from india?

Is divorce even an option?

It does not sound like he is much of an husband or parent. How long has this been going on for?

I was asking you more questions, then I would have been able to give a better answer. You need to put more information in your regular post in order for anybody to come up with better answer.

Having sex is not love, if that is what it is about then that will explain why your marriage is not working. Is counseling an option? Communication and being able to talk to your partner is important. It does not sound like communication is happening and that every time you try he shuts you down by getting mad, am I right?

I hope you get some help with your marriage and hope that you both learn to communicate in ways that will help your marriage. Good luck.

It sounds like you have a roommate more than a husband. Try and sit down and talk to him calmly. Maybe before he goes out with his friends. If he is out all day drinking, then he maybe drunk when he gets home and that is no time to talk.
Have you considered that he is an alcoholic?
Sometimes, when people get stressed about various things in life - they resort to just hiding from the problem. Like, if money is tight and you are a stay at home mom. He could feel like the burden of carrying the load of his family is too much. He stays away because it is a reminder of this. Is that right? No.
Communication is key in every relationship. Talk to him, let him know how you feel.
Good Luck.
