I can understand why many women are unhappy. They say it takes two hands to clap but sometimes one hand claps harder than the other.
I've been married for 16 years, my children are 13 and 11. Since I gave birth to my second child, my husband began to ignore me and he seldom look at me or say anything. I felt like a piece of transparent glass right in front of him. He'd wake up, go to work, come home, watch TV and lights out at 10pm after the news. Does this sound familiar?
Look myself in the mirror and asked what's wrong? Was it the way I looked or what I did wrong by giving birth to two children (his idea, not mind). For 10 years, I became lonely and sad. I worked the same hours as him, did all the house work, child care after work, matched every dollar he brought home (every expense was shared 50/50). I asked myself if this is what I deserve. I started to widen my circle of friends, take up dancing, read, meet friends for dinner.
He started to think I was seeing someone else. Tracked me down every few hours, read my phone messages, phoned my office a zillion times .... became so insecure. Almost to the verge of raping me. I was terrified.

Dear Jennifer,
I will pray for your friends. I know by experience that miscommunication or lack of communication can destroy the best of marriages. It seems that their marriage can be saved, shall they find a marriage counselor who could help them with communicating better. May God bless your friends with finding a way to rekindle thir love for one another. Thank you for praying for me as well, since I am going through the same situation. Sincerely, Helene.
