I hear you and I have been married to the same man for twenty four years this April, and with in the last five or six years he has become so negative that it literally drives me crazy "to the point of near insanity" - but life goes on and I am hoping that he will lighten up after the boys (ages 25 & 20) are actually standing on their own two feet with a job and place of their own.

I will not give on this relationship, even though I feel like it at times, as I really do love my husband and I know my life would not be the same with out him in it to share all my hopes and dreams with.
