Maybe you can try and do small activities together?

My parents have been together about as long as you have. They don't do a LOT together, but they set out a period of time everyday to watch t.v./movie/talk about politics. They will also make dinner for one another sometimes, too. My sister and I don't live with them, either. (We're 19 and 22 respectively)

My dad is a recovering alcoholic (17-18 years?) and he volunteers a lot. It bugged my mom in the beginning but she realized it helped in his recovery and self-worth.

Also your son is old enough that he should respect both of his parents. If he can't follow your house rules you should kick him out.
