Thanks, Leed! I understand that communication is very important and that's why I really want us both to learn to communicate better. My Husband does just say I don't know a lot and it frustrates me so much. I need him to be able to engage me in our conversations. We both need to improve with it. My Husband is very calm and easy-going so because of that we do end our fights and make up quickly. I also think that overall we haven't had too much fights, but lately it's been worse cuz we both have been under a lot of stress due to our jobs. We are both hoping to find new jobs soon since we're unhappy with our jobs. One of my biggest faults is that I am not a patient person at all. It's really tough for me to wait a very long time for something I need or truly want. My Husband is a lot more patient than I am. We seem like total opposites in some ways. I am currently trying to get an appointment with a Masters level therapist that has lower rates for people without Health Insurance and I hope that we can get one soon. I am afraid that we will just keep falling into the same negative patterns. We never seem to go out together on dates anymore so things have been pretty dull and I really hope we can change that. By the way, I am 28 and my Husband is 31 years old.
