After 20 years my wife understands more now than she did at the beginning when we first met. I try my best to understand her difficulty in understanding me. There really is no way to make a person understand unless they want to go through the process of educating themselves.

I'm in a down slope right now and it is not easy for us but I thank her for the times she is willing to listen to me when I need to talk and I try not to be a burden for her. Having these kind of places where I can go and talk about it helps me a great deal.
