As far as your relationship with your husband is concerned, some of the dysfunction you are dealing with in your family could very well be something taking place in your relationship too. Yet, it could most definitely be affecting/getting in the way of your developing or maintaining a healthier relationship.

Also, when it comes to your husband stepping away from engaging in a sexual relationship with you, it could be that his libido is off, especially if he is 40+. Women believe that lack of libido means lack of love, not true. And many men distance because they are embarrassed by their issue.
Good article. Thank you so much for thinking of me!

I'm so happy to say that I don't think anyone in my family was the designated scapegoat.

There was a father, who cracked up because of his disappointment from his father, and died. A mother, who tried to hold it together, but just created an illusion. An oldest daughter, who was a disappointment to the mother, because she was the opposite of the illusion and refused to play the game. A middle daughter, who had no sense of self at all, and floated off as far as she could run from the mother and the illusion. Then there was me, the youngest, the 'last hope' for the illusionist.
