Emotionally unavailable spouse isn’t a picnic. Are you seeing a therapist? Is he seeing one?
His reasoning is that he really wanted to do something different and if he went right back into the same kind of job he would be miserable. I agree that is the case but he didn’t also seem that happy not working. I am seeking out therapy and have encouraged him to do the same. We have both done marriage and individual therapy in the past.
