My husband barely gives me attention we use to do everything together. Now all he does is hang out with his friends and when i ask when's our time is we hang out for maybe 30 mins intill somebody knocks on the door then he's outside all day with them. This is getting on my nerves and i feel like being on my own it feels like it already being alone all the time i even talk to him about this he said he would stop blah blah blah a bunch of bull. What would you do if you were me?? i think maybe he has somebody else what do you think???

What can I do next?

How long have you been married? Do you have children? Just wondering....Honestly? Try seriously seducing him....a lot and often.... I don't care WHO he is. That works! Oh...and food. If you can cook, cook him something delicious that he really likes. If you can't cook well, learn how to make something delicious that he'll like. Combine food and sex for a man, and they can't resist. But don't make a point of pointing out what you did. Just do it, casually. He'll notice. Trust me! :P It doesn't mean it's another woman. Guys and girls just get wierd..and bored sometimes I think.

I think you need to start finding yourself, and stop worrying about him. Why would you ever jump to the conclusion he is cheating? Get some hobbies, a job or education, and friends of you own. You will like yourself better, and so will he.

I don't think he has anyone else. He's just selfish. Read SammyJo's post.

First, you guys need to learn to communicate! He should listen to you, no matter what you have to say--and you to him. Whether it's something big or small, you should be each others' best friends. I'm sure I bug my husband all the time with mundane things, but he listens and cares. Start there.

If I was insecure I would think he was cheating but if you want and need to turn it around stop nagging him. Laura J. hit the nail on the head. If you have kids, get them out of the house and then make your husband a very tired and very happy man. Apologise to him for all the nagging and then tell him the specific things you respect about him. Feed his starving ego, physical appetite and his sexual appetite too. If it was possible for you to take some lessons in things like cooking (taking your culinary skills to the next level) or bellydancing (taking your skills in enticing him to another level), I know he wouldn't find his friends quite so appealing. Feed his ego and need for respect and you will get the love and attention he needs. Remember to be honest and sincere and it won't hurt to mention some of these things in front of his friends.

For instance a friend of mine and her husband were trying out a new restaurant, the menu contained items listed as Sexy 1, Sexy 2 and Sexy 3. When the waiter came to take their order, she said she didn't need sexy 1 because she had sexy 1 right there with her. Needless to say they had a "very lovely evening".

If you didn't have a shot gun wedding, you husband choose you and he really would prefer you over anything else but you have to do the work to continue to be a soft place for him to land and a conforting place for him to be. I really hope this helps. I know it works on my husband.
