. I'm curious. Is he monosyllabic when you're together or is it only when he's using the phone? The truth is a lot of men become grunting Neanderthals on the phone and they see texts as merely a means of passing on information, as in when to meet and where. If you are going to meet anyway they don't see the point in rambling on for the sake of it. I presume you have told him how it makes you feel when he replies brusquely and if he hasn't changed his style it's unlikely he will. Your option now is to resist texting as frequently and USE texts as he does - to relay messages from A to B . Not very romantic I know but less disheartening when you're not getting the replies you'd like.

A. Difficult for him?? It doesn't sound much fun for you First things first - you can lose the weight with a balanced diet and exercise. Have you tried your loca Weightwatchers? Do it primarily for yourself. I suspect even if you lost the weight it may not stop your husband's porn habit. There are deeper issues which will have to be addressed. You sound like you could do with some support A good friend who can persuade you not t o b e the scapegoat for your husband's 'difficulties' may BE enough for now.
