Feel like you don't matter?

Ever Feel Like You Aren’t Important to Your Husband?

Have you ever felt like you don’t really matter to your husband? Like he never seems to pay attention when you’re talking? Or that looking at his phone or something else is more important?

I feel your pain- unseen- lonely- disappointed… Not all the time- but enough that it gnaws at you sometimes. I feel your pain because I’ve been there. Sometimes I’m still there.

Let me ask you a question. How do you respond or react when that happens? Do you get angry? Annoyed? Are you exasperated? Then what? Do you ”let him have a piece of your mind”? Do you clam up, withdraw? Do you sit and seethe? Do you point it out to him in a critical way?

I would like to ask you a couple of questions.

· How is the way you respond to him helping to build a bridge between you?

· Are you expecting him to build one to reach you yet you don’t do the same?

If feeling you don’t matter is something you’re struggling with, I invite you to reflect on those questions the next time you are feeling like you are unseen, unheard or unimportant. How can you help to build a bridge? What would kindly, respectfully asking him for what you need sound like? Feel like? What might be possible if you try?

I work with women just like you to help them find a new path forward. A path into closer, more connected relationships. If you’d like to talk about what that would look like for you, click here. I'd love to meet you.
