Hi, I’ve been married 9 years and after years of fertility problems and treatments we have finally been blessed with our wonderful son.
I noticed our marriage has been getting worse since I fell pregnant. My husband and I used to share household chores and spend time together and although he has always been overweight he was motivating himself to get fitter so we can enjoy more activities together. Since I fell pregnant he was less and less interested in keeping fit and now has developed pre-diabetes, he is the heaviest he has ever been and isn’t interested in improving his diet. His father died recently of diabetes and this hasn’t made him think of taking responsibility for his health and making changes to make sure he is around for his son. He is tired constantly and spends almost all free time on his iPad. He uses tv as his go-to when with our son and never suggests taking him to the park or any activities. He does sometimes play with him and that’s lovely to see but I wish he did it more often.
Everything seems to be my fault in the relationship and I now arrange all the household cleaning, organising and manage finances apart from he deals with his car and takes the bins out and will go to the shops. I feel like he is a guest in our own home and I can’t talk to him as he gets angry. I am worn out, I realise I will be at fault in areas but it surely cannot be all my doing? He doesn’t seem a very Christian husband and has changed since we married. If he was like he is now when we met I certainly would not have married him. Is there a way to save our marriage?
