Hello All!
I am looking to see if any of you have had hard times during your spouse's residency and how you dealt with it. I am a SAHM of three young kids and my husband is in his second year of his residency. We have fallen into a pattern that makes me feel like a second-class citizen at home: I cook, clean, take care of the kids, do laundry and do every other thing related to the house. He comes home between 5-6, eats dinner, plays with the kids then calls it a day - he watches movies (with or without me) reads, or just goes directly to bed.
Our sex life is suffering and it's creating a great deal of tension between us. I feel spread out to thin already and can't really give him that emotional support; he feels like we don't connect unless we are sexually active. I also don't ever feel like having sex with him when he hasn't done dishes, laundry or anything else to contribute to the general maintenance of the house. Am I crazy? Any advice? HELP!
