So...the husband has said we will go to marital counseling. I agreed to this in hopes that perhaps having a third party familiar with my feelings and our situation will help him better understand. I call the counseling center to make an appt. with my counselor and turns out she's skipped town...Ha!
She mentioned something at my last appt. about considering different counseling positions but it was something she was doing pros and cons on. But she didn't speak about it for long so it left my mind.
I'm scared of going back now. I can't not go but on a military post I'm very leery of finding an open-minded counselor again. Meanwhile, the husband is walking around in a good mood, being very affectionate (despite my response), and very nice...which of course isn't bad in and of themselves but he just seems so smug like he knows hes 'foiled my plans' so he can rest easy. I just feel like hes pulled the rug from under my feet.
I love him, I always will but I don't know...this just smacks of manipulation and it wouldn't be the first time hes done that to me. I don't know...

I am in a monogamous relationship. One riddled with problems, which may be part of the reason I'm so open to an attraction to another person. I have been trying very hard to fix things with my girlfriend for the past couple of months, but I don't feel she is receptive and it's getting very frustrating.
I'm sorry your counselor has skipped town looking for pirate booty.
Of course, I might be a bit biased, as I pretty much hate all headshrinkers.
