Reply to comment by Stellaaahhhh in [30M][31F] Husband won't communicate by Panic_Pixie

The reason I've been reluctant to take that jump is it's really not feasible. He makes about half what I do, and can't afford the rent on the apartment without me. And I really can't split my pay between a hotel and the apartment. Neither of us have family in the area, so that's not really an option, either.

Ugh. In that case, maybe figure out an informal break. Clean your own space, fix your own food, do your own thing. And leave him to do the same. I'm not saying don't even talk, but try to step back. Let him know what you're doing though.

I will try, but we are in a one bedroom apartment, and there's really not much space. Thank you for the advice.

That's perfect then. He believes you won't leave. Prove him wrong so he wakes up and realises he needs you.
