Relationship Struggles with OTR husband
by Angelise
(Colorado )
My fiancé has been a otr driver for almost a year and we recently just had a baby girl but I feel like our relationship has been struggling for quite sometime!
We have had our fair share of ups and downs yet I am kinda at a stand still!! I try and do every possible thing to make his weekends home as easy as possible!!
Get his laundry done, groceries, make sure the bills are paid on time and just be as supportive as possible yet it still seems like it's not enough!! When he comes home he is usually on the internet or a trucking forum and struggles to have simple conversations with me.
I know it has to be quite an adjustment yet it's not only him. I don't know if my expectations are too high for family time when he comes home or what?? I don't expect anything big just quality time together!! He just always seems so distanced and it's making me want to pull away!!
I feel alone, I have tried so much and every time I bring it up he gets upset.. I appreciate him more than anything and I tell him that but it scares me .. just would like to know if any of you ladies have gone through this ??
