Women like men need diversity, change, and excitement just like men.

Relationships do take two people to lead some days and follow in others. Based upon your reflection it seemed you husband did not feel safe enough with you or the family he was around to be open and live life.

I don’t know if that plays into the WTF happened when you have a man who actively listens, puts the relationship and his partner first and then gets to watch his efforts implode massively.
