Thread: Feeling down today

I have been having some issues with my marriage and don't know what to do. I have only been married for 3 years and already feeling like I want to get out. He has changed a lot since we said "I do". This is not my first marriage. The first one was for twenty-one years total. I am wondering if my now husband knew too much about me before we got married and now he thinks I will just pick up where I left off with the things that I did for my first husband. My mother asked me how things are going and I just said "okay I guess" and all she had to say was "you just expect too much, people are not perfect". I realize that but she has know idea what is going on at my house because she never visits and I never talk to her unless it is me initiating the call. She never calls. I wonder and have wondered most of my life if she even truly cares. My first husband always said that she didn't give a about me. I always thought it was another one of his forms of isolation but now I'm beginning to wonder. Anyway, I am really confused and down in the dumps today because once again I feel that no one seems to understand or care and left feeling like there is something wrong with me. Mom always says some of the strangest things that I just don't get. Like one time, she said that maybe her then boyfriend might like someone like me better. That was about one of the weirdest things I had heard because the man was about old enough to be my father and nothing but a drunk. I thought that was so messed up. I don't know. Maybe I am messed up. Someone please explain to me what it is that is wrong with my mother and why she doesn't love me like I think she should. A lot of my friends mothers are not like this and call all the time and seem to be caring and compassionate.
