it depends on the guy

no you are not crazy

I have known lots of couples who got married when they were extremely young and though for the most part they end up ok, at some point one or both end up going through some kind of mid-life crisis. It's like they want to sow all the wild oats they didn't get a chance to before they got married but they still want to have the security of a wife at home. I call it the "cake and eat it syndrome"
I think your husband just want to feel like he's still "got it" that he's still attractive and charming.
I know because I act this way also, I flirt a little and I don't mind hearing a man besides my boyfriend tell me that I am pretty. Especially since the last time he gave me a compliment was a few years ago.
If you still really love him, talk to him before the anger becomes resentment like in my relationship. If you love him, tell him you love him, tell him what you love about him and that it hurts you when he does things like what he is doing because of how it makes you feel. TRUST is the foundation of any good relationship. If you don't have trust... it's going to be a long hard road for you and I hope you won't have to go through that. Good luck and God bless.

I agree with hopeless dork, my spidey sense is tingling, if he was truely interested in them as friends, he would include you with meeting with these "friends" so THEY wouldn't get the wrong impression and know he's only interested in freindship. What anger's me is that his issues have now become your responsibility. If he's not happy he should just come out and say it! Why do we need to make all the tough decisions??

Two years ago things started getting a little rough. He began to disconnect and act very protective of his things

He accepted you as for whom you were. Probably loved the fact you were wordly..

But the last 2 years, there's been not alot there and so he has felt that he has to flurt.

You have stated you "did everything" before you met, yet he married and has been happy for some time.

He chose you.

So what has changed? That's the key.. Something has changed, forget the trust you need to ask yourself, has the bedroom changed? Has the laughter changed? Have you changed, settled into this?

Things have changed and he needs more or else he wouldn't be looking for something.
