Hi. Im 38 and I have been married for almost 6 years now. I have a 10 year old son from my previous marriage. My son has never known his real mother and is under the impression that my wife is his mother. He loves her dearly as any child would and she does not ill-treat him. However, she has always maintained that she does not love him. Lately over the last couple years, things have worsened and she resents him. She feels like she is putting up with an unwanted member in the family and hates the sight of him most of the time. She now has little or no interaction with him and i care for all his needs. He seems to have understood the new equation in the house over the last 6 months or so and keeps away from her as well unless he has to interact. He is a very well mannered and obedient kid and she feels guilty that she is treating him this way. But she feels she cant do anything to change these feelings. Needless to say, my relationship with her is strained and there are many arguments and fights centered around this issue. I try to indulge her as much as i can by taking her out as often as i can (just the 2 of us) and buying her stuff. But this doesn't seem to be helping. I have never sought help or shared this issue with anyone so far. Any advise would be greatly appreciated...
Put the internet to work for you.
