Hello Anonymous,
I hear the pain you are experiencing from your husband’s neglect. I hear you want him to pursue you, at least some times, right?
I want to acknowledge you for planning time together despite his lack of initiative. That is a huge win in that you know what you want and you make it happen.
I would like to invite you to try the next step on the same lines. How would it be to make it more logical and express your desire to him?
For example, I love it when you initiate activities and time together with me! I have been missing that. To start, I want to count that you initiate five times every week. That would be fun!
Now, it can be small things. Every marriage is different. This may not work for you but a client I am working with started making a chart on the refrigerator and put checks every morning and evening when her husband hugged her. Cross for missed hugs.
It became fun for her husband to score! He learned a new habit. Now, he does it without the chart. And even if they had fights, husband skipped a few hugs but made up by starting hugging again. She is working on including more new habits in their relationship now.
I know it doesn’t feel as good to get affection after asking for it but remember it is an intermediary step. These done consistently become part of the relationship.
And there are many variations to these strategies to customize to each marriage.
There is a lot to explore here!
Don't leave him, just be at his side no matter what, try something to make both of you spark back in love. Give him things of what you expect him to do with you. You initiate first, because we are all human being and not all time always happy.
Finally remember that in building a happy marriage, it's Give and take.
