I used to be quite independent and travelled extensively and lived alone for years before i met my husband. A lot changed after i got married..
I love my husband. Maybe a little too much. Sometimes i feel like my world revolves around him. I reach home first and the rest of the time is spent just waiting for him to get back home. All i want to do is spend time with him. When he’s not with me, i worry about him. “Would he have eaten? Is he driving safe? Is he okay?”
I feel like i’ve been neglecting myself and my loved ones. I moved to the country my husband lives and havent made any real friends yet. I dont do any activities by myself or with people other than my husband.
Meanwhile i’m only a part of my husband’s life. I know he loves me too as much as i do, but he makes time for his friends and family everyday, does things without me.. basically has worlds other than with me.
I feel like i’m too attached and i’m seeking therapy. However, progress is slow, and i still miss him when i try to do things alone. Such a strange thing… just a few years ago i did everything alone and enjoyed it and now i cant. Any books to help decode my feelings and find myself again?
