Somewhere in the last 30 years he&#8217;s made a billion new friends and I&#8217;ve been bumped down and down and down and now there are over a billion other people that vie for his attention and I am lost and alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If it weren&#8217;t for God I would be alone. I am not alone, God is here with me. Keeping me sane. But that&#8217;s a hard road for me, human interaction isn&#8217;t necessary as much as it is for him, but as it goes all MY old friends fell to the wayside when everyone moved away to somewhere else, they got married, I got married no more contact and it didn&#8217;t matter at the end of the day. I still crave intellectual stimulation with other NT types of people. Sad and sadder, saddest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These days the only friend I had was my hubby, and my children were familiar and I like them, love them, but I am left with the only thing I am  being a holy moldy crazy cat lady.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Online friends. None really, nope. I used to &#8230; hubby doesn&#8217;t realize how he impacted that for me. Anyway I might as well live in a cabin in the middle of nowhere. Internet is a hopeful place that never delivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am an INTp or as socionics call it: ILI-Ni  &#8211; NT<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hubby is ESFp or as socionics calls it: SEE  &#8211; SF<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are duals. We have had a good relationship, but the last 10 years has killed that more and more because of beer friends. That&#8217;s the final death knell for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have up and downs as dual do. In this we are in that alful part before making up, but now it&#8217;s a making up that can&#8217;t happen for over a week because of some dumb beer event and then going to FL for the week for work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When he comes home he has no time for me, gotta watch football and drink beer. Both are anathema to me and he knows it. Every living weekend it&#8217;s the same thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Weekday, oh, I have work to do. Can&#8217;t talk to me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am just a person that happens to have a female body, and that is ALL he cares about, not me, just the outward body. Ewwww.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I used to be my husbands friend.
