Husband barely spends any time with me! My husband & I are young married couple. We have been married a year next week.?

Lately my husband comes home from work gets on his ipad, watch Netflix, or plays a video.game. The only time we spend time together is when we eat dinner, have bible study at home, or watch tv, or go to church. I feel like here physically, but not here with me sometimes. All he's says is tired from work to do anything just wants to relax. I tried talking with him, but he says & stressed. Then he complains about I get to sit down all day at work so I just let him rest. When I ask if he wants to go out the answer is always no. Our sex life has declined to once a week. I have phone password & Facebook. I have found no evidence of cheating. I'm hurt he won't spend time with me. I'm not ugly woman either. Next Sunday is our anniversary. We talk about it. He says has a surprise for me. I'm planning on making it special. We haven't the best year for newlyweds my husband has anger issues. Lately he sleeps a lot. I'm so sad. I tried talking with him. I fake a smile when people ask about the newlyweds life & fake laugh. When were out in public he treats me great. Then we get home he doesn't spend time with me. Please someone help. I'm scared losing interest. If I try to have sex he pushes me off, turns away, fake sleep. I mostly stopped asking for it. Sometimes he gladly makes love with me. Our sex life is good when we have it. Sometimes I touch him & he gets defensive or roll his eyes when ask for hug & kiss. I see it in his eyes he's unhappy, when I ask he's says e everything fine.

    Find something you can physically do together - no matter how simple: walk, tennis- something. Give him time alone to unwind and after about an hour encourage him out to do whatever the something physical is. If possible, make it in the sunshine. Not every time, but when the mood seems right, tell him how you feel and ask him what improvements he might suggest. Be sure to tell him that he makes you feel good around others. Rather than judge what he tells you, ask him to tell you more about how he feels and explain how he got to the place where he is. There is hope.

    Tell him that YOU are unhappy (with him) and that unless he is willing to go to marriage counseling to honestly discuss the problems, you want a separation.

    You need to read "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus"... it will help you understand why he needs that alone time.

    That bible study and church stuff will cause you problems.
