5. He thinks he's a psychologist

Argh. Did the words "marriage counseling" come up? No. He's also a dry drunk, which mean he's even though doesn't drink, he'll continue to have several unfortunate characteristics. He mentions unemployment, it would be interesting to know what caused it. He sounds very needy, and far more interested in his own dilemmas--one of which is his relationship with his wife, than he's wifes actual issues.

Since we don't know her side of the story, we can only guess; I'm a person who completely understands emotional detachment and being "cold" and the reasons why. Yet my husband and I constantly flirt and play, and have a happy marriage.

My guess is that he's a fuck up and is blaming his wife, who probably does have her own issues-- one of which is an over-analytic, finger-pointing chickenshit of a husband, who used an advice column" to address very serious marital problems, with little apparent insight of his contributions to them.
