What can I do if my spouse won´t spend time with me?

What can I do if my spouse won't spend time with me?

When one spouse starts spending less and less time at home or is away with friends or family many start wondering what is going on. Some become jealous, others more demanding, still others become bitter, or perhaps they too start spending less time at home. This type of marriage is common in our society. If this is occurring in your marriage consider the following questions:
a) Do I know why we aren't spending time together?
b) Is there something that I am doing that causes my spouse to not want to be with me?
c) How can I talk with my spouse and let them know that I want to spend time with him/her?
d) What can I do to create more time together with my spouse?
e) How can I show my spouse my love for them so they will know I want to spend time with them?

These questions are designed to have you think about how you can create a different and better atmosphere so your spouse will be more likely to respond to your request. Ultimately you cannot force someone to spend time with you. What you can do is create the environment so they will want to spend time with you.
