Signs Your Husband Could be Unhappily Married


Marriage is often described as a union of two souls and like many good things that have it’s both pros and cons similarly, marriage too has its fair share of benefits and burdens. Though everyone wants to lead a happily married life still, owing to various reasons, people face unharmonious (short and long) time with their spouses. It may include both the husband and wife but in this article, we will focus on the signs to identify if a husband is passing through an unhappily phase in his married life or not.
Renowned marriage counsellor Shivani Misri Sadhoo shares 6 such signs which indicate that your husband is passing through an unhappy marriage.  How to identify these signs are given below? This may help especially for a wife to deal with your husband effectively.

1. Prefers to spend time alone:
One of the indications is when your husband starts to spend more time alone with himself or he starts going out with his friends or colleagues rather than spending time with you. He could be unhappy for numerous reasons. It could be because of your behaviour or attitude. It could also be caused by the way you behave with him in the household or outside.

2. Rarely compliments:
A happy and caring husband will always appreciate his wife’s efforts. Whatever stuff it is, the husband will give compliments. However, if he no longer cares about the things that you do there could be something wrong. Something might be on his mind or he just isn’t happy.

3. Lack of Quality Time:
Spending quality time between you two will no longer be as much as it was before. He cares more about his hobby, job or his friends and colleagues. Quality time is important to strengthen the bond between a husband and a wife.

4. Doesn’t Express His Love:
A marriage is usually, filled with love. Giving compliments, appreciation, hugs, kisses and other forms of affections are normal. But if your husband begins to eliminate these things from the marriage, then that could be an indication that he’s unhappy too.

5. Doesn’t Care:
Your marriage can’t be stable and harmonious if your husband is acting as if he doesn’t care. Giving banters or throwing tantrums for whatever you are doing and looking down on you are all forms of contempt. He will always seek to find fault in you.

6. Body Language:

You can feel how unhappy your husband is from his body language that he shows daily. He rarely smiles, frowns or turns his back towards you or trying to maintain a distance from you so he doesn’t have to see you or touch you.
