I feel i'm invisible
      27/05/2009 12:30

I am 50 and have been married for 24 years. Perhaps it is my age or my life stage but I am feeling more and more down.
My youngest daughter will go to Uni in September. My husband works long hours in a stressful job. When he is at home he is often pre-occupied with work. He is not a chatty person and we do not have many conversations. He often does not remember what I have said to him. This makes me feel uninteresting and invisible.
I am wondering what my life will be like when both my children have left home. We don't have any mutual friends. Our life is boring. I am wondering where is the companionship in my marriage. Perhaps my expectations of marriage are wrong.
