I am the one who has to do everything to make our life together work
DEAR DEIDRE: I AM fed up being the one who has to do everything to make our life together work.
I’m a single woman of 42 and my partner, who is the same age, is divorced.

I will have sex with him whenever he wants it but if I want sex and he’s not in the mood, he shoves me off him or turns his back on me in bed.
If we have an argument, I will beg forgiveness even though he’s in the wrong.
He’s not romantic at all and, when I try to be, he pushes me away and says, “Just stop, will you?” He never cuddles or kisses me. Should I end the relationship?

DEIDRE SAYS: I can’t see why not, though maybe I can see why he’s divorced. Take a step back and think about what this guy is giving you.
Only he can decide to change and buy in to your relationship. If he doesn’t, a future with him looks grim. Why have you put up with it for this long? My e-leaflet on Addictive Love could help.
