I swear it seems my husband doesn't like to do anything If I suggest an activity he either refuses to do it or goes along and does it then complains. I usually feel tense and nervous because I'm just waiting for him to start complaining about what is "pissing" him off. Last night there was a person coughing behind him which I agree can be annoying, but, there is always something Should I just stop including him in anything or what

Why not ask him what he wants to do? If he says nothing, then tell him.."Well, I guess I will have to think of something then..like it or not!"

There you go.



Also, ask him if he wants to fool around,
I bet his answer is usually yes.

What did ya'll do before you were married?

Give him the ULTIMATE choice...............have fun or else you'll be sorry buster~



Seriously, as someone has already stated, ask him what he likes to do. Also it sounds like he needs to loosen up a lot.

It sounds to me like there is something bugging him when you go out.. You did not give much information.

The obvious thing would be to try and do something he wants to do, and then ease into compromises from that.

If he doesn't want to do anything, ask him if he's ok with you doing it alone. Not everyone is a social creature, that has to be ok too.

What social activity might my husband enjoy?
Maybe he's the type of guy that enjoys watching paint dry or grass grow. Some people just aren't social. My Dad was very much that way and would just as soon sit home and do nothing. I think he felt ill at ease in social situations and it's possible that your husband may be the same way.

maybe some beer league baseball but it is late in the season to join or maybe get him into a bowling team maybe join with him so you guys can go out once a week and have fun

maybe make a date night where you go out to dinner and a movie or go ice skating or for a hike around a loval lake and have a picnic.
