Dear Lea:

I understand the part about your husband being gone a lot, spending so much of his time at work while you are not involved in yours that much. The part I need to understand better is when you do spend adequate time with him- what is lacking: can you give me an example of a conversation you started with him, one that didn’t go anywhere for you, where you ended up feeling empty and unfulfilled? You can paraphrase such a conversation, it needs not be exact, of course.
