You should tell him you can't take it. And that he needs to develop a better attitude in general somehow. Or, that you will have to leave him because life is too short to always be around someone so depressing. That's weird. I don't know why someone would downrate you. Maybe it's your sulky husband? Lol.

I emailed you earlier. With regard to this question, has anything changed? Has he always been this way or is it something new? When was the last time he went to the doctor for a physical? Has anything significant changed in his life? How does he like his job? What about his relationship with family/friends? Maybe he is going through some sort of crisis and isn't sharing it with you..some men are like that and it's very hard to know how to help someone if he/she won't let you in.

My husband is exactly like yours. I can really sympathise with you. He wasn't always like this, it's only since he has reached his mid 60's. Always a proud but quiet man, I believe he has lost some of his self esteem because his body has changed so much in the past 14 years since we were married. He's lost most of his hair, his body sags, his face no longer has that blush of youthfulness, he sleeps much more, and criticizes me MUCH more. I decided to just ignore him for the most part. I started taking classes, going out with my friends, reading, quilting, knitting, beading, doing things that make ME happy. I certainly can't rely on him to help me stay in a good mood so I do it for myself. I almost always feel happy and content. I leave him alone with his sports and the TV remote. I've tried talking to him about his "dark" moods but he only gets very defensive. So, I do what I can for him, as cheery as I can be and then I just go on with my own life. Try it! Forget about him, he will only pull you into his dark hole if you allow him to. Make your own life worthwhile.

yeah put his ass on a plane to me so i can smack him with a frying pan, that should do the trick.

Well, why is he in these seemingly never ending sulking moods in the first place? Does he have some emotional pain of some sort that he cannot get over? If so, then it is not fair to tell him to shut up and stop whining. I don't think you'd do that because you seem really nice. Marriage is about patience. Did you know he was like this before you got married or did this all happen later on in the marriage? I need more details.
