We're coming up on 23 years of marriage (I was 6 when we got married. ). Yes, there are times when it's not all perfect. For us communication is very important. He really is my best friend and the person I talk to when I feel like my life sucks.

I bet a lot of it is coming from your job. If you are anything like most of the other teachers I know, you pour your heart and soul into your teaching and when you have a class or classes like you do this year, it just rips you apart. I don't think non teachers quite get this. And you probably feel trapped in education - I know I do. Job security and decent benefits in these economic times...

It sounds like you need to talk to someone. It would be nice if you could talk with your honey, but if you feel weird about that, find someone. Heck, sometimes I just spew it out here on TE, like it's a bad tasting strawberry.

TALK!!!!
