ASK KAREN: Robert felt uptight and out of control. He felt trapped and unable to escape the stress in his life. He hated his job, felt bored, restless, and under utilized. At work he was unfulfilled as his skills weren’t being acknowledged or used. Nevertheless, he worked longer hours to avoid his wife, Laura, who was always unhappy and nagging him.
At home, Laura felt she managed the children on her own. The more decisions she made, the more Robert left her to it. When they arrived in Singapore she assumed her strong relationship with Robert would them through the stresses of a new environment. Yet Robert now seemed withdrawn and quiet and wouldn’t talk to her about his work or what she was going through. She felt resentful, frustrated, unsupported and insecure. Laura knew of many couples that had marriage problems and felt it was only a matter of time before they too were just another statistic.
