Trust me men are really thick & it takes a while for things to sink in. why don't you tell him what you just told us that you feel like he's taking you for granted & that you aren't a priority. I would also start making a standing date. Like every tues night just the 2 of you have a dinner together (no t.v. or go out). Also why don't you try & find some things to do on those nights that he's out like do you enjoy any sports, or join a book club, or take a yoga class, if you are not sitting at home fuming & doing something you enjoy instead you both will be happier. Also why don't you go with him to bowling on wed. I understand if you don't want to stay the whole time, but go & watch. If he ignores you then let him know that that hurt your feelings. I know you wanna stand your ground, but he'll just buck heads with you. Men can be very thick he'll think you are trying to control or change him they don't understand that you feel lonely & unwanted. Also I would be more mad about the hunting, but I've never gotten the need to sit in a tree for 12 hours. My husband does it too, I have a lovely stuffed turkey I've hidden in my basement, it's totally creepy. Keep your chin up. Don't get upset just keep telling him calmly that you would like him to spend more time with you & keep promises he makes & when he breaks promises he really makes you feel like you aren't important to him. He'll get it eventually, but it will take time. My husband & I were married 18 months before I finally started liking him again. Now things are better, but it still takes forever to get through to him. Plus in a couple years you may want him to get out of the house & leave you alone.
