Dear Abby: My husband is angry with my adult children for not coming to our wedding

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have been together for 20 years, married almost 10. He is angry with my adult children for not coming to our wedding. (I had told them if they couldn’t be happy for me, stay away.) He avoids any social interaction with them. Last weekend, there was a formal affair for my brother, and again, my husband didn’t join me. I’m sick of hearing “he is the way he is” and can’t suck it up for my sake. He’s now sleeping in the guest room. I love him, but I’m sick of the nonsense. Any advice? — TIRED OF IT IN CONNECTICUT

DEAR TIRED: Because you and your husband are at an impasse, my advice is to seek couples counseling from someone who is licensed to give it. Your doctor or health insurance provider could give you a referral.
