Not very easy, to be honest. If it was an outsider, you could avoid him but if it is your husband, you have to be prepared to work on him for longer, assuming he is not violent in which case you should consider harsher measures. Going back, assuming he is not violent, try a bit of non cooperation. Do your duty but talk very little with him; find your friends and have your outlet. No sex at all, which usually does it with most people. Again, assumes he is not cheating on you. Wait for him to ask you what the matter is. Hope some of this will work. May also precipitate things, which may not be bad for you. Better than living in a horrible place? Good luck.
