The love has passed, the spouse is annoying, everything is boring, is it really a crisis?

Or maybe this: I love him, but he compares him with his ex-wife, which means his feelings for her have not yet passed.

A married couple, both in their early 30s, each on their second marriage, each with a child from a previous marriage. We’ve been together for a year and a half and are already expecting a baby. Both are educated people, have more than one higher education, work in the government. structures. And it all started just fine — they were jokingly looking for a reason to quarrel.

And after a year and a half, these reasons began to appear with frightening regularity. It seems to the wife that their baby is unplanned, and therefore less desirable for her husband than his first child. He often recalls how he prepared for the birth of his first child, how he bought a crib, a stroller, and looked after his ex-wife. And the woman begins to be insanely jealous, although she understands that she is significantly superior to her ex in all respects and the marriage there has long been completed psychologically — more than 5 years have passed. And she begins to put pressure on her husband — she had everything, but I had nothing. Let’s do this and that, buy everything so that it’s not worse, but better.
