I thank everyone for you responses.  I don't know, maybe I just needed to rant and hear it from others that were unbiased or at least didn't really know either of us.  Obviously, you are only hearing my side of the story in the situation at hand.  It would be nice if he and I actually spoke on the problems we are having.  At least then I would know if he sees my frustration and if he, himself, is also frustrated with anything going on. 

I do know this though. He isn't really used to having nicer things in life.  He didn't understand me wanting to get renter's insurance when I got the new computer.  As far as he is concerned, these are just objects that can be replaced.  I, on the other hand, come from the middle-upper class who is used to alarm systems, 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, along with anything that was a necessity to live comfortably.  With this I have to add, I was far from really spoiled.  There was no such thing as a game system in our home or really any sort of electronic entertainment.  My parent's believed in saving extra money for vacations or if some emergency should take place.

Basically, we come from two totally different worlds.  And, at this point, I question if I only stayed and married him for the sake of our child.  Don't get me wrong, I do love him.  But then, some of my close friends words ring in my head at this that "sometimes love isn't enough". I don't want to hurt him and take his child away, or take the grandparent's away from their grandchildren.

At this point, I am going to do exactly what I have told those personally I would do.  I will go to the therapist for myself.  Discuss the matters at hand with them and see if they see any solutions to them.
