Dear Abby advises a woman who hates her husband’s new mean personality.

Eight years ago, my husband of 26 years had a stroke, and his personality changed. He was difficult to deal with, but, with time, his old personality came back, and things got better.

I’m afraid he will never make an appointment, so should I just find a counselor for myself? I don’t want to throw away 26 years of marriage, but some days, all I think about is running away. —I don’t know what could be the cause of your husband’s anger, and neither will you until you get to the bottom of it. Do not allow the fact that he is stalling prevent you from consulting a licensed marriage and family therapist.

Not long ago, my husband replaced the key entry lock on the front door of our house with a digital one. Ever since, the door does not latch when you go in or out. I’ve told him it needs to be fixed, but he insists I need to “just pull it.” Abby, this door always latched before. Workers come in and out of the house, and I’m very concerned.
