Looking for honest replies from real men only

My husband and I have been married now for almost five years and last nigt he confessed that all though he loved me with all his heart there are times he wished he wasn't married. He said it had nothing to do with other women. He says that he never broke his vows and I believe him. What I am having trouble with is figuring out if his feelings are normal for a man or if I should consider letting him go. I don't want to do that but I explained to him that I didn't want him to be wit me soely out of loyalty. Even at my angriest, I never wish I wasn't married. He's a great man with flaws like all men. After explaining all this to him, he says he thinks I am overreacting. He says the only times he feels that way is when he can't be free to do certain things because he has a family. I asked what certain things and he said stuff like when he has to be on pins ands needles about whether he's acting appropriate(because sometimes I think he acts like a child), or when he doesn't have freedom to go where he wants to go (I think he's referring to strip clubs because I don't agree with them)and do what he wants to do (he used to sell drugs on a big time level and has spent years of his life in jail now he's been out of jail 5 years and earning an honest living and I think he thinks about going back to that life). He says sometimes he feels overwhelmed with responsibility but I have nothing to worry about. He also says all his feelings are NORMAL for married men at times and I shouldn't worry as long as he's keeping his vows and doing what I expect him to do I don't think it's that simple. What do you think?
