[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So your DH has made it 100% clear he will not change anything, even going to therapy.

The ball is in your court- change your behavior, go to therapy, or leave.

Honestly men like this sound exhausting.  The life of a divorcee in a condo sounds more appealing.[/quote]
It is downright exhausting. Even the amount of time I spend thinking about our issues, bringing them to his attention, trying to resolve them, trying to encourage new approaches and ways to break old patterns, is a significant mental and emotional burden in itself and one he never, ever initiates.

I simply don’t know how much more I can take.

He at least agreed to read the ADHD marriage book I’m reading if I read a book that he feels has changed his life recently, about a guy who physically pushes himself to the point of illness and injury to prove to himself that the mind can overcome anything? Or something like that. He seems to think if I somehow “harness” my mind I can suddenly juggle a bunch more things like my own self-improvement and reaching my “full potential,” in addition to my job, raising the kids, and keeping the house (with some outsourcing).[/quote]
