[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Was he completely failing before to ask for what he wanted and now he's snapping back totally in the opposite direction? [/quote]

Hard to say; we were pretty compatible and there were a couple areas where we both make compromises, but it was not a big deal. Since our toddler was born 3 years ago, his personality / views shifted 180 so our values are growing different by the way - mine have stayed stable and 7/10 have shifted dramatically for him. But while I am willing to meet him halfway for a good portion of these shifts, he is really on the side of "my way or the highway".

Now I am mostly willing to give in b/c I would rather do that than give up time with my child in a divorce - but hoping he has a limit? I have absolutely no leverage, he is not even willing to discuss serious topics (think our child's education/major house repairs, budget allocated for vacations, for longer than 5-10 mins if we don't see eye to eye and then gives me the silent treatment on that topic unless I give in; he literally retreats and shuts the door to his room and does not come back say the following morning to discuss, hangs up on me, moves to another room if I try to discuss before bed, he tells me that we should just get a divorce; at that point, I mostly give in b/c of the child).
