[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband is selfish, completely lacking in empathy, and is never wrong. He is emotionally unsupportive at best. However, he's a great dad, good provider. We've been married ten years and it seems unfathomable to divorce, seperate homes, finances etc. I have a stable career and am a pretty great person. I can't seem to let go of past arguments and the fact that he refuses to "hear" me (leaves me with two sick kids to go with friends, gets drunk and can't get out of bed when we have a newborn, claims I'm ok to drive 5 days after a c section). Sometimes I feel like I'm just emotional and needy, but mostly in disbelief in his insensitivity. We are seeing a therapist but I think I am done. Thoughts? What is my future? I'm very confident but terrified and mostly sad for what could have been. We have two kids 8 and 5 months. [/quote]

are these three instances over the course of the 8 years your kids have been alive?

you admit a) he is a great dad and b) that you harbor lingering resentments

the drive 5 days after a c section thing seems bad, but is the guy not allowed to get drunk once in a long while?  or to go out at all when the kids are sick?  were they colds or deep in throes of influenza?

some perspective could be useful, just like what the other posted provided regarding married v separated.
