[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]be direct. tell him "I resent how unengaged you are with the needs of our family. I feel like I'm on my own. This dynamic cannot remain." see where that takes you. It could head towards divorce. It could shock him into action. It could start a real conversation where you both feel heard. Good luck.

Noooo. Too combative. We don’t know his side. If he is a good dad in other ways be careful throwing around inflammatory words like “resent” and “I engaged.” Start positive and focus on how you are overwhelmed. Don’t throw blame right away. If you are to the brim with true resentment, sort in therapy and don’t take stranger advice on DCUM. [b]Divorce is not something to be flippant about[/b].[/quote]

I don’t know. Sometimes during my darkest days I would daydream about being divorced because I would get a break half the time. Realistically I know it never truly works out that way but having every other week “off” felt like hope.

Sometimes saying that out can be a wake up call to your spouse. (And sometimes it’s not.) [/quote]
