[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DW has this very annoying habit of coming home and dumping all the sh*t of her day at my feet.  I realize people sometimes need to vent, and I can take it on occasion, but everyday it becomes something I just don't want to hear.  My DW almost never has anything to talk to me about that is positive.  She complains ad infinatum about her long work hours - although her long work hours are all rather sporadic - and if she has a fight with one of our teenage kids she takes it out on me.  It is killing whatever love I have for this woman.  I would prefer she get to a therapist and figure out how to handle her own emotions rather than look for me and the kids to be her emotional dumping ground.  [/quote]

Are you expressing and communicating this to her? Do you set aside regular times to talk? Does she know you have these feelings? Or have you brought them here and dumped them at our feet while she remains clueless about your increasing quiet, distance and irritability? If you aren't communicating well, doing couples therapy check ins and regular dates then go address this.   People can't read other people's minds![/quote]
