[quote=Anonymous]I empathize with you, OP. My DH is similar. Some PP have given great advice. Others, not so much, but they don’t realize that you can’t communicate with people who are manipulative and abusive like this. No matter what you say, they will turn it around in favor of themselves. Agree with PP that women are often pressured to think that if they only supported his career more, or had sex with him more, or did more around the house so he could relax, then he’d be happy and treat us well. It’s the exact opposite- the more you give in, the worse they treat you because it worked. It’s like having a toddler, you can’t reason with them or be nice to them in hopes they’ll behave. They just aren’t capable of it.

I started drawing more boundaries because I figured that no matter what I did, I was wrong, so I may as well do what I want. It helped me get my life back on track but led to WW3 at my house. We will likely be getting divorced by the end of the year. Not a happy ending, but I’m glad I spent the last year preparing for it.

Do you have friends you can spend more time with? I found that connecting with women in similar situations helped me keep my sanity. [/quote]
