[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ex also had a lot of unhealed childhood trauma - absent, narcissistic, cheating father and emotionally volatile, sometimes abusive mother. Never really addressed or recovered from it - it was all swept under the rug and denied until after we married and had kids, after which our marriage completely self-destructed given his inability to discuss anything, tell the truth, have self-knowledge, control his behavior, manage his anger, etc.[/quote] +1 They always turn into their father unless they did a lot of therapy and admitted it had an effect on them. Most men will think they can rise above it, suppress it and sweat they won’t be like him. Midlife they end up the same way. Hitting rock bottom sometimes make them finally address it, but some just keep moving on to the next thing.[/quote]
