[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. Therapy for yourself first.  
2. If he's a good dad, then perhaps you both can negotiate/settle custody amicably.
3.  I would caution waiting because if you are already not talking to each other when you're in the house, your kids as they get older will pick up on the tension, if they haven't already.  That is not healthy.  If you can turn this into a low-conflict parenting marriage, that's one thing, and I would have gone for that in my situation, but there was abuse in mine, so it wasn't an option. But if you are fighting on and off, your kids will notice.  Then it's better to settle apart.  You can make it so you see the kids most days.

Thank you, I am already in therapy. I don’t think it’s just the communication… for my 40th birthday, I wanted to go out of country to resort, kids were 1.5 and 5, but he wanted to do Airbnb since it’s more exciting and fun… We had two little kids, relaxing at the resort would be the right option… and it was for my birthday… anyways, I couldn’t get him to agree to an all inclusive, so we ended up not going. For my big promotion at work, I organized a party, when I asked my hubby to help, he said that I am not allowing him to eat and acted like a guest versus a host… while I was organizing games, etc. When my youngest daughter was having anaphylactic reaction, he argued with me about calling 912 hoping Zyrtec would work, he only apologized a year later… when I am sick and stressed bc of work, he won’t comfort me, so I feel like I have lots of responsibilities and zero help or consideration for my well being… [/quote]

Your man sounds like a downer. Probably also low key jelly of your success …

Honestly you two don’t sound compatible at all

Ugh [/quote]
