[quote=Anonymous]My husband is what I would call a high conflict person. He goes from 0 to 60 very quickly when I raise anything with him that he might perceive as negative or critical. His usual mode is to talk over me and argue with me about whatever issue I’m raising. I’m walking on eggshells all the time. I want to ask him to go to a couples therapist with me. I have no idea how to introduce the topic without setting him off into a defensive anger spiral. I’ve asked him to go in the past and he’s refused but I have reached the breaking point. (I’m the OP of the boat thread, if anyone read that. https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1015456.page) My objective is to get in a room with him and an objective therapist who can moderate so we can have an actual discussion about the issues and come to decision about our future. Anyway— really appreciate tips from anyone who’s BTDT with a spouse who is tough to talk to. I’m planning to talk to him this weekend. Dread it. [/quote]
