[quote=Anonymous]My own DH used me as what I would describe as "cannon fodder" with his family. He got credit for having a relationship but spent the whole time hiding behind me (or maybe work). In no way was he giving me a gift. - only a burden he could not carry himself. I felt like the scapegoat - overburdened and cast out from protection- when his relationship finally broke down. I have no advice here. I just hope you will not be me!! When he talks about his fights with you, is he setting you up as a scapegoat? In some way, did the tactic of hiding behind the exwife ultimately backfire and is now causing jealousy? If so, why is he continuing to try and use a wife as the burden-holder for his relationship with his own mother? Why not learn from the mistake?[/quote]
