[quote=Anonymous]I was you OP and I'm in the process of divorce now. One thing that really opened my eyes was a book called "Fatal Flaws". It has a quiz and some of the questions might resonate with you:

1) Do I trust this person?
2) Do I feel better about myself as a consequence of this relationship?
3) Does this person consider my needs equally to his?
4) Is this person sensitive to and supportive of me?
5) Will this person communicate with me honestly on significant issues affecting our relationship?
6) Is this person honest with other people and trustworthy in his other relationships?
7) Do I and my children always feel physically safe with this person?
8) Do other people who I love and trust the most believe this person is good for me? Good for my children?
9) Does this person deny that he has a problem?
10) Does this person refuse professional help for his problem?
11) Does the problem remain unchanged despite professional help?
12) Is there a good chance that in the future this person will physically injure me or my child?

The "quiz" helped cut through my excuses and denial.

Where is your dad on all this? What is your relationship with him like? Was he authoritarian?[/quote]
