[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I spent the day feeling good about my decision to get back into the groove of a sex life, and hopefully build some good will in my marriage. But we came home and there was a flood in our kitchen and, while we got it all sorted out, the stress (which he never handles well) left him again speaking to me with such hostility. I would ask a simple, innocent question and be answered with contempt. I'm realizing that this will never get better. Not until our marriage is dead and gone, and he no longer has me and only sees his beloved child every other weekend. And of course, he will move on and marry again, maybe be a better man with his new wife, and[b] I will spend the rest of my life alone because, after all of this time and stress, I am no longer young and beautiful. I'll eek out a living without saving a penny and struggle to give my kid a decent life. I feel so defeated right now. [/b]

Please tell me I can still turn this ship around. Do I just kill him with kindness? Will that inspire him to treat me as a sounding board instead of an emotional punching bag?

Right now I feel like calling his mother and asking her why, why, why did she raise him to think this is normal? [/quote]

You are clearly an abuse victim. You need out of this marriage. No kindness will fix your damaged husband.

My mom remarried at age 50. She found a man who was taller, nicer, richer, and who had more hair than my father. He is generous and just gave my children a very generous gift to their 529. My father tried so hard to blame her for the demise of their marriage when it was clear he was an absolute emotional abuser. Guess What? His second wife just left him and he's all alone. My mom is busy playing golf, tennis, and traveling with the love of her life. Guaranteed she's having great senior sex.[/quote]
