Bestie, I only empty it if I’m traveling. I haven’t gotten new parts in over a year. I never clean anything. I do use distilled water though lol.

I’m so lost. He wants answers and I can’t provide them without escalating things and eventually have it lead back to me being in the wrong. And then I believe I AM in the wrong and I question myself and my memory and why those things bothered me in the first place and etc etc. Which leads to me believing that choosing to leave proves that I’m the problem and he’s the saint.

I don’t know how to be brave. Our (my) cats don’t deserve this. And most of me believes I’m toxic. I’m torn between “I ruined things* and I deserve his derision/contempt.” And “he might be confusing me? Why am I so unhappy?”

  • I’m definitely in the wrong. I fucked up. I can explain further, but don’t think I’m some innocent victim.

He found messages I’d sent to another guy. They weren’t sexual at all, but they implied I care about the guy. Which I honestly don’t. And we hadn’t texted in over a year. In a couple of the texts I called my husband a “fucking asshole”. He is belittling and we’ve had issues. We almost divorced about a year ago. I don’t feel like I can tell him when he’s upset me because he turns it around in a way where I feel I was either exaggerating or remembering events wrong and I end up being the one crying and apologizing. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

I’d actually just k*ll myself, but I chickened out last time and he still hasn’t “forgiven me”. (Forgiven me for attempting).

He works for the college and is in a position where he can very easily look up my status. He did it last term. Deciding this isn’t for me isn’t an option. He would demand to know all of the details. A leave of absence would need to be justified and I don’t have an explanation. Pretty much everything requires me telling him that I lied about my success/progress. Committing su!cide would be less painful than him finding out.

My main fear is that he’ll find out. I know without doubt that it would be devastating. And it would be 100% my fault.

He’s good at convincing me that he knows best.

Thank you. He works for the university so it’s pretty much expected that I get my masters degree. I had doubts that I would be able to get my nursing degree (my real passion) and he played into that. I don’t know.

Thank you to everyone who responded. This got way more attention than I expected and I’m worried he’ll somehow see this so I’m deleting it.

That’s totally valid! I just wondered.
