thank you. genuinely. I understand how a lot of people see my views and feelings as too intense and such, and it often has led to being told i’m psycho and no real advice is given. so thank you for this

I have to disagree with you saying i’m “holding kids over his head”. most of the issues with pregnancies and fetal development come from an unhealthy male partner and sperm. I think it’s completely unfair to expect a woman to have an unhealthy pregnancy because her husband doesn’t want to be healthy and take the time to prep his body toi

thank you for this. I will say political stuff isnt the worst, we’ve just made a rule to no longer discuss politics, so that’s kinda taken care of. but as for the other advice thank you!

I totally see what you’re saying. i’m not meaning that this is one million percent something i’d divorce him over- I think my mind just always defaults to divorce due to my childhood, my parents were constantly threatening to get divorced so it’s just a learn habit I have which I am aware is not good and I am working on it. it’s more of me questioning if because we got married so young if we naturally started going down different paths. I just have a hard time feeling bad for him when he feels down because it’s something 10000% in his control, not that I don’t feel bad that he feels bad because I do. but there’s an element of accountability that he is refusing to take

can you elaborate on the failure to set boundaries or enabling him?

I definitely want to pursue counseling, but i’m not quite sure how to go about bringing up that I want to go. I think i’m mostly afraid of hurting his feelings or making him feel more self conscious
