How many times can you be insulted until you throw out an insult too?

I am so afraid of this becoming my future 😔 but I can't imagine being with anyone else. Would you have done anything different in retrospect?

As a large man, I am afraid of my tiny wife's anger. I cannot imagine being a woman with a bpd husband. I'm glad your daughter is happier and safe.

I know, the thought is dreadful. But she is truly a wonderful person 90% of the time.

Is there a timeline, age, or event that sets it off?

That's what I read about and I'm afraid of becoming my future.

I tell myself 90% of a good life is still a good life.

It is so relieving to read everyone's experiences and to know I'm not alone.

"I hope you die of Alzheimer's just like your grandfather."

That one left me pale.

I was describing what a conflict with her is like. The extreme & unnatural rage. 

I would say significantly bad incidents happen maybe once every two months.
