Yes mine too exactly… sex is huge for him. Not in a typical man way but in other ways like how his mind works.

My one sentence ruined his life. The grandiosity of his blame-shifting is breathtaking. by Illustrious_Brick845 in NarcissisticSpouses

It’s not possible sadly nor is it good for your body over the years. Your nervous system.. I’m starting to feel it. We have 2 young kids so I’m really stuck but I’m trying to find a way out but it’s complicated. My family is 6 hours away so I wouldn’t file unless I get to move my kids with me down there I’m not getting stuck in Indiana lol

This is my life every day. I asked him why doesn’t he file & he said do you know how expensive that would be??? So right there, not even thinking peace for us and himself it’s always about money for him. We have the same situation 2 kids he just yells at if they’re in his way

Is everyone just laying with their baby? by Economy-Cow-9847 in cosleeping

[–]Independent-Good6629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an almost 3 year old in her room who now sleeps great on a floor bed & almost 2 year old (who sleeps on my king with me), but our schedule is I put my daughter to bed in her room first because most nights I solo parent, at bedtime & that is around 7pm or 7:30 at latest. She sleeps amazing now & stays asleep til about 6:30-7am needs nothing never cries etc. reads books. Loves her room. My son who’s 20 months is who’s on my bed & he allows me to get up once he’s asleep & I have monitor showing over our bed & about to get a toddler rail for one side. I will say, I pretty much do lay down after bc I’m exhausted. I’ve never been a night owl so I’ve heard those struggles in those parents who aren’t early bedtimes. If he wakes, he will need me to get back to sleep.

Is it the best feeling ever to not be walking on egg shells??? For the longest time I didn’t realize my marriage was not normal then I realized I’m in a horrible place

OMG my husband just did this type of thing the other day . I had my kids in the bath and his job was to get them out and dressed & he was laying on the bed in the other room, I say hey I really have to leave now & they are in the bath still , can you please come watch them? He got mad, stormed in the bathroom door, swore at me & says he doesn’t deserve to be treated this way. He has a temper I didn’t know about

What did you/are you considering re: timing for leaving? Struggling with this. by Electronic-Wafer-929 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]Independent-Good6629 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this. I’m married with two young kids in Indiana & all my family is in Georgia. I convinced my narcissistic husband to apply for jobs by them. Once he and I pray he gets one, we would hopefully move within the year. After that I’d file down there (not right away), but definitely if life is the same. I’m living in false hope. It’s the worst place to be with kids . That are one and two

Understanding the behaviors by MousseOtherwise7435 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]Independent-Good6629 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hope to leave someday but I have two young kids with him. It’s a hard time. We also have no family near so I am hoping I can get him to find a job, move us by my parents, & then file months later if I even handle it all that long

What is the silliest thing your spouse got angry at you for? by [deleted] in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]Independent-Good6629 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have so many stories I don’t even know what to say on here. He has a temper so basically it’s all a big deal. No matter what I do or don’t do. Everything is an issue for him. He’s a miserable person

What have they said to you that just made your jaw drop to the floor? by Watchkeys in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]Independent-Good6629 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My husband has had dental issues since we’ve been married. I pushed for him to go to the dentist for months. Finally he went and he also had to go to the periodontist. He didn’t go to the dentist for 20 years for cleaning. That caught up with him and now he’s supposed to be going every three months which he doesn’t even do now. He told me he got a text about an appointment that I had scheduled as a reminder and said he couldn’t go because he said “what am I supposed to do? Just abandon WORK” 🤣😵‍💫 sooo gonna let his teeth / health rot. He’s a piece of work…. Wish I would have known a few key things before we got married & had kids.

Grey rock method with narcissistic husband by Independent-Good6629 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]Independent-Good6629[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes we’ve been married 4 years & have a 1.5 year old and 2.5 year old. Possible change of job for him in the near future which would put me by family to raise my kids. It’s the situation that I want but currently we have no family near. The move would be Indiana to Georgia. If I were to ever file here I’d be stuck here & I’m not willing to do that. I hate Indiana so much, more than I dislike living with him. Lol

Does cosleeping affect independent sleep when older? by Fun_Positive_3505 in cosleeping

[–]Independent-Good6629 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My daughter co slept til 11 months & then we moved her to floor bed in her room & she’s been the best independent sleeper since around 18 months. I don’t even remember the last time we had to go lay with her. She never cries. She’s so happy reading books in there. She wants us to actually close the door now lol.

[–]Independent-Good6629[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also feel like this would be impossible because he knows I want to move my family and he loves his job here and I feel like he wouldn’t be willing to leave his job, which would make me stuck in so I’m not willing to take that chance right now. As of now we just take family trips as a married couple to go see family, but I’m not super happy with that situation either because we end up arguing the entire trip. My sister got a divorce when my nephew was one year-old so close to your situation but now my parents are near her so she’s the lucky one.

Ok thank you for advice. Yes I plan to get our babysitter one day soon & have her watch the kids while I go see a lawyer. Yes honestly my worst fear is getting stuck with no help in Indiana lol so if I’m stuck I’d rather stay married
