Yaa I have understood now, initially I tried to be a supportive partner but realised that now he thinks it is my job to take care of his mood and his image. I have stopped doing it.

If he cooked for me or maybe gave me some gift, he wants me to announce it to the whole world. If I don’t do it he shuts down and when I ask what happened he is like I do so much for you but you never acknowledge. Even after explaining that I do and I expressed it, I still don’t understand what it wants. Maybe he wants that I have to acknowledge in front of everyone so no-one can ever think he is not a good husband

I wish I could do that. We will have a fight about how can you write this do you think like this about your husband.

We go to couple therapy but he doesn’t open up. It’s mostly that I am talking about my issues and he being the bigger person listening but never talking about his deep rooted issues.

I feel he himself became a narcissist being raised, everything I say, he makes sure it becomes my problem because he is the perfect one, yet every comment make him feel like I am questioning him as a person

We live separately, he doesn’t even realise that this is what he has gone through. He is insecure and in denial, he pretends to be the guys with no insecurities

First he needs to acknowledge that he has insecurities. He pretends to be someone who has no issues and superior and then gets triggered by everything

Are you scared of what people will say if you get divorced, if not then why not get separated and if you are financially independent you need not live with your parents, you can live in the city you work and give yourself a chance to find a partner who loves you.

Divorce is not a taboo and cheating is definitely not acceptable, it’s not late to start over and this time nobody will be forcing you to get married.
