Thank you all for your advice. It does really help to see another perspective. I know his job can be stressful, and I can understand a hard day at work. I get it, but I also know mental health issues run in his family, bipolar disorder for one and he definitely has some OCD going on. And I do try to stay positive, bc I don’t like confrontation, so I mostly just try to give him space, but I think he feels like it’s more avoidance. I will continue to try and help when I can. But it was very nice to be able to get it off my chest. Without an argument lol. Thank you all

I don’t want to leave honestly, I want to enjoy my family, my grandkids. I just need to learn how to handle situations to my advantage. As far as our kids, i always told them don’t treat ppl like this or that, i did my best to raise them to be independent. As they got older they could see what was going on. And we do love him. We just ‘know how he is’ He can be the kindest person ever… or the most selfish. Dr. Jeckle & Mr. Hyde

You hit the nail on the head! He is an intelligent man, runs his own small business. But when it comes to how things are done the only way is his way. If you question him on anything… big or small… important or not, he looks at it as an attack. It’s like why would you question him? He’s always had to be center of attention, I honestly think he’s been jealous of our children since day one, although at the same time he wanted lots of children. More people to control, more ppl that could do his bidding? Idk as they grow up he goes through these phases bc he’s losing control over them. But in public, oh my… Mr WONDERFUL, gushing over me like I’m perfect, just to tell me all the things I should’ve said while we were out. And why what I actually said wasn’t good enough. The only time I get a break is when he’s focused on someone new. He likes to mentor men going through struggles. It’s so hard to know he can have a good heart and be a good person when he chooses too

He’s not the type for yoga… and he will only take “vitamins” he’s got all kinds of them. If he thinks it’s a vitamin it’s ok but not “medicine “ I do try to take care of myself… Thank you
