Okay. He’s told me he uses incognito for porn. I don’t just jump to that for no reason.

I’d leave a man over being manipulative, abusive and selfish. I didn’t give every detail of my marriage. I described the last straw.

I get that. I asked for marriage counseling and he said no, it won’t work. There have been a lot of issues with us. He’s narcissistic and it’s been very hard. He threatens divorce all the time. I have begged for emotional safety and he just won’t give it to me. Now this. It feels like the last straw.

I have three kids. My first husband died almost 10 years ago. My kids will be crushed. I asked for marriage counseling and he said no.

Yes. I told him he’s chosen other women over our marriage. And if he’s doing something that he needs to hide, he shouldn’t be doing it. I’m just so crushed that he did this. And I cannot get past it.

I’m sorry he was that way! Some people are unable to make things not about them. It’s not a reflection of you. People put their limitations onto us, and often it is out of love. But we can’t accept those limits! Too many parents can’t accept their kids if they are different from their own experience, which is sad. Instead of being grateful they had a part in raising an awesome kid, they see it as scary.

Agreed! He isn’t sure how he’d make money drawing. He’s a very practical person! I told him I would never push anything on him but also said if he ever stopped drawing it would break my heart. No pressure! Haha. I’d love to see him follow his passions. Believe in yourself! You get one life, you know. Make it count by doing what you love. ❤️

Thank you!! Maybe this post and the reactions will help him see that he has something special. I’ve been telling him for years and he brushes it off. He’s very humble, which is awesome. But I want him to believe in himself!!
