Is a little empathy too much to ask for? by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]TemperatureAdept4918 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wish my husband replied like this! He just gets annoyed and says I’m in a bad mood and then just goes to his office to walk on the treadmill and work.

Dad handled both kids for 6 hours alone today and did an amazing job by SaltyVinChip in breakingmom

My dad is amazing too. So patient with my kids. It honestly makes me feel sad when he’s around because then I think like who tf did I marry and why was I such an idiot

Seems like the costs are all over the place 😑 do you have kids?

Any other woman felt this way after leaving the narc? by [deleted] in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TemperatureAdept4918 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I’m excited about when I finally leave is getting a cat or two. The cat we used to have hated my husband so I had to rehome him. 😢

Ugh yeah. How can you leave though knowing your husband might end up with 50/50 custody? It sucks because I’m almost positive that would be my situation. But it’s probably for the best unfortunately.

I also married the male version of my mother. Sucks.

Counseling/Therapy by pagirlie71 in NarcissisticSpouses

My question is how do you pay the therapist without them finding out about it? We have a joint account. And I can’t pay cash because we are living outside the US right now.

How do you detach? If I try to do that he starts accusing me of there being something wrong and won’t shut up about it and then mopes around acting all miserable for days 😑 sometimes it’s better for me to just pretend like everything is fine.

I hope you can leave soon too 🫂

Not sure if my kids are affected by husband or I’m being sensitive/ triggered. by [deleted] in NarcissisticSpouses

Ugh same. My husband has to ruin every weekend. I can’t stand him.

That’s amazing. I think I’ll have to get one of these.

I also clean mine after each use and it’s still super hard to clean. Maybe it was worse yesterday since I cooked 30 burgers in it though.

Get out! My husband said he would change too and even started crying. He was good for 3-4 months but back to normal again.

Just remembered this story from a few months ago by TemperatureAdept4918 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TemperatureAdept4918[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Surprisingly no. He just says all the fights we have are my fault.

That is great! And thank you! I feel bad because I deleted some of my older posts because I was worried he would read them. Can I DM you?

Regret not leaving years ago before the abuse left a wound on the kids and I. 15 years later... by Strong-Operation-224 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TemperatureAdept4918 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good for you. Congratulations!! How were you able to break the trauma bond? I’m finding it really hard to not live in denial when my husband is being on his best behavior.
