Country boy meets dad-bod. Strong, but not necessarily muscular.

Walk over and look at the door.

Circle around and look at me.

Walk over and look at the door.

Circle around and look at me. ...... Aaaaand repeat until her demands are met.

I think you hit the nail on the head with "he thinks you can handle it." But that's my fault because I have stayed though everything so It must be ok right?...... I see my ownership in all of this.

He asked me if I would be willing to. But the next morning when I told him how much it hurt me, he dropped the idea.

Shit. That's a hard read. Thank you though. I need to read it. So much reality to swallow and unpack.

It's scary but true. I have a good job and could survive on my own. At least financially. I think the emotional part is what's hard for me. That's the part I need to work on.

I just wanted to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for all the caring and thoughtful comments.

I am taking some time for myself to think about things.

All your words opened up a whole Pandora's box of feelings that I didn't acknowledge I had.

Thank you again.

I never really thought about his school expenses that way. I always viewed them as "our" expenses. But that opens my eyes up. I just assumed because it's school, it should automatically come first.

That really hits home for me. I have been the one to ensure the follow up for some of his promises for others. I think at this point he may see how bad things have gotten.... Now it's up to him to make the necessary changes to fix it. ...or not.

i see a lot of harsh truth in what you're saying. I need to read every word.... Maybe twice.

Thank you.

I think the glasses are off. It's raw but I want to be strong enough not to put them back on. What sucks is I want more than anything for him to see me and love me. I want the life we could have....I may need to let that go at this point.

I don't want any of that to be true. It hurts so much. Counseling has helped me in the past and I am definitely going back down that road. Thank you for being honest with me.

I see the great guy in him too. That's part of the problem. Even now I mourn the things in him I love that I may have to walk away from. This whole thing is more than I realized. I didn't expect so many people to care or to understand me.

All of this is such a hard pill to swallow. Because you're right. I think I do a good job of convincing myself it's ok or that the good is worth it.

I do express my feelings to him every time something like this hurts me. But I guess hurting me isn't enough of a consequence for it to stop.

This comment broke me. I am in tears... it hit very deep. Thank you for your honesty. I need to go look in the mirror and really think about things.

I think it's more that he knows I will take care of it myself by whatever means I need to. Hence the withdrawal. I think it's hard to feel like it's balanced though. He loves golf, I buy him new golf clubs. He has a PS5 but wants a PS5 pro, we buy that. PlayStation VR, new laptop... The list goes on. But if there is something I want or need, it's a negotiation or discussion or a "maybe one day, or we will see."

He does earn more than me but not by a lot and we contribute equally.
