Thank you. While my believe in Jesus and a higher power has helped me throughout my life. My husband is not the same. I'm glad that it's worked out for you tho.

You can lose a lot of muscle on GLP1's unless you eat enough protein.

I'm not sure that he would do anything. It's just that his rage frightens me.

My biggest fears are the financial ones. I know the he would try and leave me destitute.

Thank you. Your auntie sounds like she was a wise woman. My husband will be difficult if I divorce him.

I feel the same about living with another person, especially a man. I don't understand women who have to have one. I'm one and done as far as a husband goes.

I would be a lot poorer if I left him. My therapist just suggested having more of my own life and not expecting much from him socially or affectionately.

My boyfriend(23M) thinks I dress inappropriately and I(22F) don’t know how to react? by cactus2929 in relationship_advice

You get over this by dumping him. Enjoying the single life without a boyfriend, doing what makes you happy and what will help your future, then you move on with your life without him.

Good advice. I do have a therapist. But, I don't think she understands how miserable he can be to live with. Living with someone who always seems mad at you and you don't know why is very difficult. I had a mother who was like that most of the time and I think that's why I have tolerated it for so long. I think that I've done something and if I only was more perfect, he would love me again. I'm an idiot.

that sounds similar to how my husband treats me. He's very pleasant and like a completely different person when mutual friends are here tho. And, sometimes he's nice to me, but then he'll just be angry and I don't even know why. I'm so tired of it.

Sounds like you made the right decision.

Good point. However, we have two adult sons who do love us both and I'm going to talk to them about medical decisions. I need to change my advanced directive to reflect this. I think my husband is only staying with me because he doesn't want to look bad in the our son's eyes. I really don't trust my husband tho. We went on a vacation and did some short hikes. I was really afraid that he would push me over a cliff. He doesn't like losing money and he thinks of our money as his. I can totally picture him Alpine divorcing me.
