Hi all. I hope everyone is having a good new year. I screwed up "again" this Christmas. I let my addiction take over …
Sounds very frustrating. It makes it difficult when two parents don't agree with the kids. Hope you can help him see your point of view.

No, I don't think you'll likely ever make him see your point of view. If he hasn't gotten it by now, then it's probably not his intention. Sounds like princess has him pretty well twisted around her finger. He's jonesing for her love.

Girl what are you going to do about him? I mean the stress you are under is unreal and is also it will really take a toll on your health if it has'nt all ready. There is no cooperation from anyone to support you in your family at home and hon that's just not good. Life is way too short for the crap you go through. When was the last time you laugh hard you were in tears? When was the last time you just had some fun with your life? You deserve to be happy. Not this crap.

I think, it is time to get rid off him. I don't know your situation, about financial support from him. But if he doesn't give you any, you should get rid off him. Why should you go through hell day for day.
I sure would know more in order to give you more advice.

I know the actions of your husband creates lonilness in your heart. He has shown you no love and respect. Every couple I counsel with struggle with the same issues. My wife has the same struggle with me. What has helped us what we are really fighting for. I have a tendency to fight to prove I am right. I try to hard to prove myself. The key is to fight for his heart. When I am fighting a good fight I am asking question for the purpose of gaining understanding. Once I hear my wife's struggles, I offer my self to her. It's so hard to do because I am so selfish. Before you approach him, you need to look and face any possible selfishness in you. Marriage or any relationship is a struggle, learn to struggle well!

I can relate to you when you talk about men not listening or understanding. I can talk to him and not get a single response or request, even if I block his vision from a game or something. It's tough not having the person you talk to listen to you :( and then they wonder why you are angry or why you are so outraged. Take a deep breath and submerge yourself in something fun :D Remember, men work and think differetly than women (its no excuse or anything, but I think they handle things emotionally and stuff, so no wonder it is frustrating!!!)

Yea, it sucks that I can believe that he just sat there. That's exactly what my husband did while his mom told me what an idiot I was. Sometimes, men don't know how to deal with the new additions in their lives verse the old. I'm sorry, I wish this story had a happy ending and I hope for you it does, hang in there! ((hugs))
