OK.... I am the one that moved out to an apartment....so I don't have a lot of questions regarding how to cut the grass or anything, but I have questions about car repair or maintenance.
I had a nail in my tire and had it repaired by a local tire shop. I asked the STBX after the repair was finished a question about the repair, since this was on a run flat tire.... What I got back was that I shouldn't have done what I did... and that I must have let the tire place mess up the rim. Since one of the reasons I left was due to him making me feel like S#@! for not doing things up to his 100% perfect standards... should I not ask him questions again?
And does anyone know how to not let these types of things effect how bad they make you feel?

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
This just happened to me with the lawn mower! I called to have it serviced (apparently, this should have been done last fall, but who knew?). Problem is, I can't start the damn thing! Last summer, I did get directions from stbx on starting it, and promptly handed the directions to the neighborhood lawn cutting boy, who did a fine job.
Well, I called stbx and asked him if he could start the mower and move it so the people could come pick it up. He proceeded to tell me how to start it (again), so i had to tell him (again) that I couln't start it. Then he asked me how much I was going to pay. His response? "Well, if you have that kind of money..." like I'm rolling in dough!
Anyway, even though he told me he would help with these things, in the end, it is all on me. And our marriage also suffered under the strain of his perfectionist attitude, so it is always a big deal to ask him anything.
I am not going to ask him again for any advice. Just makes me feel bad...
Good luck! And remember all of the things YOU can do that HE CAN'T!! It is just a matter of learning something new. At least that is what I keep telling myself! :) ~P
I wouldn't ask him anymore. Ask other people & I'm sure men here will be glad to offer advice also.
I wouldn't ask him a thing.
