Just want to be normal!
I just want to be normal. I know there is no such thing but there has to be something beyond the religious pyscho babble I live in. The "God has doomed us because we are bad mentality" wears me down. Makes my blood boil. I think it's hard to be on the outside and fully comprehend the bizarre things that go on in conversations inside my house. The latest is the idea that all my son's baseball games have been rained out because his team is unjust. Never mind the fact he can't explain why in previous yrs we never were rained out. Never mind we went a yr and totally dominated every team with played. Why didn't God punish us then. Why didn't he dish us up some humble pie then? Oh but I need to ask God that not my husband ... Even tho my husband has all the answers. Some how he doesn't have those answers.

Save yourself!
Yes, I know it\'s impossible to fully comprehend the conversations, but I suspect I understand more than you realise. Because although my ex wasn\'t full of religious claptrap, I sure had my fair share of completely insane conversations. Circular nonsense, the concept of him having all the answers except the ones I wanted or needed (but he still had all the answers and there was no way I could suggest he didn\'t ....) ... yes, it drives you nuts, it makes you so very, very frustrated.
You\'re right, there\'s no such thing as normal. But there\'s a lot closer to it than you are living now. You can do this. You can save yourself and your kids from the insanity. You are worth it - and you ARE strong enough. You just have to find the strength.
