Have you asked your h what you did that he thinks of as abusing? Or would it make him mad that you don't know?

My h has also thrown my past in my face. Sometimes when we would get into arguments, he would make me so mad that I would call him a jerk or jackass. Then he would call me an a**hole.

H has said that he feels like I blame him for my entire rotten childhood. Does that make any sense at all? My dad was very strict and easy to anger. He spanked often, beat us with a belt, banged our heads together, etc. He also molested me. But why would I blame h for any of that?

One thing h said that hurt the most was when he blamed me entirely for what happened to our d. I have a son from a previous marriage who I didn't get to raise (a long, unpleasant story). My mom's sister adopted him. He came to visit us twice. D became depressed a few years ago because she had repressed memories that came out about her half bro raping her. Those two times s came to visit, d was 4 and 7. S was 14 and 17. D started cutting when these memories came out. At the time of those visits, I had been spending a lot of time on the computer when h was at home. I felt like he could care less if I was in the room with him anyway. So, in one of our heated arguments he said that if I hadn't been spending so much time on the computer, she wouldn't have been raped. I didn't even spend that much time on the computer--especially when s visited. Something didn't feel right. I rarely let them out of my site. I still beat myself up over d's depression. I felt that alot of it was my fault. There were a lot of things that happened to s before I lost him. If they didn't happen, he probably wouldn't have raped his baby sister. There were also some times that I had to leave them alone. I wish I took my instincts more seriously and didn't leave them alone at all. But for h to say that it was all my fault, hurt me to the core. That was when I asked him if he had given up on me and wanted a divorce. He thought about it overnight and apologized in the morning. He didn't want a divorce. He said to throw out everything he said that night. We would work out our troubles somehow.

I'm done ranting now.
