The level of disrespect that I feel this screaming in the face of me, our marriage, and our family is immeasurable.



The sooner you address the disrespect the sooner you will get out of limbo. It's all in your control how you handle it, not the outcome but what you do.



I am open to any suggestions.

I have always been the "take charge" guy. I think that's one of the things that originally attracted W to me. Growing up, getting a real job, providing for my family in tough times had taken some of that from me and I started to get whiny about stress and job issues. I still had no problem standing up for myself at home though. Eventually this is what seems to have made W feel controlled and unheard.

How can I still be strong and confident while at the same time not be controlling and be a good listener? I'm open to any suggestions?
