I agree the whole 'you'll never change' bit is fishy! It's like he wants me to have not expectations at all...just to take him back as is...with his 2-timing, no remorse, unaffectionate self! I lived this way for the past 7 years but when he continued to ignore the boys going to the extent of not even caring if their homework was done (he said well don't go to the school meeting and stay home to help the boys! I said well next time can you go to the meeting he said no! Pretty much you do all of this and let me be on the sofa watching TV)....I'd had enough.
Yeah it seems like every time we make a little headway he has something else nasty to say about me...that I'm fat, that I don't have a flat stomach, that my hair is too short, that I don't want to go out and get drunk, etc! It's always something with him. He says I just need to get over it when I get mad about stuff like this. He doesn't apologize when I talk to him about it...I just need to move on. So then we go back around to him saying ugly stuff again and he doesn't stop.
The man needs some serious counseling I think. Sad part in all this is that his mom puts up with the same stuff from him. She continues to let him get away with it saying that she'd rather he come around than not at all.
