There are so many of us here in the same boat with you, and praying its not the Titanic. I'm as guilty of backsliding as the next person, but the only true way to protect yourself is to detach yourself from him. It may all sound so cliche', so simply said but not easily done. That's all true, but YOU CAN'T FIX HIM. Also, if you are at all like me, you keep trying to find the fault in yourself that caused this whole mess. IT'S NOT THERE. YOU DID NOT DO THIS. I can say I have thankfully reached a point that my H can upset me, but not hurt like I did in the beginning.
