Yeah, she used to control me with her moodiness, anger, etc. I see now how she tries to do the same thing.
In fact, as I had expected, she just called (I let it go to voicemail) and she said:
"I'm sure you're screening your calls, and I know I'm the last one you'd want to do a favor for, but I'm wondering if you would do a favor for me. Give me a call when you get this message, if you want to."
Sounded down, I'm sure she's depressed. Tough sh#t. Live in my life for a day or two...
I don't want to make out like I don't love my wife, or care for her. I do, more than ever. It's just that I don't like being manipulated, or used. I've been used by her for 8 years, so she could have "a family to match our house and neighborhood." That just makes me sick.
So many more things that I'm going to need to add to the list of issues to deal with if we ever come to a point of reconciliation. And that list seems awfully long now.
