AJ - I just read some of your thread, and it appears you feel your wife is controlling. Please don't project this onto me.
"Let me re-word this as I would have seen it had that been said to me (it was). "I waited around waiting for the changes YOU needed to make and you did not. You are not worthy of being my husband because you would have changed. I would not accept you until you did. It's your fault the marriage isn't working."
-THis is what you heard from your wife, not at all what I said to my H.
If you read my past threads, you may see that we have more in common than is apparent on my new thread. Best of luck, and I'm done defending myself now.
