My boss asked me how it was going today, so I filled him in on my situation. It was refreshing to speak with someone new, but uncomfortable at the same time.
I realize that my wife has sufferred a great deal due to my emotional abuse. My communication skills need work; massive understatement. I can often feel a "rage" before it starts, but I lack the skills to manage my emotions without blowing up.
I'm open to all suggestions on how to have a discussion without being dismissive, demeaning or nasty.
