Renee - that is eactly what I meant by victim mode. Your h is blaming you for his actions. In some way these MLCers feel like victims, unsuccessful, no matter what the reality is. Look at your h. In order to feel good about himself hehas married someone very considerably younger [and at 26 someone in their 40s is a LOT older] He is also angry withyou for how he feels . . . .
I don't know about your son. Growing up without both parents is tough on kids, and it is hard for them to see the situation fairly and with any degre of objectivity. I hope he will grow up and see things a differently. It must be very tough for you.
