Why do you keep placing you husband in your family's scenerios? And they are always the worst case scenerios?

how about

he skyped you (yay)

he wants to go running with you (yay)

you threw him a roadblock of sorts and he offered another alternative (yay)

you are also, it seems, turning this into some sort of competition...in referencing talking to the therapist you mentioned it was a lose lose type scenerio even and the therapist kept saying you are doing the best you can but maybe the therapist isn't looking at your husband with disappointment...maybe he is looking at your that way

you are not there to judge your husband using your therapist tools

it is hard when we are trained in certain things not to use that in our home life dealings too

but we can't

in this process, you are both damaged and need help from the professionals

you are NOT that professional

you are NOT there to solve your husbands issues or label them for him

and

when you set him up to fail by constantly suggesting that he will run if things get hard, then why wouldn't he??/

why would he try to fight against your PROFESSIONALNESS all the time? your need to label and your all-knowing psychology-ness?

give him a chance to be who he is
