Mizjjd...you always make me feel better. He is typical midlife crisis but I am at the point now I don't want to stay any longer. Move on and move along but it is so hard to pick up your life. I look at my home, the kids, the finacial sitch and wonder how it can be done or if I even have it in me. He takes me on this crazy rollercoaster that I can never get off of.
TnD,
I am right there with you girl. My M hasn't been good for a very long time. My H hasn't been good to me or for me, also for a very long time. No, I haven't been the perfect wife, but I have always cared, been engaged and involved. I know, painful though it will be even though I believe it to be the best course, that my M needs to end.
But I too am tied by children and finances.
You TnD, have the choice to get off the rollercoaster. Even if you can't physically separate right now, you can emotionally and mentally detach.
From what you share here, I don't see you detaching. Am I missing something?

You teach people how to treat you by what you allow. What you stop. And what you reinforce. ~~~~~~~ A lack of boundaries invites a lack of respect.
