Then, he got all self-righteous...and because I was being so emotional, I GAVE him ammo for the whole "and this is why we can't stay married" speech. "because we never get along"..... I am kicking myself right now!!!!
Deep breaths It was a backslide, we all have them. Learn from it. What can YOU do to break the cycle in the future? How can YOU stop the fights before they start? Remember "it takes one to tango", you can change the dynamic by yourself!

but the thing that makes me SO mad is that he hasn't been civil for the past 2 years!!! So, now that he's leaving me, he can be civil??????
Anger masks pain. What he said hurt you. Address the pain, don't let it become anger. Work through the pain and it goes away. Let it convert to anger and it takes up permanent residence in you.
I work in Dallas so I'm pretty close to you, I'll try and send positive vibes your way
