Lisa, you don't have to go just because he nags. You can tell him you need space for a while.

I know her sitch was different, but T0324 did it beautifully. She DB'd in the face of enormous provocation and hardship consistently through everything. All her friends and family reporting back what bad deeds her H was up to, etc. finally one day he was giving her a hard time and she just put up her hand and said "please don't insult me by denying X. We both know you are. I just want to make Y clear. That's all." Then she put down her hand and drove away.

I'm telling you, I stood up and cheered for her that day. She'd finally found her power.

It happens that a week later her H asked to come home. And really didn't know what she'd say. He scoped things out with her family before he went back.

Your H is being disrespectful in how he's treating you. He's acting like you should be glad to get demoted while he goes and plays. In my view, tell him no and tell him why. You will fell better for it.

Merry Christmas. wink
