What does this "connection"get me! More mental anguish. An unhealthy living environment for me and the kids. Pushes him further away so absolutely nothing helpful!
I guess I feel if he is still willing to argue about it he must care in some way. I would say it makes me feel noticed and understood.
I could meet those needs in a more positive way. I could ask for what I need instead of being vague which causes the problems. I can spend more time with friends and the kids doing things I enjoy to feel significant important and noticed. I can communicate on here when I am frustrated as you guys understand where I am coming from. I could choose to communicate more openly and honestly with WAH so there can be less conflict?
