Jo, I feel for you, I am sorry that things have turned out this way.
I know this much, Jo you deserve much better than this! You are a great person, an author, a C and an inspiration to all of us.
I really believe DB can work with sane people, but my XW and your XH are insane right now. I think it is time for both of us to separate ourselves from the problem. When it is no longer safe to be around them, it is time to move on.
Two days ago an elderly friend of mine asked me, "Jdd, have you been able to help her get better by what you have been doing? I said "No"
"Jdd, how long have you been trying?" I said "for yrs"
Jo, I may not be popular on the DB site, but I think you are correct, don't let him drag you down and control you anymore. He is not safe to be around! So what if he was going to be late for his holiday, no sane person would act like this because of time mix up. (Plus I am sure that it was him that was just late as he normally is).
Jo this may be the end to this segment of your life, however you will have a bright future if he is not dragging you done all the time. My XW has chosen an exconvict over me, I am not even jealous because I know I deserve better than her. I am an artist, a business owner, no criminal record- not even a speeding ticket, a loving father who puts his family before his desires and I have hundreds of friends. Over 50% of my customers have become my friends.
You have so much more potential than your XH. He has nothing going for him, that is why he acts like this.
In a few months after I get settled, I will be eager to start working on the book with you. One day we will be on Oprah and have a "best seller". I will also start and wage a war on rape and incest. I want to teach families how to prevent this sickness, by raising awareness and showing what happens when children are ignored.
