Quote: However, the bit on "marrying up" and the resentment about having to be the breadwinner, and the low self esteem (ego-borrowing) are pretty substantial. I think you ought to focus on this, rather than the sex. (Did I just say that?)
LOL- I agree but I think that I can't really focus on the basis for his resentment but only the ways in which the resentment manifests itself in our relationship and affects me directly. All I can do is continue to build and maintain my own boundaries regarding sex and rude behavior.
