Where's my pot of gold?

[StrongEnough]

Always....

This morning is a little better. Sorry to hear that you had a rough night, but at least some good came out of it in your sitch.

I know my comment was sarcastic, and I suppose there is no excuse for it except I was waiting for him to bring it up. So when he did, I got angry.

I have told H many times that I feel he is manipulative emotionally and controlling, I have given him examples of his behavior that make me feel this way. He gets angry every time and totally denies it. I am not going to get anywhere with asking him to stop. He doesn't think he does it. He doesn't trust anyone as far as talking goes. He isn't close with either of his parents. He has no friends.

We had another discussion this morning regarding last night and his needs. He said that he wants that euphoric energy back like when we first met and when we first got back together. Until he feels this, he told me he will always doubt that I truly want to be with him. I responded with the fact that we haven't even begun healing properly and that these feelings will take time. He as usual, disagreed. We went around in the same darn circle for about an hour, with no resolution. We both stood our ground. Ridiculous, I know. He called from work later and said the he would "suck it up and deal with it until I have that euphoric energy to give to him". I guess he thinks that marriage is a continuance of courting and that euphoria should never go away. I disagree. Marriage is much more then that temporary high we get.

I read your post and will drop by in a bit and leave my .02 cents for ya'. Thanks for helping me so much.
