Sorry, am new to all of this...but need some reassurance that I am not a crazy bitch (pls!!!). Well, where to start... married 15 years, have 3 children(toddlers)and a newborn.
My DH and I just cannot seem to get along...we have a few days of niceness and then the effort seems all too much and its gloves off nasty vindictiveness. I admit I can be a grumpy old so and so at times (maybe the lack of sleep, although No 3 is a bit of an angel really, thank goodness)!...
We've had weeks of aggression from DH...with him out/away on biz at least twice a week, and saying things like 'you must have PND', 'you're mad', 'you have your job (i.e. looking after kids and running house) and I have mine'...and when being really nasty I get called 'fat and ugly'...
He is also quite anti-family (mine anyway...and cannot stand my Mother _ he calls her fat and ugly too!So much so that he will not do anything family oriented...
I do run the house and look after the kids with no extra help apart from my Mother ironing which is a Godsend... but I feel downtrodden, exasperated and emotionally bullied. I gave up quite a well paid career to have my children (slightly later in life shall we say), and No 3 was a happy accident. It isn't easy raising children but I do on the whole find it rewarding, although DH said it was easy and I shouldn't moan about it when he looked after them for half a day.
I have had weeks of feeling quite down as a result of this issue. The upshot of all of this was a row concerning my Mothers birthday whereby he refused point blank to pop by with me and the children (for one hour) to give her a card and pressie...this is the woman who irons his shirts remember!
A huge row ensued because he got nastier and nastier about her and as things do it got out of hand! Anyway, we are now in seprarate rooms, he has told me he doesn't love me and our marriage is over....I'm pooped, all out of crying and cursing and wondered if anyone had any thoughts on this sorry state of affairs....
