Please can someone give me some advice, I have been married 6 years and have two children under four. My husband can be a kind person and can be considerate but he is also a bit of an alpha male and has a large ego and likes to hear his own voice about how brilliant he is. He has recently landed a very high position and once again works all the time. He is in his element as now he has what he has always wanted. During the week we hardly see him and at weekends he goes for a rest twice a day to recover from the week. Suffice to say I feel our home life is pretty shit. When I complain about it I get lots of abuse like I am lazy, I have no ambition, and worse - a lecture on what it is to be successful. Further, how could I possibly understand what is needed to be successful as there are no successful people in my family. Did I say he has a big ego. After this latest barrage I feel my marriage is dead because I simply cannot get past how he spoke to me or insulted my family. Has anyone experienced anything like this?
