Looks like my husband and I are going to be separating at least and probably divorcing eventually...
Predictably, because I told him to shape up or ship out, NOW he wants to try. Because I am a "nice person" or a sap, depending on your outlook, I am letting him try. He won't succeed because I have been telling him that he's an arse and asking him to change for 14 years. And he has singularly failed to manage it. So... it feels like prolonging the pain.
My problem is how angry I am. Every nice thing that he attempts (and he is attempting, got to give him credit) is like rubbing salt in an open wound. And it makes me so mad. Our relationship is only important to him now that his cushy life is threatened.
How do I deal with this anger? Any tips or tricks? All I have is unhealthy coping mechanisms...
