...when all he contributes is money and bah humbug spirit? I am in no way being extravagant, and - again - have to face criticism about every single present I have bought, including the ones for HIS family because he can't be arsed to think about any of it he's at work all the time...I am bloody furious, I am not well, and he knows it, and have been doing ALL the thinking, shopping, wrapping, decorating and generally trying to make xmas a nice memory for the children (11 &13) and all he bloody does all the time is bloody complain. Would these be ground for divorce? Alternatively can someone recommend a good monastery in a muslim country where I could emigrate in nov 2014? I can't be doing this again next year, and it'a too bloody early for wine. Xmas Angry

And if he ever tried to criticise any Xmas decision he'd be on the receiving end of an unpleasant response!

DH sorts his family. I sort mine. Simple as.

He doesn't keep me short, we have a joint account and if I wanted I COULD go and buy whatever...and sometimes I do, but it's the never-ending complaining and grumbling and criticising that does my head in!

This IS abusive. And whats with the "helping out" around the house. How is he helping out He lives there . Hes just clearing up his own mess and after HIS kids is he not Xmas Confused
