'Sleeper'
Natter 74: Ready or Not
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I implore you to get counseling, either with your wife or just you. You desperately need an objective party to sort out this relationship.
This. So much this. While couple's counseling would be ideal, you being able to see a counselor on your own so you can get some impartial feedback is just as important.
Gud, your wife is being unreasonable. That's not fair to you, and that's not fair to the kids.
I'm with Steph like a MILLION TIMES
She is using this as a weapon to beat you down.
Drive the old car to a dealership and sell it. Done.
If it's so important to her that the old car be fixed, let her take care of it. She's clearly able to drive a car, so she can drive the Sentra to a mechanic. Why does it have to be you?
Timelies all!
What the Buffistas said, Gud.
Meanwhile, my folks have left(very early this morning). Love them, but somehow it's more exhausting parenting when they're around(and Gary isn't) than parenting by myself.
I actually think separate counseling for you, Gud, is even more important than going together. You've got to hear someone you trust say how effed up this all is. (I mean, it could just be us, but maybe better someone you pay.)
>At this point I'm just looking forward to going to sleep tonight, unfortunately I'll have to wake up.
Gud, this sentences terrifies me. You should not feel this way, and I think you do really need to seek some help- maybe starting with your PCP or your employee assisstance program, if you do not feel you have the energy to find a counselor?
Gud, the way you are being treated is abusive. You deserve better. You deserve to be treated with kindness and consideration.
Gud - I hope you will look for counseling.
