'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

You may have erred, Gud... but so did your wife. How long ago did she express a wish to see the park? Did she go over the plan of where you were going to drive in detail? Did you two allot hours of travel with a break indicated so that you could stop at the park? And why didn't she say anything until you were well past it?

If she's heaped all the decision making on you, then she isn't holding up her end of the bargain. She just gets the pleasure of castigating you for the 'mistakes' you make. Maybe that gives her pleasure, or at least lets her put some of her unhappiness off on another being.

Cindy, fingers crossed on the surgery!

I led an exercise class today! I mean, low impact, mostly seated in a chair type exercises, but hey.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Best thoughts for you and your son, Cindy!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Surgery~ma for your son, Cindy.

Good luck, Cindy! And Zen, I'm sure you'll find something better.

Gud, please listen to your wise friends. Would you allow anyone to treat your child the way you talk about yourself? You deserve more kindness from both yourself and your wife.

What is even happening?

Thanks everyone.

Thrive to spite them

Gud if your wife really wanted to go to that state park she would have mentioned it more than once. She would have said something as you got close, or made sure y'all had enough time to see it. And if you accidentally drove past it she could have used her words and said "hey that's the turn for the state park" like a reasonable grown up does.

Except your wife is not reasonable. She is manipulative and petty and abusive. So instead of speaking up and making sure she sees the state park she really wants to see (or that the oil gets changed in her car or dinner is done to her standards or whatever else) she makes up reasons to emotionally and verbally abuse you.

Here are some links I hope you will use.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Cindy, thinking of you and your son. Lots of ~ma.

Gud, I really hope you can listen to what the people here are saying. There is nothing wrong with you. You are a good human being. You are not responsible to keep everyone around you happy or make 100% of their wishes come true. Please take care of yourself.
