I have expressed thanks to all of you for your input. Yesterday was a particulary bad day, then he apologized to me and two minutes later when his ex-girlfriend called for support in a dysfunctional relationship of her own, he threw a tantrum like a three year old. I am convinced that he is suffering from the FDB syndrome that some of us identified in another thread (still giggling over that one!)
I am just so tired of living life from one crisis to another. No, I have no hope that he will change yet somehow I have to summon the courage to make the change that is so apparently necessary. Change is always scary for me and I am so afraid of rocking the boat. Right now, I am dealing with it the best I can but I must admit that I am afraid of the confrontation necessary.
Cowering in cowardice,
