Hello wounded1,

He needs a wake up call, a serious one. Large egos are crammed full of "self" importance and rarely takes into consideration the thoughts and feelings of others.

That is why a wake up call is usually the only thing that gets through to them. Because within an inflated ego there is true horror if they are shown or made to think that they have not done anything perfectly.

I really wish you luck with this. I had to live with a man with an inflated ego for 28 years, only when I left did he do anything about his drinking and he stopped whoring. Too late for the marriage but he did it so he could say to me "I could've done it all along but you weren't worth it". Never let your own self respect be a reflection of someone elses behaviours.
