You're not being crazy at all Leaj. He is. He is being a classic example of emotional abuse...the apathy towards you, the insults, the degradation of your self esteem...all that are hallmarks of emotional abuse. His goal in telling you that you won't find someone like him (and believe me, given what I've read, that's probably a GOOD thing) is to make you afraid to leave him by virtue of fear of loneliness. Don't believe that, not for a moment. It's a baseless lie on his part.

If he's unwilling to go to couples counseling and seemingly unwilling to put forth effort into the relationship...I can't see how this can work. I am sorry. But I do think that what you feel is in the best interest of you and your child is the best route to go. Right now, I can't see this guy being part of the "best interest."

I do hope things work out for the best Leaj, and do know you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Hugs,
Harley
