true although they are basing it on things recorded from his childhood and then with our son. The two are very much alike.

We will be going to counseling soon. We were just waiting for benefits to kick in at his work, they have now.

The only thing I will caution you on is: be careful how you react to your anger and frustration. It's easy to explode. (As every human knows)
I explode way too easily but he also knows how to make me explode, he knows all the words that hurt the deepest. He pulled the BPD card and walked away. Now he is acting like nothing happened...

At least our Thanksgiving supper turned out great.
