I really can't help you with a mental issue as I am not a mental health professional. Have you considered couples counseling? I really think that you are just trying to do the right things and you can't change someone else's responses but you can change yours. I hope that things settle down for you. I will say that it is a little harder to help when there is so much information and so many questions as I did my best to give you support. I hope this helps you some.

Thank you for your in-put. I know he would never consider any counseling. I've mentioned it in the past and got a look as is I were asking him to take me to the moon! I'm just really curious as to how many other men and women out there (who are in a relationship), think that I was out of line feeling the expectation of getting a portion of financial support for things that he benefits from too (housing, food, cable, phone, internet, electric, laundry, etc), and if it's perfectly normal to make other obligations that are not necessities a number 1 priority.
