She says marriage isn't 50/50 all the time, and there will likely be times in the future when I am healthier than her (mentally and/or physically) and I will carry more weight than she will be able to then. Her kindness has really motivated me to do more around the house as I have started to get better.
Thanks, EM. That's great that you can recognize that in your spouse. When T explained it, it made total sense to me...just not sure if H will understand it so much...because it sort of skews to my benefit, not his. I worry MC will take H's side, too...or at least act like it's my overreacting to him (H)....maybe I need H to come to a session with T?

And it's probably really telling that most of the time, I'm like "Yay, we see MC tomorrow!" But I'm not feeling that right now...I just feel so disillusioned with him (doesn't help that he took us back a half hour late last week), and I guess H as well...
