Thanks for writing back Mckell. I need to clarify something
about my statement about filling needs? I meant that no one person can fill everyones' needs, and that it's impossible to expect that from someone. Not that you had to fill his needs or him yours!! I was simply saying it's impossible to do it all without some 3rd party opinion. Sometimes husbands get hurt that they can't fullfill all the needs of the wife. They feel like less of a man if they don't make them happy. They don't realize that there's no such thing as SUPERMAN!!!!
On the other hand, he just may think that therapy is just a lot of hogwash and you're just doing it to spite him? Now that's a mans mentality in my book. It took me several months to convince my husband that I needed help. He just tuned it out, as he can't handle disarray very well. He had to see damage before he opened his eyes. That still
left his brain paralyzed to the fact that I wasn't whole.
He would get jealous over not being the top dog anymore.
He use to pout and stammer around, and ask why things can't be pleasant? I had no answer for that.
30 years now and he's just beginning to see what I was talking about with this disability.
Now he doesn't ask me stupid questions...........anymore.
AMEN TO THAT!!!!
