Although I did discipline (time-outs, being grounded, loss of privileges, etc, I never used physical punishment) I don't think I made it clear that no one has the universe revolving around them. Also - and worst - as things broke down, and got worse, I was so lost and confused by everything that was happening, I didn't ask for help which probably contributed to the rapid down-hill deteriorating of not only our relationship but their mental health.

We had a great relationship for almost 20 years and then all of a sudden everything broke down & I couldn't handle it.
I hope she has a change of heart, gets her life together, and your relationship improves.
