I think it's why our relationship suffers.. is that I'm now addressing these issues and exposing him to himself. He gets upset, so he seeks out his family and friends to counteract how I've made him feel by feeding them stories for sympathies.
It's sad because I feel like I'm looking at him as an outsider now, and seeing these patterns play out. It's hard to get past it, even if I'm misreading a particular scenario, I'm unable to see him how I used to.. and it's killing him. Poor guy.
