Promises now are irrelevant. He refused to listen when he was supposed to and that isn't going to change. It's unfair and selfish of him to expect you to endure misery so he can be happy.
I have a support group friend who says her ex is a wolf in sheep's clothing. She thinks of him that way to remind herself of the hurt and pain he caused for 15 years when she feels he is saying things to manipulate her. It seems to be working because she doesn't put up with his antics at all anymore.
I know the next few days are going to be difficult for you with your father's services. I wish you all the best while you manage this. I'm sure you will get through this and you will be ok. ((hugs))

Thanks so much.
I feel like my husband is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
And. you are correct about him not listening to me when it mattered. I tried to talk to him about the insults and the fights without having to threaten a divorce. I even wrote out a full page on paper and he read it - all about the fights and the insults. What does he do? He ignores it and fights with me the very next weekend and after our couples therapy session.
