    Should I let my ex husband yell at me to keep the peace?

    No, you should not let him yell at you. He’s responsible for his actions, relationships and health. Him using you as a reason not to see his son, is 100% manipulative behaviour. There’s a reason he’s your ex husband and the joy to that is, you don’t have to put up with his bullsh*t.

    No I did not date and didn’t plan to date, for the first year. We were still living in the same house. Even though he wasn’t home much. I also had my children to think about and I wanted to focus on them and myself. Up until PTSD came into our life, we had a great and strong relationship. We...

    General How to deal with spouse and their anger and rage...…..

    You take care of yourself, so you have the energy to support him. Being ok with having a little space, so his focus is on himself. I know it’s easier said then done at times. I learned it the hard way. I didn’t find the forum until a couple of months into his therapy. I was lost and confused...

    I do understand. When I think about it now. I guess I just had to let go. As much as it hurt and it hurt like a b**ch. I don’t have control over his feelings or choices, only my own. If I didn’t save myself, he wouldn’t have had me to come back too. I realize how lucky I am . That when the...

    It does get worse before it gets better. It’s very important for you to learn and do self care. This is his journey to heal. If you can get into therapy for yourself, it would benefit you a great deal. As supporters we want to help or try to fix things. When we do that, we aren’t helping or...

    General How to deal with spouse and their anger and rage...…..

    I’m not sure I can add more, than what’s been said. Boundaries are one of the biggest things to set. You have every right to walk away, when your not being treated the way you deserve. I walk away and do something for myself. If my SO said something hurtful, I would wait until he was calm and...

    Sending you big hugs my friend. I’m sorry you had to experience hurt and disappointment. I think in the end you came out on a positive. I’m glad the surgery went well and you did have someone with you. Because you do deserve the support.

    Enforcing boundaries or being mean?

    We all have our different boundaries. You have yours, she has hers, I have mine. We all have a right to set them and by setting them, we are not being mean or petty. I think it’s great that your learning to set boundaries. People don’t know our boundaries until we show them. If your neighbor is...

    Divorcing my vet, concern for kids

    I agree about the child support. Most times an attorney like to go in with high , so there more wiggle room to negotiation. To be honest, I would be very surprised if he gets what he’s asking for. Because he only lives in a one bedroom. 4 kids, one bedroom would be hard to live in. Not just for...

    Divorcing my vet, concern for kids

    Sorry your going through this. I understand your trying to still support him. But you have to put your kids first. They don’t need to be around drinking, so yes it needs to be dealt with. I don’t know your laws, but here he wouldn’t be able to have the kids 45% of the time. Because he only has a...

    You said you hold some resentment and feel you have been lashing out the last couple of weeks. Did you tell her how you’ve been lashing out? Couples therapy isn’t about who did what. It’s about learning how to communicate. Learning to hear and try to understand the other persons Perception...
