Mood:
I’d noticed my wife had been distant toward me for several months. I’d give her a kiss or hug and not get any reciprocation. I even had a dream that she was having an affair, which left me angry and depressed.
Last night I finally asked her about it, and she’s had enough. I can’t control my temper around the kids. I’m on a short fuse all the time. She still loves me, but the kids need a nurturing father, and I’m not it. We’d spoken about this before and I promised to get better, and though she noticed an improvement, it wasn’t enough.
I’d never hurt my family, but emotional abuse is still abuse. Geoffrey was asked at preschool to draw his family and I was nowhere in the picture. I’m either apathetic or angry most of the time at home, and Mellissa can’t take pretending to be happy for the kids anymore.
Long story short, anybody looking for a roommate?
