[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 764690, member: 18958"] This is very perplexing. It's almost as if he's gaslighting you, to avoid taking responsibility for himself. Have you asked him if he wants a divorce? I'm not recommending this, but I am wondering as you are what is his motivation to keep acting in ways that will aggravate. If he is not listening to you, maybe the thing to do is to deeply listen to him. To hear what is bothering him. Not about you, but about his life and his feelings. Maybe he is depressed after retiring from a job that was so demanding and all-consuming. Maybe he doesn't know how to live now or what to do. Maybe he is acting out to make you feel instead of dealing with himself. He would not be the first person to do this. He may be just lost and need your help. __ [/QUOTE]
