OMG Scully
This is the pain I live with, watching the relationship with my husband go from bad but salvagable to worse and impossible. I realize the stage was set "before conversion" but after the fact makes therapy, etc pretty much impossible.
Not impossible of course if I turn a blind eye to the destructive pusher. I've tried as best I could for about 4 years now, but the last ties have been severed, even when I try & think that I'm only talking to a disease. - the disease is the surrender of independant thought - that eventually destroys relationships, love, trust, morale.
The pimps win.
Thank you Scully. Sometimes it is hard to put into words.
