OT - Depressed and feeling worthless. An update

Well, the hubby and I talked... A LOT last night. It didn't start off too good. A lot of yelling on his part and trying to put all of this on me and being pissed that I was snooping through his stuff yet again... I told him we needed to talk and he pushed and pushed and pushed to get the discussion started over the phone when that is NOT how I wanted it to go down.

Hubby seems to think he has larger cajones when he's not talking to me face to face.

Either way, after he got home the conversation took a turn toward productive. I gave him the option of counseling or divorce. He told me that this was his issue and that it wasn't because I was doing anything wrong. I told him I won't be going through this all again, so he better get a grip on this stuff. There are other cir****tances that I don't feel comfortable telling any of you about that make this a little bit different for me.

Think I'm stupid if you will, but I'm not going to let my marriage go without one hell of a fight.

Thank you all, though, for your support and advice and encouragement.

I don't know the full back ground of your story, but keep fighting if it is worth it.  I am having some issues at my house right now too, that I will post about later.

Good luck!

You really should get into counseling though. It is best to have an UNbiased party there that can give both of you feedback and work through this with you.

I just seen your last post and well...If you feel he is worth fighting for then I wanted to wish you the best of luck. 

I also agree that counseling would be a big help in this situation.

Hope it works out for the best for you both.
