I’m tired of being disrespected by my husband

Hey Rosie,

I am having a rough time with my hubby. We are bickering about everything, be it money, the kids, his spending, disappearing for many hours; it’s becoming a nightmare. I think I’m done. We’ve been together for over 18 years and I’m tired of being disrespected. Our kids will be out of the house in 2 years what should I do?

Tired of trying

Dear Tired of trying,

No one can tell you what to do, but what I do know is that only you can decide if you want to stay or go.

It sounds like your hubby is going through a change of some sort (unless he’s been doing this for a while), then I guess you are at the end of your rope. This maybe the time for you to make a list as to pros and cons to your relationship. It could be a good gauge for you to decide how you may want to proceed.  

Of course you may also want to take the children and their stability at the moment into consideration. Do not forget that you can seek some personal counseling as well.

By the way have you spoken to him about your feelings? It is important for you to give him an opportunity to respond to your concerns. Whichever way it unfolds you must follow your heart. Good luck to you.

Rosie
