Is my relationship worth saving?

WOWZER!!!! I have just spent the best part of 2 hours reading through all the posts on this thread.... It's so nice to see genuine replies back offering support(why I love this forum so much). I hope things have improved over the last few weeks since your last post and all is okay?

Whatever you have decided is your decision and only you know what is right for you. whatever the outcome I hope you are happier and in a better place emotionally too.

I told him that he'd been a good dad to DD most of the time, but sometimes had been awful to her too, like when she was about 5 and was struggling to read a book from school, every time she made a mistake he made her start again from the beginning and it took hours for the poor thing to finish as she got more and more upset, I feel so guilty about not stopping it but he was always so strict that he was able to parent in his own way. She hates reading now....

The effing absolute !!!!!!!, please do whatever you can to change this

Just a quick message to say we're thinking of you. Hope you're feeling more positive and stronger in yourself, and better able to work through whatever decisions you have made.

I've come way too late to this thread and I think the OP's BF is far worse/long term anyway but just for anyone else who comes across it, a lot of this behaviour is very like my Dad who after 3 years of crazy mood swings and behaviour we were literally at our last tether with but when we threatened to leave him he got help and was then diagnosed with a pretty severe mental illness and is now having counselling and medication and is so so different, much more back to his old self.

He'll always be a bit selfish and snappy, but he's still my Dad. We shouldn't always assume somebody has just become a monster, there's a reason you've loved them for 25 years x
