She's bullying you my love.
You will never win with this woman as she doesn't care about YOU. She only cares about herself.
Go to your mum & get some TLC.Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud.0 -
She's still trying to control you. If she was that upset about the whole thing she would be doing her god damn best to convince you to work it out. Not saying make your mind up and text me!! I know its like pulling a plaster off but you need to go . When it actually hits home soon that you won't be going back and giving into her demands then she will try and crawl back. Her whole reaction to this is how its making her feel about waiting for a decision. IF it was my husband saying this to me I would make sure I would do everything I could to keep him not play mind games
good luck0 -
I've been following this from the start but have kept quiet. Can I just wholeheartedly say that I completely agree with Emmaj30; there's no way I'd be doing what your wife is doing I'm afraid and I'd be doing everything in my power to work things out including giving you some much needed space and time.

Wish this topic had been here in december 2012 or i had the courage to post the same
seems to me that the harsh reality is that she has made her decision which is that she wants here current lifestyle with you not part of it but still wants someone there as a backup, hence the controlling demeanour.
This isn't a nice situation to be in.0 -
I keep thinking that this is all my fault :-( :-( :-(
Please realise this is not your fault. You do not deserve to be hurt, to be insulted and ridiculed, to be treated like a doormat, to be left feeling inadequate, have love and affection withheld from you, told what to do when and then receive nothing but criticism and condemnation. You do not deserve to be abused in any way, shape or form. It is natural that you feel confused and upset and need time to think everything over. Someone you love, care about and trust has broken that trust, turned against you and left you feeling lost and numb.The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.0 -
Maybe I should just text her that its over.
Im at my bros having a chat.
one thing ive noticed is that when you talk about you almost feel as though you are making a mountain out of a molehill. You end up thinking, maybe im being too stubborn? Maybe im being harsh?
if I dont answer her im worried about how she will react to me when I see her next be it tonight or tomorrow.
p.s. holiday is in uk and if it had to be cancelled it wouldnt be the end of the world.0 -
Don't text her. Let her stew. If you text her, you're allowing her to bully you still.0

What you are feeling now is what a bully makes a victim think.0
