    I have a wife whom speaks to me disrespectfully and condecendingly all the time, she has a constant second guessing attitudde towards me. When I bring things up that are to do with our kids or other matters, the first thing she always says is "when were you going to tell me that"
    When ever I bring things up (its very infrequently these days cause why would I line up for another shilacking) she gets frustrated and says I should have told her earlier! It seems I am really bad for her, she gets so frustrated with me and has done for many years we have been married 24 years, I am unhappy and have no peace in my life, i feel so drained out by living with her. What do I do, I really feel i want to take a new start which would at least after some adjustment give me peace. I love my 3 kids (15 girl, 18 and 20 boys) and would miss them greatly, but I am just so empty.

    Please give me some guidance.

    well im not a professional but i have been married for 27 years and biggest advice i can give anyone is to do one thing........... communicate. theres really no way around this. you absolutely must sit down with your partner and address one issue at a time. just one; come to a compromise, settle it, then move on to the next issue. it's so basic and straightforward its often times overlooked.

    The greatest barrier in our marriage has been his mistrust of me. Not because of anything I've ever done in our marriage though. He holds my past against me (though mine pales in comparison to his) and is constantly accusing me of committing adultery or thinking about it. For four years I've tried to prove how much I love him and it never lasts. If I dont conduct myself to his exact liking (the requirements of which would be considered controlling) then I MUST be cheating at best and at worst, Im a disobedient wife. It has definitely cut our communication because I just refuse to listen to his ranting accusations anymore or endure his intimidation when he starts calling family/employer/friends when I wont listen anymore. Is there any coming back from that?
