Really? Oh yes.
I mean, pandering to the cat and dog to the extent that she'll allow them to drink the remainder of her milk from her breakfast bowl out of the bowl itself.
That, for me is just disgusting.
Oh yes, I said to stop it, too right I did. But she won't be told what to do, will she. Nope, what we'll do instead is to make sure 'Dad's' not around when it happens instead.
I mean, what the animals want is far more important than what I and the kids want.
Not a cross word to the cat about crapping on the carpet, or the dog for insanely barking. Bless them, she loves them and they love her.
But secretly, behind closed doors, when her friend, neighbours and peripheral family aren't around, she like an agressive, arguementative and confrontational animal. She'll be as rude and agressive with me and the kids as she likes. After all, what can we do? We're not going to leave, are we?
Phew, that's that blog entry done. I can look back on this day as a reminder in writing about how I feel about my life with her.

I occasionally let my dogs drink the excess milk out of my bowl; saves waste and its going in the dishwasher where it will be cleaned in very hot water before being used again. And if my partner told me not to do it in a demanding manner it would make me want to do it more often. If my partner explained gently that he has a phobia about it, I would put the milk in a dog bowl next time. That's called compromise. I wouldn't shout at the cat for crapping on the carpet or the dog for barking, as they are animals and don't understand their offense - the matters do need dealing with but not by shouting. This doesn't mean they're more important to me or loved more by me than my kids or my partner, just that I think you should treat all living things in a loving, respectful, APPROPRIATE manner. I'm by nature a quiet non-confrontational creature, who hates to upset anyone but if constantly treated like a recalcitrant child can also be argumentative and confrontational, especially if I feel like I am fighting for my rights and personal identity. I eventually left my husband because he was always so insistent his way was right and there could be no compromise. I certainly had faults, all human beings are flawed in some way but I would have been happy to help learn from him, as I hoped he could learn from me to deal with his equally flawed self. However, this didn't happen and we both, and our kids, ended up miserable. Marriage is based on loving compromise - without it each individual ends up at odds with the other. |

Just when I think I see where you are coming from, you say something that makes me think I don't. Hhhhhhhmmmmmmm! So I will say nothing, until I have read a few more blogs and can try and see where exactly you are coming from. Like I said on your previous blog, just think you have realised that the traits you describe about your wife you are no longer happy to live with. Sarah |
