[QUOTE="DoneDad, post: 746430, member: 17244"] This is a quote from a different thread, but it so fits. Forcing her crisis on us. Over and over. Her magic words that always work are: I’m pregnant with no where to go. This is IT. She’s going to keep doing the same thing. I’m starting to think my wife is too. But I can change. [I] [/I] In this situation, I’m going to use these I statements. Telling her, “You need to do x” is a waste of time. Wife and I are in therapy together and we go again on Tuesday. Right now we just don’t know what to do and feel defeated and trapped in the same situation we’ve been in before. Great advice. Reading this, which was about a different situation, is really helping me get a handle on what I need to do. Wife and I are seeing therapist on Tuesday, so we can start there with getting on the same page. [/QUOTE]
