[QUOTE="TheWalrus, post: 679022, member: 19905"] The games do get exhausting. The constant "raising the stakes" to try to manipulate you into whatever it is they are seeking from you. I agree with M. He knows what to do and is making a choice not to do it, either because it isn't important to him or because he is trying to manipulate you. My therapist pointed out that my daughter seems "content" with what she is doing; I am the only one upset with her couch surfing, lying, and using others for food, housing, transportation... Perhaps this doesn't bother him? Perhaps he, too, is content getting by however he can as long as he doesn't have to take true responsibility? I agree with my therapist - I think she IS content. What infuriates me is that she KNOWS how it damages ME and uses that against me to get whatever she can with no regard to the pain she causes. Sometimes I hate her, too. I hope that he has moved on and even realized you mean business and takes an active role in finding somewhere to go, even if it is a shelter. He may not. He may not for awhile. But for your peace, he cannot be allowed to punish you with his bad choices, using your love for him against you to break you down. [/QUOTE]
