[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 420598, member: 393"] husband was infamous for shutting down; I'd get angry ~ nothing happened. We often met in a restaurant - neutral territory & discussed many of the issues. For my husband it was like the tweedles - I had to repeat myself often. However, I did it in a very heartfelt & sweet natured way. Eventually some of it sunk in. When we had the income, husband agreed to bring in a cleaning service along with a service for the lawn & snow removal. husband also promised to step away from the computer for family time on agreed upon times & events. It really worked for us. I'm not a screamer nor can I vomit up negative emotions - makes me literally ill to do so. I often emailed husband. That was a way that we could communicate with-o saying mean or hurtful things we cannot take back. DF has a lot of good suggestions ~ I only shared what worked here. [/QUOTE]
