I’m sorry to hear about what you’re going through. That’s a really tough situation. I can understand why you’d want your child to grow up with two parents under the same roof, but what do you think would be better: growing up in a house with two parents, one of whom acts like a monster, or growing up in a house with one parent who is able to control their temper? I’m not suggesting it would be easy to get a divorce, or that you should–I just got the impression it’s something you’ve considered and maybe want. Am I right?

How do you find happiness when your spouse is a complete monster and yells at you and your 19 month old child and you don’t want a divorce because you believe a child should grow up with both parents under the same roof. We tried counseling and it didn’t help and I’ve also asked her to to go see a psycholigist and she says there is nothing wrong with her.

I know all about being a perfectionist! I was actually just telling someone how this has served me well at times, and crippled me at others. It’s such a great feeling to forgive myself for making mistakes. I’m glad you’re able to do that in this situation and focus on the good things!

This is important for a perfectionist like me to read. I recently made a huge mistake at my new job (which I was so excited about/saw as the fulfillment of my life), and it still hurts, but I know that things will improve if I focus on the good stuff in life. You can’t be perfect in life.
