hi Elaine, I don't think that he appreciates anything you do, especially when you want to talk about your parents separating, because it's never easy for any child to understand why or what has been going on behind closed doors, so I hope that you get back to us if you want to talk about this.
I know how my two sons felt when my wife divorced me and she had her reasons which I do accept With regard to your partner I'm sure you would be able to find someone who will return the love, respect and companionship you are wanting, a r/ship should go hand in hand, but that's not what is happening here.
He wants to be in control, but a r/ship doesn't have any control, it goes by talking to each other about everything you want to discuss.
Please look after yourself and tell him 'it's time to go', and don't be tricked by him saying that he will improve, if you stay together then everything will be OK for a couple of days/weeks and then it will only go back to how it was. Geoff.
