Re: narcissistic husband

Thank you so much for you post. And I want to say Hi, to Blue Rose.
I appreciate all the support I have been given. I was unable to be on the computer during the weekend. . . since my husband is home.
The counseling went terrible. I was so angry and I wanted for the counselor to see how much my husband didn't care, but as you stated, the counselor was unable to see it. Even when I re-iterated the fact that he left me dieing on the bathroom floor.
He told my husband and I that, my husband had learned from that "mistake". That my husband could change. He said I should keep a journal of all the good things he does for me and all the bad things.
Well since that meeting, I've already had two bad things. None of course as serious as 2 years ago. But all the same, my husband just doesn't understand when he hurts me. He doesn't know when to comfort me. My children ask me, "why is dad so mean." Not physically, but emotionally and being unsupportive.
I have not made any decisions as to whether or not, to say or to go, but I have decided to live my life differently.
I am no longer going to rely upon him for ANYTHING! Some how I hope to get some friends back into my life. But I have a feeling the reason I lost the ones I had, when I got married, is that they too saw something in him, they didn't like.
I will have to keep my friends and my spouse apart from each other.
When I first was married, I made new friends. But after one time of meeting my husband, they never call or come over anymore.
Even our neighbor who lives just a mile down the road, will not be around my husband. She will, about twice a year, get together with me and have lunch. But she just will have nothing to do with my husband.
Please keep posting and talking with me. I may not be able to answer every day, but I really need the friendship.
Take care everyone and hope to hear and write to all of you soon!!!
