Thanks
Thank you for your thoughtful reply. Yes I have had masochistic tendencies due to my REALLY horrible childhood (My father lined us up in the living room and was going kill us all and commit suicide, in the way you see on the news sometimes fathers do, and that's just the tip of the iceberg).
I stayed with her because I didn't believe I deserved any better. Now I'm too old to start anew family and another life so I stay with her, but I have begun to ask myself why do I continue to stay?
Anyway, thank you. I've been to counseling but they usually gloss over this stuff and want to talk about the here and now. So it was helpful to hear from another perspective.
