Hum... let me think here. He always tells me I "act like a child" "have no motivation".

What part (if any) of this could possibly be valid?

Think hard before you answer ... this is not to trap you but to get you to do some introspection.

Yes, I am sure that the child is my husbands. I think maybe he feels he can't trust me so maybe he believes that the child is not his. Maybe he thinks I was with the OM after I came home to him. I was not with the OM and my husband with in the same time frame. When I came home to my husband I was willing to overcome all conflict and put forth what it takes to make our relationship work. When we decided that I would come home I agreed to make the changes that he needed and I wanted, to make him comfortable with me again. For the "act like a child" I guess maybe I joke around sometimes? He tells me that when we argue. A example is when I give in to a problem. We may have a disagreement about what to eat. When I tell him okay lets just eat what you want then we will get upset "don't act like a child just tell me what you want to eat". I admit I do enjoy to make him laugh acting stupid to make him smile. Yesterday he was mad when he got home from work because of my bills. We do not share money because he doesn't want to. He was mad about a late fee that was on one of my bills telling me I was stupid and a moron among other things. I decided to tell him that I would talk about ANYTHING he wanted when he calmed down and didn't call me names. As for motivation, I feel that no matter what I do it will never be good enough for him. I can work 12 hours a day, make dinner, and have the house clean and he will still say I have no motivation. That is one thing that I do have. I have motivation to make our house a home, to be a good wife for him, and to be a good mother when the time comes. I am no wonder woman but I do try!
