I am a BS whose husband has been taken in for the past year and a half. What I am learning is that because I made it so easy for him to return and not make change he is taking advantage of me.He wants change, but only from me. He hates life, but is unwilling to fix it (refuses conseling and committng to a plan without playing the game that he doesn't understand any of these MB books) and I am the reason for all the pain.

What I want to know is what thing changed your feelings and made you want to make change in your marrige??

Mind you my H likes to avoid conflict.

I would like to know the same thing. My FWH agreed to give me what I needed for a couple months. Now he wants the recovery to be by his terms and not my needs. However, he is very confrontational.

Why are we working so hard to repair our marriages and our WS's are not?
