Husband really putting it on thick
| Tue, 07-12-2005 - 9:52am |
Husband bought me a new computer Saturday. I've been wanting one for several years (old one is a piece of crap), but didn't have the money. He surprises me with a very nice, very expensive one and says that it is for all I do for the family.....Whatever. He told me that he was going to buy one and I told him I would rather him not because he thinks I am flirting with someone online or looking for someone to date online (the story changes). He said that buying it was a way for him to show that he trusted me....like that'll ever happen. I decided not to argue with him and let him buy the stupid thing, if he want's to spend money on me, hey let him. The thing is it only made me focus more on the abuse because in the cycle of abuse, in the calm phase can include buying presents. In my mind, it just makes him fit the profile of a classic abuser even more. He is still helping around the house, but it is gettin a little less and he is complaining how tired he is. Also, he is starting back saying things about my daughter to me about how much trouble I am going to have with her in the future. I figure it won't take long before he's back to his old self, honestly I'm surprised it's lasted this long him being nice.

Mine came by last night @ 9:45pm to show the kids a New (new to him), car he wants to buy. So that he can give our oldest the car that we have now... the catch he wants to cash in his 401k to get it. Which legally I don't think that he can. And he too has been coming over to cut the grass, fix a fence etc. The thing that gets me is he hardly gives me any money for the children it is like pulling teeth, he says that he can't afford to support 2 homes, not my problem I already work 2 jobs... maybe he should. Sorry for rambling on but I can relate!
