Unhappy dear Pam

that indeed does NOT sound good at all. but it goes well beyond being "unsupportive" and into verbally abusive. HE has a problem. now question is, is it a persistent one, or is this a phase.

is his behavior with you commonplace, or recurrent? Does he drink? What about mental health issues of his own?

Or is this unprecedented behavior on his part? If this is the case, do you think he could be having a tough time with something you don't know of - say, stressing about something at work - and taking it out on you? Again, if this is not a common behavior... perhaps you approach him and try to talk when he is calm?

have you guys ever been in counseling together, or considered it?

(btw, no, i don't have a supportive spouse... i don't have a spouse, period. )

hang in there.
