Guest guest Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 My soon to be x husband does that also...he sais that I'm the selfish one. Even though he's had his way our entire married life. He's crushed every goal or dream I've ever had. He sais that I need the counselor because I've been such a horrible wife. I should just accept him as he is. Funny, many people say what a sweet girl I am. Not him. He's the victim. I read a short book called In sheeps clothing. It's about recognizing and dealing with manipulation...great to read. I also read Understanding the Borderline Mother By Lawson. But, that's very advanced and a hard read...It's so emotionally accurate and draining that I can only read about a paragraph at a time. So, I think I'll quit it for awhile and try the one you're recommending, " Surviving a Borderline Parent.
