Not a question, just a thank you for posting the comment about being his air... I hope more women realize what damage they can do, not just by the casual criticism.. which I could handle. But I would rather no one else have to live in constant defeat and failure. I have gotten used to failing at everything, nothing is ever good enough, nothing ever will be. I got used to living without air and it's a feeling much like drowning....

You are not alone, in fact, I think only 10-15% of marriages get the kind of affirmation I speak about.  I know you know this (because I have said it several different ways)…but you get what you will accept.  The respect you get from your wife (or husband) is hugely based on what you set up in the first thirty days, and what you continue to accept daily, weekly, and monthly.  Personally, I would have a heart to heart conversation about this.  Roommate marriages stink.  I believe it is never too late to make dramatic changes in your marriage but undoing years of one thing to get to another will take time.  Good luck and don’t give up on it.
