Til death
I've always been the type that took the vows seriously. And figured I'd just deal. Of course unless there's cheating involved. But after 9 yr, I am greatly considering ending it with my wife. Too much manipulation and disrespect.

Time and real life sometimes make us question our ideals. We should not have to "just deal" except maybe in small micro doses. We reach a limit of disrespect or missing connection and see being married "til death" is not realistic.
Sometimes the worst is not someone cheating, but the many other small things that add up every day.
Right. And I've dealt with a lot emotional abuse throughout the years. And she also alienated my adult daughter.

I get it. I lost my connection with spouse was not the big error but the continual mini-issues. I have spent years trying to repair but find I cannot unsee how much spouse disrespects my wants or needs
I could not pretend I did not see it kinds like finding Where's Waldo and you see it anytime you look.
someday hopefully your child will see thru what was said as untrue or out of context.
Well. With my daughter, she completely ruined her relationship with her, but slowly my relationship and hers is getting better.
Have you suggested therapy?
Been there done that, bought the T-shirt
