Living with my wife is a nightmare – I can't say or do anything right
09/14/2024 03:16 PM
DEAR DEIDRE: MY wife is constantly picking fights with me.
Whatever comes out of my mouth is incorrect or wrong.
Every day, I dread waking up and dealing with her because I know we will have an argument about something.
A few days ago she told me off because I burned the pizza I was cooking.
I kept apologising but she would not let it go, calling me useless and worthless.
I'm 40 and my wife is 35. We have two lovely children and were happily married until a year or two ago when this began.

She was always lovely and caring towards me but now she's just cold.
MORE FROM DEAR DEIDRE
DEIDRE SAYS: This is not a nice situation for anyone in your home.
Think back to when her behaviour changed. Has something happened?
Can you ask her about what has changed for her and let her know how her treatment makes you feel.
Tell her it's un-acceptable for her to speak to you in this manner at any point in your lives.
My support pack Standing Up For Yourself will help.
