You keep waiting for him to change. You’re tired of paying the bills by yourself, cleaning by yourself, taking care of the kids by yourself, and being taken advantage of . He doesn’t even want to work because no job is good enough, or because he’s tired of his boss “disrespecting” him, or some other lame excuse. And besides all of that, he doesn’t even treat you right.
So what’s a girl to do? That all depends on what you want. If you want to kick him to the curb, then you don’t need to read any further. BUT, if you want your husband, if you want your marriage, if you want him to change, let’s continue.

Cognitively, we KNOW this is not love–to be lied to and cheated on. But because he said THOSE words–”I love you”–we are willing to tolerate just about anything because of how THOSE words made us FEEL. Our heart tells us he loves us, but his actions are screaming that he doesn’t.
Do you find yourself in a lot of senseless arguments? Maybe you argue and fuss about the same things over and over again. Or, maybe you aren’t arguing about the same things, but you’re arguing with the same people. These folks know just how to push your buttons.
