I’m so tired of it.
All I do is ask for basic human rights from my husband. I ask to be respected, loved, and not talked down to but apparently those are expectations he can’t meet (his words) so when I say fine if you can’t treat me like a human I’m leaving until he can figure it out. Our daughter deserves so much more than this and I’m not raising her to think she should be talked down to and I’m not messing her up emotionally by fighting with him in front of her. But apparently that makes me a terrible person. I literally feel so demeaned and worthless and when he talks to me it’s very obvious that he’s tying to make me feel that way. I can’t deal with it anymore. I’m tired of getting ready for work in the morning and seeing nothing but ugliness in the mirror. I’m tired of being so worried about what my daughter will think is acceptable from a future husband. I’m tired of being scared to spend money I work for too. I’m tired of being accused of being greedy and selfish when I haven’t even gotten my hair cut in 4 months just so my daughter can have an awesome first birthday. I’m tired of wanting to be treated like a person but it’s an unreasonable request.
