Perpetual Denial

So ladies,

I’ve been married for around seven years now. Was in a relationship with him for two years before the marriage. So a total of eight years together.

He is very loving towards me. Takes care of me, doesn’t abuse or scream and shout at me. But he does that to everyone in his life. Friends, family, colleagues and random people on the street as well.

He has only a handful of friends and they too make references to his erratic behaviour and anger, jokingly of course but then they don’t have to live with him and witness this behaviour all the time.

When I confront him about his abnormal behaviour he denies it point blank. It starts with I never said that to I didn’t mean it like that. He tells me I always see the worst in him. That I am being paranoid. But EVERYONE agrees with me. Those people who have actually made the effort of communicating what he does to him are immediately cut off from his life.

Now I have had enough of this. How do you talk to someone about what they do when they never accept that they do this? I am tired. I am always walking on egg shells around him. Always trying to do some sort of damage control. Translating what he meant so that it doesn’t sound as assholic as it really was. I have introduces him to my friends over the years. And even they can sense something is off.

He has never made friends with anyone at his work. Always in contradiction with his manager or colleagues.

I have suggested therapy. But then he doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with his childlike behaviour. He is extremely immature even though he’s 37 now.

So I need help you guys. I am seriously at a loss and at my wits end. I think I’m going insane.
