Sorry, but I have to tell you that my DH is the polar opposite of yours Forshelby. But I'm guessing you expected most people to say that when you asked the questions you asked. In all honesty, if every response came back and said 'yes, my DH is like yours Forshelby' would it make it any easier for you? Would it make it any easier for you to get through those times?

Please, focus on what is right for you and your son, what you are willing to tolerate and what you aren't. That's what matters. Every relationship and family works differently to the next. What works for one, won't work for the next. Only you can decide if yours works for you. GL
