VENT / What has your "A" Broken of YOURS?
AH's truck has been messed up for MONTHS. (Alternator)
FIL has offered to pay to fix it SEVERAL times. AH "just never got around to it..."
6am this morning, I get jolted out of bed and told "come help me jump the truck"
Go out in my pjs. (I was still asleep so I didn't really feel the COLD until we got out there)
Now, my hood won't pop... so we can't jump it.
We try to push the truck uphill into the driveway... haha, as if that would work.
Then he suggests I use my car to push the truck.
I indulge him, and since the car is low and the truck is high, the car just goes under and doesn't do much.
I tell him I don't want to F up my car to do this, and we go inside so he can call in to work about his car... again.
He calls in, grabs my keys, and goes outside. I ask him what he's doing... he tells me not to worry about it.
He somehow manages to push the truck partially into the driveway with the car. CRACKING THE GRILL PLATE OF MY CAR in the process.
Then, he has the NERVE to say I'm acting like a Bitch when I am pissed off about it.
AND it's NOT HIS FAULT because the truck rolled back on it.
WHAT!?
He can't believe I'm mad about it. ha!
Then he calls FIL who leaves work to come jump him off and take the truck to the shop.
... and he can't figure out why I would want to leave? HA!

Just recently was left with a useless computer hours before having to submit homework to the online college I attend.
Had a 2006 Nissan Altima (lost it in bk), but he backed it into a pole causing $2k worth of damage and was told I was a materialistic Bivch for caring that he had wrecked it. Mind you it had a backup camera and I was in the car with him when it happened and he told me I was CRAZY and he had it under control. Never paid ONE DIME or even cared he did this. My mom told me to leave him then, wish I would have listened.
So many other countless things he has ruined or stolen from me to list.
I am the idiot still around.

I'm embarrassed to say that I am the one who broke things when he was drunk-he could be so peaceful & calm sitting on the couch, while i was the one who acted out of control. It used to make me so angry & hopeless feeling, but now i am working on ME.

Besides going through a couple of couches and a general trashing of the family room, the biggest thing was we used to have two single garage doors with a pier in the middle and one day I get the call is that she mixed up the brake and gas and plowed through the middle pier and garage doors.
Now we have one big garage door for the 2 car garage.

I had more things broken than i can count. And things in the house: doors, windows, dishes, chairs. It was really sad.
Does your FIL know of your plans of leaving?

Work had already told him to stay home, get it fixed and come in tomorrow.
FIL knows that I'm frustrated and have mentioned that if things didn't change that I was thinking about it. I have not told him officially that I'm out.

My A broke my heart....in a bazillion pieces. Chose drink over the lovely life we had, turned on a dime, never looked back. Stuff broken seems easier. Broken hearts are just harder...from my point of view.

Just got home and he wanted to talk.
He does this thing where he says "come here" until I'm practically on top of him.
I sat down next to him and said this is as close as I want to get. What's up?
He got pissed off and stormed out.
Control issues much?
