Had a really bad weekend this weekend. No $$ for anything, even gas. Had to finagle it so we could get places without the tank running dry. When I brought up the need to borrow money to get her gas for the week, she got all pissed off. When she asked how she was going to get places without gas, I said "I don't know." She started freaking out about our lack of money and saying how would we survive with no money. I told her to get a job, and she came right out and told me that it was my fault that we had no money, because if I had been able to keep my mouth shut, I wouldn't have been fired from a job where we had PLENTY of money. The thing is, she really doesn't know what was going on, and that job was KILLING me. I was working 80 hour weeks, 6 days a week, and getting constant grief FROM HER about never being home. Now, I am starting my tutoring business, and she STILL complains that I'm never home! NOTHING will ever be good enough for her! I can never make her happy - I wonder if therapy can even help...maybe our marriage is on its way out...
As an Aspie, I have problems with emotion, but at least my logical mind CAN find happiness. Some NTs can only see the negative emotions - they can never be happy if all they see is sorrow and the bad life has to offer.
