My spouse left again, in anger, indicated he wants no contact other than text messages related to house maintenance. He states he wants space, but he is going to be with the other partner. This is our ongoing drama, exhausting and emotional for me.

Is losing it the same as being triggered.

10:12 PM

Lady (PRIVATE):

I’ve been dealing with deceit, lying and secrecy. my husband won’t let the emotional affair go. I have of history of being controlling and domineering behaviors that pushed him far away. I am aware. how can I move forward when he doesn’t like confronting it and denies so much

my spouse loses it whenever she is ever faced with me and my feelings. my feelings or vulnerability is triggered when I feel her wall me off and withdraws. she completely shuts down and friends me.

My spouse loses it whenever I pursue or question, and this triggers prolonged verbal abuse from him.
