I am half way thru NMMNG and my marriage is still in complete shambles, and I am to blame. Now that I can actually recognize shit tests, I notice that they are frequent and filled with rage. I have been crushing them at first notice with Agree and Amplify and Pressure switches. A ton of the shit tests come via text while I am at work and she insinuates an argument from my response to her questions. Her shit tests are things like questions of my intelligence or controlling digs and shameing. Today it was, "i dont need your attitude" Pressure switched that with this, I am not giving you attitude, I am busy with two deals. Go tend to your friend tonight, I have plenty of shit to work on. Came back with, "fuck you, this marriage is never going to work." I countered with "That is completely disrespectful and I will not tolerate it any longer. Go out with your friend and figure out how to stick to our goal of being respectful of each other or you can go ahead and start packing. I also said from now on we can speak on the phone when she thinks there is attitude involved.

Honestly, I am scared shit-less that she will choose option B, but I haven't shown her my fear at all. I sent those text messaged almost 15 minutes ago and have had no response. Needless to say, things are still very volatile in my house. My combat experience is what I have been drawing on to keep my frame, and so far it hasn't failed me. I am waiting for the meltdown, and I expect it soon, even with only being in to this for 2 days. I have been a BP bitch for so long that her aggressive control is bound to lash out at me in a strong way.

Thanks for you help and guidance bros, I hope this works.
