Got my ranty pants on

 Okay, so.

My husband gave me the plague - not his fault, not mad about that - BUT THEN, he huffed & sulked & sighed all weekend because I was too sick to go to Wonder Woman with him. 

So I just looked at a bunch of WW gifs & was inspired to tell him off & shut this fuckery down for good.

Seriously, every time I'm sick or migrainey or out of town or really busy, he gets SO DEPRESSED and then refuses to seek outside help. Just, like, I love you but I CANNOT be responsible for ALL your joy in life, NO. And yes, it legitimately sucks sometimes to be partnered to someone who is chronically ill, but that chronically ill person is not the one to whom you should do all your venting/processing to about that!

For real! Vent toward the outside circle! Don't vent inside!

:/

It's not hard to get.

Exactly!

And I think he intellectually knows that. But he's let his unmanaged depression concentrate his introverted nature into an unhealthy situation where I am the *only* person he talks to about his feelings.

Sometimes I'm like WHY did I marry a man again??? And then I remember, oh, it's because I fell in love with a person. Who happens to be a man. (But still.)

I hope he gets some help for his depression. It sounds like he would benefit from it.
