Life is so much easier when you dont have to argue every day with your spouse. My husband has been doing so much better with temptation and being in control of his sobriety instead of letting the addiction take over. We rarely argue now. But some days it's like he's "jonesing" for a fight. He purposefully causes chaos. Like he's bored and needing stimulation. It's exhausting. It makes me want to give up and leave. Im praying that those days become less and less. Im just not sure why he does it. And he says he doesnt realize he's doing it. But he causes an argument then when I repeatedly tell him to drop it and I walk away to cool off. He follows me and starts the argument AGAIN. And I cannot deal with the backhanded apologies. Where he's "sorry" but its my fault he did it. He gets so mad when he's not in control. After I went to counseling for a year and a half and was told repeatedly im not the problem, I became stronger in my boundaries. That makes him so mad. It infuriates him that he doesnt get the same reactions he used to.
Any advice?
