She has a great love for children, animals and pathetic people. I'm sure there is a gift in that. But she is constantly bragging on herself and putting other people down, too. I think these traits go together into a pathology of addiction. But I've never heard of that before.
I'm not a dependent person. She tries to do for me and make every decision for me. I let her to appease her. But it's beginning to make me feel like I don't have a say in anything.
If I ever try to make a decision or do something my way, she sulks and becomes aloof. She thinks I don't love her. If I ever express an opinion about a like or dislike that is different from hers, she pulls away and acts angry.
I don't know how to deal with this. I've just tried going along with her and humoring her. But the dependents she has created take up all her time and our money. And she is frustrated that she can't keep doing everything in our household--yet she won't let go of control and let me do some of it either.
