What does it mean when your 'loving' spouse is more rude and disrespectful to you than he is to perfect strangers?

I feel like I'm watching the slow deterioration of my marriage and I try to communicate with him but he wont; he shuts down. I think he's lying to me about something again but I can't guess what and when I asked him who he was texting earlier he got super defensive about it.

Then when I asked him why... why he works so hard to hide things if there is nothing to hide he said, "because I like to see you make a fool out of yourself."

How can someone love you if they want to see you look and feel stupid? I feel like I'm at the end of a horribly painful epiphany in which I figure out that you can't love someone that you don't respect.

That this last time, it didn't even hurt. It should hurt, right?

So many people here are giving great advice, Angelfire. And you also are getting perspectives from men. You have a lot to think about. I hope you choose wisely. If you wish to chat again, just message me. I am happy to talk with you. People care about you.

@PoetryNEmotion You are so very right! There are a lot of people giving amazing advice and offering support and I'm moved, I really am. I mostly came on here to rant and cry and get out some useless emotion and it's turned into something else entirely. Thank you for caring <3
