This sounds a lot like my relationship. Married five years to an emotionally abusive, bi-polar husband. I was tired of the fighting, controlling etc. and told him we need to go to counselling. Suddenly he's Mr. Wonderful, bringing home flowers, not arguing about everything etc. We haven't been to counselling yet and right now I don't even feel like trying. I'm tired of it all and have no more feelings to muster up. I feel guilty though because now he's being nice and I have nothing to give. Seems to be the way it always works, they don't care till we threaten to leave but we don't threaten till we're pretty much done.
