Like that girl I like boredom now. Very soothing, predicatable, calm and peaceful.
I love this.

You are addicted to drama. You probably need chaos and turmoil to feel good on some level, even if it's adversely affecting you. Perhaps you thrive on it, or you feel you need that edge in order for your life to feel "normal." The thing is, it isn't normal and it's very unhealthy. I agree with the other poster who said it sounds like you have poor boundaries which is why you have let your wife walk all over you and treat you the way she has, letting all of her needs get met while you suffer. It's toxic.
