Psychologist Frode Thuen: He’s really changed

He demanded that he share his opinion, and emphasized that he is responsible for you and my children and grandchildren.

I am a woman in my mid 60’s, married a second time to what I think is the best man in the world. And it turns out that many also want to be his girlfriend or wife. He really is the man of dreams, in every way! But as time went on, I barely recognized him.

The first time I had a shaman was when we moved in together a few years ago. Then it became clear that she had completely different expectations of my children than her own. The same thing has happened with the grandson on each of our sides, with different rules for his grandson and me.

At one point, he also started using my maiden name as a kind of insult to all the possible moral and ethical attitudes, opinions, actions, values, and choices my children made, which he disagreed with. He referred to it as “usually family”.

He also emphasized that he was the head of the family. He was the oldest, and we all had to show respect for him and his innumerable opinions. Because he has life experience, and we all don’t. Except for the kids, who have their own rules. When I retorted, there were more and more disagreements, which in recent years have developed into outright bickering.
