- My son came home today and he was telling me about something that happened today where he had to go to the principal's office. I asked him to tell me in his words what happened and who was involved, etc. When he was telling me the story he made a...
- I read a quote last week that put so much into perspective and wanted to share."Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength." ~Eric HofferNow, I just say this to myself each time my H gives a rude response to me (which is just about every time...
- I just read this article this morning and was both enraged and appalled. I pray this woman can get the support and find the strength she needs to get out of this terrible situation. More evidence (as if we needed any) that abuse affects all sorts...
- I don't know whether to post here or in the Infidelity group. I think my H is at it again with the other woman (OW). I've had my suspicions for a few weeks now but have had no proof. I received an email from OW's husband asking me if my H was in...
- Here's the story. My husband has lost 2 wedding rings over the course of our marraige. I purchased the first one. After he lost it, I bought a new one for him. He lost that, and I refused to buy a third replacement. This year, in June, he...
- I seem to be having a pity party for myself tonight. I'm in DC on business. My H refuses to answer the phone (as he said he would). I only call on the off chance that he will pick up and I can talk to my 4 year old son, who is in kindergarten. I...
- I posted a looong time ago about having to go on a business trip, and a male coworker will be going on the same trip. I was worried about telling my husband, and when I did, he acted in the exact way I was expecting: anger, threatening to go see...
- My son started kindergarten last week. He is one of the youngest in his class -- birthday in early October, with the cutoff being December 1. He comes home and is really tearful a lot of the time. His teacher said that we need to work with him at ...
- I've been actively trying to work on my boundaries with my H. I'm planning to leave, but that's still several months away. In the meantime, I'm tired of subjugating myself to everything he wants. I'm slowly trying to find my voice.Last night, our...
- So, my H is wanting to go to visit his sister over Halloween. I'm not as excited about it because my good friends have an annual Halloween party that we've gone to for the past 7 years. I know he's doing this, in part, because he has decided that...
- I found this resource, and thought it was really helpful. They are not always going to work, but made a lot of sense and wanted to share.When you defend yourself, you put yourself in the position of justifying your actions to others. You seek...
- OK - this is probably going to sound mean, but I can't help but see the humor in it... This morning, I woke up to go to work. I typically set my alarm clock in time to hit snooze once or twice because it takes me a long time to activate and wake...
- Several weeks ago, I posted a discussion about having to tell my H someting, and being afraid to do so. I'm such a wimp. I still haven't told him. I know I need to. I really just want to do it via email since he'll have time to stew on it for a...
- OK - 2 issues here...1) I discovered that he went through my cell phone again. I get my personal email on my cell, as well as have Facebook connection there. I had the cell phone charging in the bathroom while I was getting ready this morning. I...
- From the first time I heard it, I knew it was about my situation...Pink "Please Don't Leave Me"in the lyrics: You're my perfect little punching bag, and I need you. I'm sorry." "I always say that I don't really need you, but it always comes right...
