Why is it that no one (except us few here and Michele) can understand why we want to save our marriages and why we stand by our S when they are hurt and scared in order to save our M? Please tell me that these other people are just plain clueless and I'm not the one who is blind. Perhaps I just tell them too much. My father and my stepmother and my grandmother all say that it just isn't right that my H gets to make all the decisions. Like IF/When we will get back together. And where we will live etc. Why can't they just be happy for me that things are getting better? I can't tell you how many times I have read this book over and over and read the threads here over and over for that support I need. The part where it says you will be carrying most of the load is absolutely right! But I didn't expect it to be dumped on me by family members as well. Sheesh, they've never cared what I did before so why do they think they have a say in it now?
