Olive,
If you haven't read Love Must Be Tough by James Dobson I strongly recommend it to you. It deals with being loving but firm and not letting them walk all over us during infidelity. It's about cofronting the issues. They had this panel on their and they all talked about how they made excuses for their spouses and tried to appease them and their marriages still ended. It talks about getting self respect back and respect from them. I wish I had paid more attention to the book. I wasn't brave enough to follow through. I thought by not confronting him and being a good wife he would come home. Guess what? It didn't work we are still getting divorce. Please read the book.




Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you, they're supposed to help you discover who you are.
