I know that I didn't work hard enough on mine. I regret, regret, regret that. But in no way did I think things were this bad. And, in no way, do I like the way he is "fixing" our problems. But I actually do think...at least for me...that if he would have said let's get help...I would have done so in a minute. And, while I don't know you....I have to assume that if your H came and said to you that he was unhappy in your M and said he wanted counseling - I am thinking you would have gone.
And, yes...I get very frustrated with my friend (although I never show it). I can hear and see what she is doing and I want to scream at her - do you know how much pain you will cause....I know you want to hurt your H, but do you also want to hurt your children, your family, his family and your friends? It is a very selfish act to leave - and very hard for me to understand.
Oh, Anned - would have, could have, should have....if we could just turn back time....
