Their not always trying to issue damage. Its definately REAL bad when they really are trying to cause damage.


Hey DLS,
Yea, I've seen that, even growing up with my Mother and her friends, heheh. I'm not so much talking about women complaining about their hubbies generally. No doubt I have my idiosyncrasies. I tend to leave my socks in the living room, I'm a little sloppy around the coffee pot in the morning, and I like to discuss politics much more than my wife cares to. I'd like to think I keep it in check, but she might have a different version, who knows.

I'm talking about the conversations that specifically concern thinking about leaving the marriage. And the friends who try to be "quasi'balanced" or even just out-and-out champions of her leaving. By "quasi-balanced" I mean the ones who try to appear balanced, by starting out with, for example: "Have you tried to work it out? Maybe you could go to counciling" and a few more 'sensible-sounding' queries, then cut right to "Well maybe you should leave him if he doesn't make you happy" kind of stuff.


Life may be short, but . . . well . . . it actually IS short, now that I think about it . . . . particularly when compared to planetary formation and stuff.
