My Life and Husband's MLC

[DestinyUnknown]

I apologize for the multiple posts, but my thoughts have been "rolling" thoughts.


I have been on a long journey over the last two and half years. And in that time, confusion, depression, and solemness were a big part of my day to day life.

Many folks (i.e. my family, husband, friends, in laws) believe I am strong enough to handle this crisis and that I will be okay (I actually deplore when people tell me this). If you get advice, you get “.....do what will make you happy”. This advice is one that contributes to destroying a marriage. So one day your happy, the next day you're not and you decide to end your marriage. In many cases, we act out of anger. And when we come to critical decisions based on anger, we often make the wrong decision. But we move forward with the wrong decision to “save face”; so that we do not have to admit that “we were wrong”. Unfortunately, the “I’m right, you’re wrong” mentality has not helped my relationship with my H. Where is the submission? Where is the humility? Pride makes a person self-centered, wrapped up in thoughts of her own comfort, own well-being, own opinions, and own points of view - often dismissing or excluding others (including the LBS) in the process.
