Yea, I hated that Fern too...

I think that you have to keep a certain perspective when you read it though.

That is only one perspective that she can speak from, and it is hers.

Maybe we view that as her being extremely angry ? But you know what ? Those are her feelings. I'm really glad she shared them with us. She certainly painted a not too pretty picture of the role the LBS played.


That is one of a million ways that a spouse could walk away.

Your marriage could be facing exactly that, maybe more extreme, maybe less extreme.

That is why it is best to focus on what you feel your role in this is.
