I thought too that I had the perfect life. I am also a bit of a perfectionist, I guess I liked others to look up to me and my family. I even gave them advice. Now the worst has happened, no money, no prestigious career, a husband who doesn't want to be near me, the threat of losing my family. I have been humiliated and looking positive on that means I am more human. Two feet firmly on the ground, well nearly.
I'm going to take your advice and let go and detach a bit. I'm even planning a short trip, which I avoided going on before. At home I just agree, no complaining, no pressure and keep my mouth shut otherwise. Acting happy is going a bit slower as I'm finding it a bit hard. But I've haven't been acting sad, so thats a start.
I'll give my kids a hug from you. I'll pray for you too.
My H went out last night, said he needed to think, but I called him and he was on the telephone. Guess I need to stop worrying what he is doing and get my own life.
I'm sure your H will call. He'll be wondering what you are doing at least. Keep it up.
