DB seemingly backfired w/ my H???

I am the same. I hate when people say "do what makes you happy" or "life is to short to be unhappy" basically implying that people shouldn't think twice about their situation and what could be done to make it better, instead, if things are bad, leave! I believe most times you have to fight through your unhappy times, in order to find understanding on the other side. Running from your "unhappiness" is just a temporary fix, happiness comes from with-in, if you're allowing outside factors to steal your joy that's your issue, not the outside factors.

Same here! Sometimes happiness comes with work and that is the best kind, IMO! My H needs to understand this concept!
