Wife Still in MLC but has now left #4

[Lifes Twists]

I hope this does not become a thread of everyone piling on Matt. It would speak very poorly of the folks on this board who try and help each other. I have read a lot of good things on this board. When people start responding to a person thread in a way that indicates they are taking it personally and getting angry at what the threads originator is saying I think it cast a bad light on that person and possibly this board to some new who may be reading this for the first time seeking support for their own situation.

We are all hurting in some way because of what our spouses are doing. We all react and process this in different ways. The hope is eventually we will all grow from this experience and learn to step back and see how our actions may have contributed to what is going on in our lives and work to change those.

Whether we are new or have been on this board for many years and assign ourselves the title of veteran we may be able to contribute in a positive way. If one group lords it over the other that they know best and the other has to do what they say diminishes the good that they and this board do.

I hope that everyone that is contributing to this thread will sit back, take a deep breath and consider whether their actions are adding to a positive experience or creating a negative one.
