You know T2, most of my freinds don't talk that way to me, BUT I do get picked on as I am an easy target. I can laugh at myself. Then again some of my freinds are very upfront with their feelings and I just let them slide right over me. I like honesty in people even if I don't want to hear it. The thing is with my friends when they do cross the line, they know it and come back with an apology and I do the same thing.

When H and I were in birthing classes five years ago the instructor went around the room and asked each person what qualities of the S they would most like the child to have and my H said "I hope child has my wife's easy going nature"

Maybe I am a doormat to EVERYBODY, not just my H.

And, yes he does hurt my feelings. Right now he claims to have no feelings for me so if I tell him he hurt my feelings he's not going to care anyways.

He won't hug me, he won't be there for me right now. My S's hugs can only go so far and there are days when I need some bigger arms around me.

I guess I'm wondering when it's my turn.
