Can I observe, what others think of you is their business not yours. You can choose if you like to ask those who you feel have value to you to comment and you can take that into account, what matters most is that which you think. I get the small town hot house, I have observed most people are more concerned about what you think of them than other ways.
If you want to stand that is your choice, if you want to stay M also your choice. If you want to D your choice too.
Similarly what you think is your choice, hence there is no need to apologise to me for your thoughts on my WH. In any case you have my assurance of forgiveness and thank you for the apology. I assumed that you were soothing and intentions were good. I have my own views on WH (some of which are unprintable), and in general there is no point in wasting my voice as I have sacked him as my H, it will have no effect on him, it will be damaging to me. So I let it go, I feel so sad for WH, it can't be a good place to be in his life. I pray for him that he finds his better self so that he stabilises for his sake and any further R of his is more complete.
I have no say in it, better concentrate on that which I can choose to change in my own life. So I think it is.
So feel your fear and go beyond it to achieve your goal of standing for your M and for yourself. Have your secret smile of knowing your goal and hold that to your heart, it has great value.
