I just read on the DB Facebook page something that I really needed to hear. Can't share it or like it there, because that would possibly draw my friends or worse H's family to this site, where I have posted way too many details and would be "outed." This is it:
When you have problems in your marriage, people often tell you that you should get out, or that you shouldn't "put up with that crap." Then you begin to second guess yourself. Don't. If you fight for your marriage, regardless of the types or severity of your problems, it shows your integrity and your love for your marriage. You're not weak if you're willing to deal with less-than-optimal treatment from your spouse. You're simply working towards a better future. Hang in there. Michele Weiner-Davis
