I don't really worry what husband's family and friends think...
I know who I am.
I made a lot of mistakes in my marriage, but honestly no more then any one else including husbands in laws and friends. But my mistakes were domestic laziness and disorganization and nagging (he refers to it as verbal and emotional abuse)
I know that I am one of the most loyal and committed of partners out there. And to me that has more value then anything husband can complain about me to his friends and family.
