An old mindset for Burned. This is thread 8.

[burned]

OK this is the advice I got from my mother, the person who taught me NGS:

"I think wanting to get the house is cruel because it is what she wants and not really what you want. Beside I don’t think fighting her that way is going to make her respect you. And it would be nice to have her respect, but you should not care if you don’t live with her. I know she has some money but as long as you are married you have a responsibility toward her."

But why does this feel kind of good? My insides are screaming "you're an a-hole, you should be ashamed of yourself."

Edit: she said, "I know you think I'm taking advantage of you but I'm not" or something like that, and I so badly wanted to say, "Yeah, you took advantage of me beginning a year ago when you first let that jerk park his car in your front yard, if you know what I mean."
