Pattie, I do believe I have a good plan, good notion of what I need to do. I'll just have faith that as I keep practicing standing up for myself, I'll get better at it...and the anxiety will go away!
Nitaf,
I used to think that my husband telling me 'no' meant that he didn't love me.
Now I see that it means that he loves himself. Huge difference!
I don't expect him to like my telling him no. But I suspect he'll respect me for it.
