I am so happy you've found something to work for you and your marriage. I wish so much that I hadn't posted so much about my marriage in an open forum...but hey, I've learned my lesson. I'm not going to do that anymore unless something happens that I have to let it out or burst...lol. I'm such an open book to my friends and family, that I forget what kind of impression it leaaves with people who don't really know me...like on an open forum. Live and learn. Hopefully, I've learned.

Aww, Janet! We all love you girl! Feel free to share anything at all (that you feel comfortable sharing). No one will judge you. You are awesome! Don't forget that.

Janet, I think that it helps to have someone to talk to. All of my friends are friends of both my husband and I so talking to them is really hard to do. My husband is a really wonderful guy but nobody else lives with him so for me to complain it just looks like I really shouldn't have any thing to gripe about. My complaints sound really unreasonable to all those that are around me.

I wanted to talk to everyone on here but, as I said, I'm not crazy doing it on a public forum. I can't tell you how much I've cried and hurt the last few weeks. Things are some better, but it's going to take quite a while to really feel like I'm happy in my marriage. It always seems like two steps forward and three steps back!

Don't quit talking to us about your marriage, Janet. You know that we're concerned for you and care about your feelings. If you need to talk but don't want to on the open forum then send me a pm and we'll talk privately. It helps to have someone who understands.

Diana, I'm so sorry you're going through the same thing. I really hate the thought of someone feeling as I do and it sounds like you do. I shouldn't have posted it all on an open forum, you were much smarter than I, but my friends and family think the same thing...that I don't have anything to complain about.

I do have faith, I have my son, and my Yorkies....and it looks like I have my freinds here at 4WT. You all really have no idea how much I care for you all.

Thanks Mandy, I appreciate your post. I usually don't beat around the bush for sure. It's gotten me into trouble a few times, so I am getting a little better at thinking before speaking. Now if I could only think before typing and then read the darn thing before I hit the submit button...
