Sounds like she needs to be dropped into a third-world country and try to make it on her own for awhile. She might be more grateful later.
She keeps bringing up that her life was ruined with a teen pregnancy. What exactly were her plans otherwise? Sounds like she didn't want an education or a career. So her life would have been to get married and have a kid. Isn't that how it turned out anyway? How was her life "ruined"?
the therapy session was decent yesterday. We talked about the high school/Notre Dame years. She did say that as she got later into the pregnancy she did feel more judged and self conscious from people who gave her dirty looks and whatnot. She seemed to, and maybe this is painfully obvious to everyone else, but it wasn't to me. She had somewhat of a problem with me at ND. How was I supposed to know " I support you. You'll do great everything is under control." meant " stay here"? I'm not a mind reader, we're not on an Easter egg hunt, tell me you don't want me at ND, tell me. On top of ND I applied to U of Chicago, N'Western, DePaul, and Loyola. I would've had no problem staying closer to home and going to say, N'Western for undergraduate and then going ND for my graduate degree. I had no pressure from my parents to go to ND, they would've paid wherever I got in. Relationships are about honesty, what's wrong with " Babe, I want you here close to home with me". Boom, done, no ND, not a problem. I understand her wanting to follow my dream, but she comes before that, my dream is for her to be happy. From there we got into how the dinner argument went down. She felt, yes, for a 10 minute period, unimportant and that I wasn't being considerate towards her.
We won't be going to therapy, we'll be in Mexico on Thursday.
Good thing I read further, I was about to post that she's going to ask for a trip or condo.
