Let me assure you that I am not one of those women who allows their husbands to tell them what to do in fact, its the other way around. Is he insecure yes, does he question me when I go out shopping or to class or somewhere with the kids? never...why? because he knows I wouldnt tolerate it. Is he giving, affectionate, attentive, a good provider and supportive of my goals? absolutely 100%....here is my point, if he is insecure in ways I dont want him to be because when you are married you dont want your spouse to feel those feelings. No partner is going to be perfect, without flaws. He doesnt drink, cheat or be abusive. Sounds pretty good to me. Actually, these posts have shown me that I need to involve him in the friendship so he feels secure about it. Thats what spouses do, put each other first. And no...Im not a newlywed....9 nine years now married. Look, I appreciate your advice (I did ask for it) and I think you make some great points and your posts are straight forward and blunt which is what Im like BUT regardless of what you will admit somewhere down the line you have had a poor male relationship in your life that gave you somewhat of a negative take on men....maybe it was dear old dad, maybe it was an ex boyfriend I dont know....the answer cannot always be to run away, sometimes if the situation is right its worth it to stay and do the work.
yanno, it sounds like you have a pretty darn good man....but remember if you can, your dealing with two seperate individuals...you and him...two personalities, so, you both cannot think and feel alike, there are going to be differences in opinions and how he feels....and I agree, you run away, you run away all your life, takes a lot more courage to stay and fight...
