If Love Can Survive Marriage, Can Marriage Survive the In-Laws??

I'm writing this entry at the request of my husband, in light of some issues that have come up with his parents, so if you're not interested...don't read it!! ;)

Hearing a lot of "but I never said anything."

That's the first mistake. You've got to take that bull by the horns and deal with these problems and issues head on.

Second, resolve those unresolved issues. You're dealing with some stuff and upping to where you are on the defensive and without family will *NOT* be good for your marriage. Try adding your deep seeded resentment to everything you're feeling now.

Sucks even to think about it, don't it.

Wish you luck. Catch me online and we can talk more about it if you want.

And I'll get you for the best man comment. Oh yes....

I posted this entry because Shawn wants to direct his mother this way so she can see things from my point of view. I hate entries like this, they make it seem like all I do is bitch! (Shut up Jason)
And as for the best man comment....if you can't take a little teasing...you should have kept your hands to yourself! ;) only teasing!!

Oh dear. Hon, be careful about using these posts to communicate. Passive agressive "messages" like these will never be the substitute for dealing with something head on.

If you don't feel like talking a letter perhaps. I just wonder if Alice will feel anything but more upset that it's on the net for all to see. :-/ If it's not too late I might encourage re-thinking.

Shawn and I have talked about that exactly. I think he may just use it as a point of reference when he talkes to them this weekend. That way he makes sure that he gets across exactly how I'm feeling.
