Am I Going To Be Like My Mother? (Long...sorry)
Re: Am I Going To Be Like My Mother? (Long...sorry)
Tell your husband not to answer the phone! I'd be pissed if my mom called crying to my husband.
Married to my best friend 6/5/10
BFP #1 9/7/10, EDD 5/14/11, Violet born 5/27/11.
BFP #2 4/9/12, EDD 12/16/12, M/C Rory 4/24/12.
BFP #3 10/6/12, EDD 6/16/12.
Yeah, I haven't called her back. I don't plan to call her back. I don't need or want anything from her. She gives me grief and heartache. I am pregnant now and I don't need and won't allow myself to be part of her drama.
I come to learn my husband likes to put the mask on everyone else first, then he thinks about putting on the mask for himself second. He likes to be at everyone's rescue but himself. I have to come along make sure our own obligations, responsibilities, and fiances are taken care of. In return he thinks I am selfish, nagger, and negative towards life. Life is funny sometimes...everyone see's him as the selfless giver...but behind the scenes...I am the one desperately holding our life together.
His actions shows me he has low self worth and is subconsciously looking for approving outside of himself. My parents and his parents really take advantage of it by asking for a lot from him. I love him unconditionally because I want him to know you don't have to give the shirt off your back for people to love or even like you.
