[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a few friends that have have rocky relationships and I am so tired of hearing them talk about how their relationships are so much stronger because they've gone through x and y with their husbands. I'm not talking about things out of our control like a lay off or infertility but stupid decisions their husbands have made in the past - like going to jail, drinking, cheating.

Are couples like my husband and I not as "strong" because we've never done these types of things to one another? That's what these woman intentionally or unintentionally insinuate and I find it irritating - and I can't help but feel it's to make up for insecurity. This is not a humble brag about how great my relationship is - we have our own problems - we've just never done anything to hurt each other, it's more like "life" is beating us down lately. I'm just so tired of hearing the same "we're stronger for it, we've been through so much" crap over and over again. Then a month later their husbands do something else stupid. Maybe I'm just mean but I must not be the only one thinking this! [/quote]

That's a sign of low SES and stupidity, not a strong relationship.[/quote]
