[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I learned this year's ago at a marriage conference. [b]Do not complain to men unless you want them to try to solve your problem. Just don't complain to your brother anymore and always tell him news about your situation in the most positive light possible.[/b] [/quote] Thank you. This is concrete advice on how I can pull back. I'm really going to try to do this. I didn't think I complain to him, but will definitely filter more going forward. Thank you! [/quote] I just want to second the original PP of this. I have to be very clear with my DH when I want to just vent or when I want advice and I have to really limit the vent sessions. He finds it frustrating to hear problems he can't contribute to solving. If your brother cares about you, it may be really hard for him to hear how you are struggling and he can't help but want to jump in and try and tackle the problems for you. [/quote]
