[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again. This is my last response.

I'm floored that there are folks that don't believe that someone, my husband in this case, could have such a kind and loving response. [b]It makes me sad for you that you may not have ever experienced this.[/b] At dinner tonight, not only did he reiterate everything he said earlier, but he also talked to another (male) friend about working towards doing the Marine Corp Marathon.

Who has time to troll, especially with all my detail? I certainly don't.

Thank you for the kind legitimate responses I got. It really did help. [/quote]

My thoughts exactly, OP. I guess if anything this attitude is easy to reconcile with the fact that there are so many bitter, unhappy divorced people on here - no one can relate to or even comprehend the type of dynamic that occurs in mature, healthy, and long-enduring marriages. These responses are certainly enlightening[/quote]
In a mature, healthy, and long-enduring marriage, one spouse doesn't get jealous when the other one has an activity that he/she enjoys. It's called trust.[/quote]

Uhh...OP is not jealous that her husband has an activity he enjoys. She's not asking him to quit running. How are you not understanding this?

Secondarily, I would disagree with your whole premise there. Sometimes there are circumstances where one person needs to cut back on time / $ spent doing something they love, for the greater good / sake of the rest of the family. If my spouse wanted to spend all our money and a quarter of the year traveling to far-removed backcountry ski destinations, like we both enjoyed doing before we had kids, I'd have a (justified) problem with it. Luckily this is not the case, but I'd certainly take issue in that scenario. Not that this is relevant to OP's situation, just pointing out the flaws in your simplistic statement [/quote]
