[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Great, they can thank you years from now when they're stuck in their own bad marriages. I'm sure they'll be greatful to realize that they have to spend the rest of their lives as a martyr; just like their mom. Who wouldn't be, right? High five OP. Awesome job teaching them that relationships without connection are where it's at. Don't blame your kids for your inability to leave. Go to therapy and at least own what you're doing to them.[b] If you really want this life, the least you could do is regularly explain to them that how you and your husband live isn't typical, healthy or ideal. [/b] Fingers crossed they can somehow find a good marriage even though you are giving them this as a daily example. I'm sure it will work out.[/quote] The most idiotic, disrespectful, boundary-ignorant parenting advice I've ever seen.[/quote] New poster. I think her advice is SPOT ON. OP needs a lot of therapy, and her kids will need the same. Even coming on here with her ridiculous initial post is some form of CRAZY. [/quote] yeah, clearly, it's an excellent idea to REGULARLY sit down a ten-year old and say, you see, daddy and I are living an atypical, unhealthy, less than ideal marriage - all for you! Make sure yours isn't like that! That'll fix them. Morons. OP, there is nothing wrong or atypical in your marriage. Most people married for 15+ years are there. If you are amiable roommates, you are way ahead of the population. If there is no strife or abuse at the house, if you function well as a family, if you are providing a stable happy home for your children, then what else can you possibly wish for? Do you think that there are dozens of Fabios waiting outside your door simply DYING to discover a passionate connection with a 40+ mother of three? What are you going to tell the kids? Daddy was nice to me but I left him because no butterflies? Wake up. Find a way to connect with your DH. Or don't. What you have doesn't sound so bad. [/quote]
