[quote=Anonymous][quote]* "I would also like your blessing to discuss this matter with my husband, because I would like to understand his views on sensitive matters like this. If he was raised by the code that 'What you don't know won't hurt you,' and if [b]he still lives by that code,[/b] I need to know that so that I can think about how to [b]protect myself in the future[/b]. [b]I live by the code [/b]that we are indeed hurt even by things we may not know, if our loved ones think it is okay to deceive us and disrespect us. I don't mean any disrespect to you by saying this. There are certainly many people who [b]can give reasonable support for the concept[/b] that what we don't know doesn't hurt us. I just happen to feel differently and very strongly about it, and I hope you can understand and respect my feelings about it. I don't see any need for my husband to speak to any other family members about it.[b] I just need us to have a clear understanding about our own relationship and the foundation on which it is built.[/b]" [/quote]

If I ever said anything this overdramatic to my MIL about chicken broth she would burst out laughing. [/quote]
