[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Why are the tears such a problem for you? I cry when I talk about sensitive topics, but so what?[/b] My DH listens and cares, and it doesn't prevent us from having a real discussion. You need marriage counseling for both of you, someone who can help you communicate.[/quote] C'mon now- you must know that tears are often used as a tactic to shut a conversation down. Not always, but with some people you once the tears start flowing the conversation stops (woman here, if that matters)[/quote] I know it happens, but it doesn't have to. OP needs to not give in to it. Say something like "I'm sorry you are upset, but it is really important to me that we discuss this issue." If the OP can't handle a few tears, maybe he should work on that. In this case it doesn't really matter though. It sounds like OP's wife is stonewalling him and will continue to do so until she chooses to stop. They need therapy.[/quote]
