[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand, OP. It's not about politics; it's about values. [/quote]

OP here.  Yes, absolutely.  It feels like we are not aligned on values, which is a tough pill to swallow.[/quote]

This is tough.  If you want the keep your marriage going, don't try to change him, but don't let him try to change you.  My DH and I are closely aligned politically speaking but I am probably a more willing to be out there than he is.  I'm not trying to get him to go to a rally, volunteer, donate money, or call our elected officials. However, I'll let him know what rally I may go to, what groups I am donating to so he isn't surprised.  I look to my friends to provide that sounding board about worries as well as sources of action.  Oh, and I pick at least 2 days a week where I stay off social media and don't listen to the news so I can disconnect.  I've also started watching the Daily Show to both stay aware and find some humor in recent events.  Loved the analogy about Beyonce's announcement.[/quote]
