I I have to also agree with Mary, too, that I tend to vent the negative things about him on here, when infact, my life with my husband is wonderful, I just feel weird posting the good things sometimes. I don't know why I feel that way, but I just do.



I understand this, Rachel, I went through this with one of my friends. We have known each other since we were children and there have been times where she has been venting about her DH so much that she has said to me afterwards that she's afraid I will dislike her husband because she tells me all the negative stuff.

I understand why she does it though, because she just needs to complain about it, and get it out of her system. I think if she told her family everything, it would affect their relationship with him, and she knows I can stay impartial and don't judge him (and sometimes I even take his side Chat Icon )

As for people I know who do this constantly, I think they are just unhappy and have a tough time seeing the positive things going on in their lives, and dwell on a lot of the petty stuff.

You know what, I have to say that I am more than a little embarrassed because obviously this thread has something to do with me. Rather than sit on here and post things like, "Wow, I WISH I had those problems," or whatever else people posted, just tell me. FM me or freaking type it in my post. I'm not a baby, and I much rather someone be DIRECT with me and tell me I complain too much. I'm not speaking to anyone in particular, but I think I have been posting on here long enough and "know" enough of you that you can be straight with me. Sometimes, I need a reality check, and I think that is why I "vent" on here a lot because I get perspective, which is what I need sometimes. I have been in a fog of self-pity lately, it's fine to tell me to shut up.
So please, don't roll your eyes at me or post about me in a not so non-descript way. Just freaking tell me. I'm not some fragile piece of glass that will break if you tell me the truth. I much prefer to be told directly when it's getting old.
On that note, I do have to at least say thank you to Don because he's the only one who was direct with me on my post about my husband.



I'm guessing your quote is in response to my post above but maybe it's not because it's not an exact quote but I don't see anything else close.
I've spoken to the person before so obviously it wasn't you. But I do wish I could complain more about my husbands hours, or that he hangs out at home too much.. etc which are things I meant... but I can't and try not too because I knew what I was getting into before I got married. Well as much as you know how much something can hurt prior to feeling the pain itself. I ended up responding to your post but I've never been in your shoes since my husband wouldn't think of doing that. Heck, he likes the phillies and they **** everywhere they play why travel. lol I hope you feel better soon.

That's a good point. There's a difference between people who really dwell on the bad and the people who just need to get it out and move on.

but if people really dwell on the bad..why? Are they depressed? Do they just want attention? or is it really too much for them to handle and see the good right now?
