So this has nothing to do with weight loss, but I'm so mad that I had to vent. My brother-in-law told my husband today that he's too nice to me. His exact words were " Stop being so nice, you need to step up and show her who's the man." Are you kidding me???? This from a man who has 2 children from 2 different women and is not with either of them! He is in no place to be giving my husband relationship advice. Now, I bit my tongue chose not to burst in the room like a crazy woman, like I wanted to. Thankfully my husband responded with "I love her. We're going to have babies and be together forever. I treat her the way I want to be treated." That shut him up, but I'm still angry. AARRGGHHH!!!!!

    Guess you got the good brother! I'm glad your husband stuck up for himself and you. Sadly, he's probably jealous of his brother's happiness and doesn't realize, or won't admit that his sh!@#4tty attitude is the reason he can't keep a girl

    Looks like you have a special husband now what you need to do is go in their & show your appreciation to him by doing whatever he says after all he deserves it.:wink: Your brother in law is feeling pretty dumb right now I bet. That was a very cool & collected response Awesome stuff.:smile:

    Two Thumbs up for your husband....I liked his responce.....your brother to me seems to be jealous, unless he is saying your husband is too nice, because you are mean to your husband....thats a point to consider.

    However, if you are as lovely to your husband as it seems he is to you....then thumbs up to both of you

    But for your brother to say that statement about u to your husband, makes me wonder if there is more to it.

    So I hope you are as nice to your husband as he is obviously to to you

    :smile:

    It was his brother that made the comment not mine. I think I'm pretty good to my husband. Our relationship is not perfect, we have our ups and downs and granted I can get a little moody around a certain time each month, but our biggest rule in the house is that no matter what's going on we have to be respectful to each other. No cursing at or talking down to each other.

    Sadly, his brother thinks that a man who would rather be home with his wife on a Saturday night then partying at the clubs is a whip. But that's his problem, not mine.

    NotSurprised >> "now what you need to do is go in their & show your appreciation to him by doing whatever he says after all he deserves it." I was thinking to myself as I read your response, "Gee, I sure hope he's kidding!" :laugh: Funny!

    mommyhof3 >> You're absolutely correct! "Chit-chat, fun, and games" should also include "a safe where you can vent your frustrations or share small details of your crappy day and get the support you need *before* reaching for a doughnut because, after all, we've all been there and we know how easy it is to reach for a treat when we're p'd-off." OK, maybe that's a little long to fit in the title, but the right idea is there! :wink: :bigsmile:
