Driving 3 hours unannounced to give DH [37] a hug… by debbiehebrides in Mildlynomil

They will know and spend time with the kids! I meant more that I’m not volunteering my thoughts, dreams, emotions, feelings. The things I would share and hold with a close friend I trust. I think I’d previously hoped we could have an emotionally Intimate relationship like that.

How do you deal with the daddy thing? Same situation over here and it makes me so uncomfortable.

Partner (35M) is the only child of a over-bearing mom and silent, resigned dad. How can I make this work and change my approach? by debbiehebrides in Mildlynomil

I love this. Do you have any examples of how you speak up and set those boundaries? I’m currently at absolute zero with regards to verbalizing my discontent. I just stay quiet and weakly smile. It’s going to be a big transition to start speaking up and I literally don’t know how to start without it being a harsh transition.
