Andrea,

If you are not feeling okay about you, anything negative thing your husband says will make you feel bad. This is another of the lessons that I had to learn and I am still dealing with some of my own issues which were making feel less than worthy. That is not to say that it doesn't still bite, some of those comments are directed at you and there is no way that you can not take them to heart.

Like I said at the start of this post, sometimes I get tired of being the support person and just want to be supported myself. Its a lesson that we all have to learn I guess, give to ourselves first so we have plenty left over to give to others. Its easy to get caught up in the give, give, give but it gets damn tiring. It would be nice to have a hug or smile or a 'goodmorning' without having to prompt or being disappointed because you expected it and it didn't happen.
