When I got married my mom told me that if I ever needed to talk about things, she was there for me. I appreciated the sentiment, but my husband-to-be and I had already decided to keep our parents out of it. Parents tend to hold ill feelings toward a son (or daughter) -in-law long after the conflict has been resolved within the marriage. So true about the mother thing.

Friends that are good listeners are gems. I cherish the ones that will call me to the carpet, too. Sounds like yours will do just that. On a side note, I'd ask that lady if she ever got dizzy during her "decorating brainstorms". @Laurie – Thanks for your comments. Friends that are good listeners are gems.

I was with a lady once who told me she got her best decorating ideas while staring at the ceiling fan during sex. TMI- I did NOT need to hear this. I do have a friend that I can talk to about my hub. She is a truth in love friend and will give me food for thought to improve my attitude when I am failing in that department. It's not a trash fest. It's more of a discusion which ends up helping me see the hubs perspective. There have been times that I gave my hub an out of the blue compliment and I could instantly see he really appreciated my words. I think we forget how much guys like their women to find the good in them. I also find that the more I am open with my feelings (constructive not destructive), and my needs, (Read the book Non Violent Communication) the hub was more open with his which led to more intimacy and trust. You are right, there are bumps in the road but you can't solve them by trashing the hub. Looking forward to your next posting Pam! :O) Great Post!
