I did I had made myself an "adult milkshake" last night to relax myself. And slept through the night. Terrible thing was. My husband was at a wake last night. So I said to him. Make sure you call me when you come in. Well. This morning he called me to wake me up for work (he is my alarm clock) and I asked him why he never called me. Well apparently he did. And we had a whole conversation. I had to check my phones incoming calls before I would believe him hahha I had absolutely no recollection of any phone call. Man, dont think I'm going to do that again lol

Good morning Miss Kadi, I know it is so hard to part with our babies, trust me no matter what age they are we still think of them as so :'(.......I'll add a BIG AMEN to your declaration my sister that God is indeed working along with Kingston to finish off the 2012's because they are so anxious to start on the 2013 folks .

Hubby and I are close to the countdown and really looking forward to Saturday. It's a bit of a mixed bag of emotions as I know he will miss his home so I am trying to "temper" my excitement a bit. We all know that feeling of racing against time when we are getting ready to leave for a trip but when the plane finally takes off we go "Ahhhhhh....."big exhale.....I think I will need to join the "post-landing" club that was suggested here. I think it's a great idea as it must be such an adjustment for folks........guess I will soon see! Hugs, prayers and blessings to all of the JA members.

I thought I would start a conversation about the way we fight... It is important because as many are getting ready to begin forever this will be critical.

When you are angry with hubby how much control do you have over expressing your truth? Does the augment get so heated that you wish you could take back the things you said when it is over? How does he communicate, is he an introvert, hates conflicts, confrontational etc. You don't have to share details but be honest. How do you see yourself in terms of emotional strength? What drives you nuts... and how do you relate this to your partner? And this is a biggie "if you knew your significant other would just disappear days, months, years after you've been through this process, would you do anything different" I asked a friend the last question recently because she is planning to get married to someone in Jamaica.. I told her that sometimes we have to take risks but when she asked me if I thought it was a good idea I replied "it does not matter what I think, the question is do you think he is worth the risk? Just a little chat to pass the time.

I fight dirty..below the belt, hubby keeps things inside.. passive aggressive. But when I go in for the juggler he says words I never heard him say. In seven years prior to being here I never heard him swear but every now and then a mumma-dressa-punny-juice slips out. I love it! He said I don't stop provoke him cause I want to see him angry. The thing is I knew he had it in him.. just pretending, can only do this for so long.. play the nice guy that is. Don't respond if you don't wish to participate. I don't want to hear how in-love and perfect your marriage is. Just stirring up the big "women"...big woman tings.

 

[frankfield]

What I am trying to expose is the way we communicate..

if we understand our partners and they us we have a shot at making it to golden anniversaries. The answer my friend provided me was alarming... the thing she said she would do shows how we are not to love anyone or allow someone to have such power over our well-being. But it is her journey to take and I can only wish him all the best in his desire to be in Canada. For their sake I hope it is worth it. I don't wish to damper anyone's spirit just trying to have a real conversation.. or at least help us to see that it is not the man alone who can do wrong but sometimes we fight so hard for something and when we get it "it is not worth keeping, or we struggle to hold on to it"

 

[chickie72]

Well in keeping with your conversation, my hubby always says a women's weapon is their mouth! We are prone to lash out and say hurtful things when we are angry and then the war starts! My hubby has learned not to even bother arguing with me, he will walk away or just say "why you being like this Mrs Chickie" (he doesnt call me by my first name it is always Mrs *our last name* LOL . He just says I am a crazy mad woman! When I have calmed down, then we will totally discuss what my mental and "language" breakdown was about. We don't ever stay mad for long because my hubby is a born comedian and he will end up saying something so stupid and funny that I can't stay mad at him anymore and he has learned this and uses it to his advantage! After you spend a lot of time with your significant other, you learn their habits and you either deal with them or you don't, it is all a part of life.
