Help a friend
A friend of mine and her DH are having problems. She recently posted this on her facebook.
"wondering why i put up with him sometimes...i know i should do right by the kids but does that always mean i give up my happiness?....feel free to comment"
I know her hubby has times that he is an idiot, and can do retarded stuff. But I also know they love eachother. I'm just not sure how to help her.

All you can do is be there for her to listen and support her no matter what she decides to do. People can love eachother and still hurt eachother...some folks just aren't meant to be married. Hopefully they work it out but if she decides she wants out don't give her a guilt trip. Just support her and be there to put her pieces back together if and when she falls apart.
Marital problems are so stressful...I hope your friend can find a way to be happy.Found an answer to your question?

the best way to help her is by telling her that the problem will not get smaller by sharing it with the whole world,if she needs an ear you are one but not everyone needs to know because not everyone cares.Found an answer to your question?

Stay out of it. She shouldn't be posting stuff like that for the world to see anyway. My mom said never air your dirty laundry. I think that was sage advice.Found an answer to your question?

I would suggest talking to her. Tell her you saw her post on fb and are concerned, let her know you are there if she needs someone to talk to and if she does talk- be there for her and listen to her. I would also suggest marriage counseling (if that is an option for them).Found an answer to your question?
