The wise oak tree….

There once was a wise old oak tree. He was happy living in the forest with his friends, his saplings. His saplings were content to bask under his big, strong branches and they knew that they would always be sheltered from harm by him. The saplings also protected the oak tree from the chance passersby that meant to do him harm.
After years of this harmonious and symbiotic relationship, the saplings got lazy. They allowed a particularly destructive breed of fungus to infiltrate their happy little oak family and attach itself to the wise old oak tree. At first, the saplings thought that this fungus was benign. It was even kind of cute and innocent-looking. The saplings, the oak tree and the fungus would all hang out and have great times together and the fungus always seemed to fit right in with everyone else. Little did the oaks know, the fungus was only getting started. The saplings didn't know that this fungus was the deadly Oak Wilt fungus and would eventually try to kill their poor old wise oak.
Before the fungus reared its ugly head, the oak bore an acorn. The acorn was the oak's pride and joy. This acorn was large and joyful, a great acorn. The oak loved its little acorn and would never have done anything to harm it. The oak could never have conceived of hurting the little acorn, it was the oak tree's pride and joy.
Time passed and the acorn grew. The oak tree and the fungus grew distant from one another. The oak tree never wanted to be around the fungus. The oak tree wasn't spiteful, it just wanted the fungus to listen to it. The oak tree tried numerous times to impart its wisdom to the fungus, but the fungus was set in its ways. It had been raised narrow-minded and it liked for things to stay that way. On top of the problems between the oak and the fungus, the fungus began to make problems for the saplings. The saplings who had been there for the oak since their conception were now being harassed by this malicious fungus. The fungus wanted nothing more than to have the oak to itself. It had no regard for anyone but itself and in its envy, it was blind to the benevolence of the wise old oak tree.
One day, the saplings noticed that the fungus had become more malignant in its actions. It seemed that the fungus was trying desperately to kill the old wise oak tree, and the saplings refused to sit silently and watch. The oak tree had been their protector and confidant for years and now this fungus was threatening everything they had built. The saplings decided that they could no longer stand by and let their oak die. They launched a crusade against the fungus. Saplings who had been fighting for years put aside their differences to unite and save the oak tree. They knew that this disease was bigger than all of them and that it could hurt their oak tree right down to the heartwood.
The saplings selected a sacrificial lamb, if I may, to sit down with the oak tree and have a serious discussion. The little sapling poured its heart out to the oak tree and explained its worries. The tree sat quietly and listened. In all of his wisdom, he had overlooked his own life and his own relationship with the fungus. He had failed to see how detrimental the fungus was to his vitality. The saplings were concerned and they shared information with the oak tree. They told him what the fungus had been doing and saying behind his back, they told him everything. The saplings may have tolerated the fungus in the beginning, but once the fungus began to hurt the oak tree, the gloves came off.
The war was long and hard. There were casualties. The saplings fought fiercely to maintain their harmonious relationship with the wise old oak tree. After much fighting, the fungus (who was tired of being ignored and needed to find someone who would make it the center if its universe) eventually disappeared from the lives of the oak tree and its saplings. They all, including the young acorn, lived happily in the forest and never thought of the fungus again.

Apr. 5, 2007 at 3:06 PM Tell them to grow up, and that your man made the choice to be with you....they dont have to be with you....he does!!! They should all grow up and see that they have no say in your relationship. Your man should have balls enough to tell them to butt out. He is a father now, and they need to realize that!! If they cant, then they need to leave~

Apr. 5, 2007 at 5:48 PM Oh my gosh Heidi...I am so sorry!! They are horrible...and not to mention immature!  They need to realize that you two are married, and you have a family now.  They have no right to be butting into your business like that.  When you get married, you make a vow to live for your spouse, you make a vow to start a life together.  Therefore, your hubby should realize that you are his wife, he shouldn't let his friends say such mean things about you, and get in the middle of everything.  I hope he sees what is most important: his wife and son! Not his friends who act like they are still in high school.  I am not saying that when you get married you ditch your old friends.  But his friends obviously need to grow up and stay out of your relationship. I think your room mates need to definitely move out and leave you and your family alone.

Apr. 5, 2007 at 6:43 PM I have a temper problem so I dont know if my advice would be the best but ummm...yeah, they totally disrespected you. You need to confront them and tell them that they are being completely immature and unnecessarily hurtful and that you understand that they are your husbands friends-but they arent yours and as long as they keep fucking with u  will keep ur son away from that hatefullness. ur son needs role models in his life-not assholes. andif ur husband has any respect for u he'd let them know what they did was fucked up, that hes married to u and that if they value his friendship theyll cut that shitt OUT!!!..whew im angry now too. That F'd Up!!!! grrr

Apr. 9, 2007 at 10:43 PM I agree with christinarangel.  Heidi, that shit is uncalled for.  If it were me, I would be moving!  You and your baby don't need to be around people that are as immature and disrespectful as these guys are!  You certainly don't want your son growing up around people like that, right!  I know you must love your husband, but you need to let him know that this bothers you.  If he is any man at all, he will say something to his friends.  I know how it is though, it isn't always that easy.  My boyfriend is the same way with his friends, they are assholes, too.  And they certainly don't like me!  Probably because I am a bitch.  but sometimes you have to be like that!  You have to let these guys know that you are not to be F*cked with!  Well, I love you lots Heid, I am always here for you.  Keep your head up ok!  Later

Apr. 15, 2007 at 2:49 AM in this i know where you come from. my husbands friends feel the same way about me. i told him he had to choose between his friends or his family and if he wanted both then he had to learn his family came first and that his friends needed to learn there place in his life. I also told him i didnt want our daughter around them. Because for the most part i dont like the way one treats females and i dont like the way they treat me. Needless to say his friends dont like me and have called me numerous things to both myf ace n behind my back {ball and chain, death trap, bitch, fat and cu(^t. they say i only got pregnant to keep him around.  } i have learned to ignore his friends {not let our daughter near them} n the easiest thing i can do to avoid conflict in his life is to just avoid his friends and not say a word when we are around them. My only question is does he stand up to them? my own husband wont stand up for me. so again i know how u r feeling.
