[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 379746, member: 4264"] Beth, I totally hear ya. Been there a time or two (or ten) myself. Isn't it frustrating that people love to be couch critics? I know the feeling of snapping peoples heads off (example: with your dad today) and not feeling good about it yet needing to show them that you can't take it anymore, won't etc. Answers? I haven't got any. But I totally do understand. I think there is something to be said for just point blank asking those who are driving you nuts with this stuff to just STOP. A simple "Okay, I'm happy you have opinions on MY life, but I'm equally uninterested in hearing them. I will ask you once to keep them to yourselves and if you choose to continue perhaps we can simply sit down over tea and take turns telling each other what we REALLY think about one anothers choices and actions in their lives. If it isn't a two way street, we should just NOT GO THERE". ;) You are correct that you absolutely have a right to your own feelings and I'm sorry so much is happening around you to aggravate you. I hope it gets better. (((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
