[QUOTE="HowMuchLonger, post: 410972, member: 11280"] I believe you are all right. Until you've walked a mile in these shoes, your feet are pretty sweet smelling. This particular acquaintance is not a mean spirited person but can be very opinionated and abrupt. She is almost always there when I need her, but I do know her personality so I'm usually pretty desperate to call her....it's usually those days where you just need a "voice" and she's pretty funny so a laugh or two isn't bad. I've told myself in the past to NOT speak to her about these things but she seems to suck me in everytime. She herself hasn't had the easiest life but it was more marital problems than parenting problems. She has been very blessed with a great daughter (sometimes I'm SO jealous of her...marital problems and all..but the grass is always greener right?). I've become so wishy-washy of late that I've turned into the type of person I normally wouldn't want to hang out with...can you divorce yourself?!. I swear I read something or talk to someone and I go "YES!! THAT'S IT!!" and 20 minutes later I hear the opposite and sigh and return to the drawing board having never given the first part a chance....essentially getting nothing accomplished because I'm paralyzed with fear to move forward with any decisions in case I make things worse. I seriously need to "man up" and just go with my instincts. [/QUOTE]
