[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 407788, member: 393"] Jena, the past 10 years here in tweedleland have been over the top stressful. I've stuffed emotions/feelings for years to the point where my health took a major hit; then husband died & I was left with incredibly challenging 14 y/o twins. It's a bit over 2 years since husband died & the stress continues to a new more frightening level & I find myself "reacting" in far different ways to what I used to let slide. My ability to maintain my typical calm is long gone. I'm learning many new things about myself & ugly things I really do not like. Saying the above, Jena, you've been under an incredible amount of stress over the past months(years). All of us have lied to our spouses/significant others ~ big lies & little white lies. husband has a responsibility to his children & needs to communicate with his children's mother to do that. Was it right that he was texting during the mtg? Probably not. Was it right that he told his ex? Not something I'd want known. Yet it's something that happened. Who does husband have to talk to about the level of stress surrounding your difficult child & easy child of late? He's been extremely supportive of the situation as you've stated time & again. Understand that your husband is living life on the edge right beside you. I'm not making excuses - I've become almost hyper aware of how a husband operates; especially since my husband died. Jena, your reaction to this is hurt ~ what are you going to do with your reaction? Can you let it go & talk rationally later? Is this worth ruining an entire day over? If it is what is your plan? This doesn't involve difficult child or easy child; strictly between you & husband. Honey, this is all part of life in marriage ~ ex's play a big part nowadays. Good, bad or indifferent this is life.
