Just wanted to rant for a bit about dh. I have been posting on the ehalth board this week as I have a lump in my breast and am getting it checked . Anyway, I am fuming with dh as he still has not bothered to tell his mum what is happening. Admittedly she is not a great person and I doubt that she would be that bothered, but at the same time she is family and should know what is happening. After all she will want to come and see the kids soon and will expect me to be a happy hostess towards her.....at this moment in time I'm not happy at all!!!

Also, I got rather upset the other night about the prospect of what may happen at my appointment and was discussing with my dh about trying to contact my angel to guide me through this(silly I know!!) and he just acted like i was stupid. I sat in tears about his reaction to me, but calmed down and went to bed. He got into bed, turned over and didn't speak to me. I got upset again and stormed off downstairs and he left me there!!!!! He didn't even come to see how I was feeling.

Bloody men!!!!

Oh, poor you, 2wb, just when you really need his support he's not giving it. He doesn't seem to understand how scared you are and how big a deal this is for you. Tell him how you're feeling and how much you need his support. Men can be so infuriating but most of the time I think they don't really mean to be; they're just clueless! You'll have to spell it out for him.
I hope all goes well for you.

2wb - I feel for you, it must be a really hard time and how annoying that dh isn't being as supportive as you'd like. However, just wondering whether his lack of acknowledgement is perhaps his way of 'coping' with something he is equally worried about??

Would it be worth sitting down and talking through it with him, telling him exactly what you need from him right now?

Let us know how you get on won't you?

Hugs.

Hi 2WB, it isn't silly to try to contact your angel IMO. But he may see it as that way? He shouldn't have ignored you when you're gettin so worried Is he usually ok though? Maybe he's scared too?

What are you doing to try to contact your angel? Are you talking to him/her? I did this recently for dh as he's going through some stuff and when we were sitting in the living room a small bright light went past his head. I almost didn't mention it as it was so bizarre but I did. The next day dh's phone was dead even though he'd just charged it and his phone had been near to the light? Don't know if angels/guides need to take energy or something?

I had a lump investigated last year that turned out to be nothing. Hugs to you I know how worrying it is xxx

hi 2wildbabies.
My dh is generally lovely but his apparent caring is in inverse prpoprtion to the seriousness of a situation!

he is completely and utterly hopeless in the face of me being upset at anything.
If I should shed a tear FORGET IT! He gets quite angry. I cannot for the life of me understand it but I have come to reluctantly accept it.

If I were to mention anything as fanciful as angels he would react with utter contempt!

I rely on my female friends and my sisters for emotional support. And Mumsent of course!
best of luck with the breast lump.

I'm gonna sit and talk to him about things tonight. I know it must be really hard for him at the moment. I just wish he would open up to me sometimes. It's probably a bit of a shock for him now as I am usually a strong person and handle everything with ease....this is just too much of a worry.

As for contacting my angel/guide. I have no clue how to do this.......I was never sure I believed in anything like that. It takes a crisis to show what you believe in I think.
