Stressful life

Philippines
October 6, 2007 10:16am CST
My close friend narrated to me that while she was busy attending her sick mother, she just knew that her husband was going always together with his female co-office mate...he will go with her in buying things, help her in delivering her frozen goods (her part time business), whatever she suggest on buying his clothing, he bought it. Worst was, he didn't ask permission from his wife that he will join with his group in going to another place. After she knew it, her stress was added and became angry everyday. Today, she is suffering of heart ailment. What can you advise to my female friend?

what a pitiable woman she is!if she were my close friend.i'll ask her if she think it's neccessary to continue this marrige,for such a unresponsible husband to company with.if she says yes,i'll suggest a really careful and rational talk with her husband.it may not help,but will be a way to reliese and reconsider their future.

Thank you Sham! I think you're right. She's just confused nowadays with heavy heart of mixed emotions. I will tell her to undergo marital counseling. It might help her or them. Thanks for sharing....

flirting - no point being married to a man who doesn't care
To be honest I would leave the guy if I was her. What a pathetic man! He should be helping take care of her sick mother. Instead of helping his wife and mother-in-law, he prefers to spend time and flirt with a co-worker. No point in being married to a guy who doesn't care.

I advise your friend to talk with her husband directly.It's impossible in my opinion to let the family continue.It is advisable for your friend to abandon her husband and find her love.Bless your friend.

Hi islandrose. I think nothing more than give her a companion. I mean I am not sure about your friend's need. For some of my friend, I know she will filled with anger when she faced this kind of thing, so I will do nothing but just accompany her to scold that person. Haha. I mean nothing much can be done, then I have to at least do something to let her feel better. But some of my friends are too fragile and can't stand it, so I will like stay by her side and telling her it's going to be ok. I mean we friends are still there. (sounds like I have a lot of friends facing this)Well, yea, I mean life tends to be like this, what to do.. Hope my words help. All the best to you and your friend.

my advice is first 1)to sit a quite and think neutrally whether its a real problem or it is stress which is showing thing microscopically. 2)than let me know whether she really wont to carryout with her husband than just give him time and meanwhile keep talking with him. 3)if she is not able to bear his activity than also think for few time about past time they have spend together and what will be a future without him and if yore heart says that future will be brighter than kick on his a.. twice and say goodbye.

Hi dr! According to her update, they talk with each other, however, it always ends in heated argument, and my friend always ends with stress. Yes, I told her to keep cool in order to come up with a solution. Thanks for sharing...

I feel bad for your friend but in order to contunue in this relationship she needs to decide how much she is willing to risk. I think relationships are like gambles. Never put in more than you can afford to lose.

HI,I am sorry to hear that.to be frank.i also don't have good ways to deal with the thing like that .because the life is different ,the people are different ,the attitudes are also different .but i just want to say to het:life is yourself's life, you should live happily though there are many bad things.if you are happy ,your kids and your friends and your parents will be happy.think of them.we all need to find happiness in life.maybe she just need to be optimistic to life.wish she happy tomorrow,everyday.
