I wish the ditching of friends who aren't friends of the marriage worked. WH's best friend has always hated me and is just now going through a divorce and living with a new girlfriend. He's in WH's ear all day, every day. There is no breaking those two up.Pretty sure he's been pushing WH on. If I understand the rules of this, it's up to WH to end the friendship. Not going to happen.

Pink,
Tell him he can choose between the toxic friend or the marriage. If he chooses incorrectly, you know where his priorities are. Declare your value, if he balks you know he isn't willing to do what it takes to make the marriage a priority.

D-day: 5/18/10, lies and TT till (11/26/10).
Currently in R.
Don't carry others crap. It's your job to fix yourself, not your spouse.

You don't have to like your boundaries. You just have to set and enforce them.

bumping. Boundaries are so important.
FBW then 46, XWHNPDPAFTG the destroyer of my entire life. D-Day 1 '99, D-Day 2,3,4,5,6... '09-'11, D '15. I fell apart. I put myself back together. Forgiveness isn't required. I'm happy and healthy now, and MY new life is good.
