So for anyone reading this - I completely agree with all your advice!. Then again, I doubt any man who's not in medicine is willing to put up with the sacrifices of being a neurosurgeons husband. I get sweet texts some morning when he is on his way to the office and that's all it takes the rest of my day is amazing. They can't seem to deal with it, and shouldn't have to. Sorry, your blog cannot share posts by email.
Is it wrong not to. I respect what my husband does but I have nothing but my pets and a dusty Ivy Leaguedegree. Love is a relation where compromise sacrifices and understanding matters a lot. I decided to sort of play along because she was amazing and I didn't believe some of the things she was telling me she actually believed.

I could go on, but this should give you the idea. Do FaceTime with her when she gets there to drink tea. I don't think people really understand how lonely it can get, unless you are married to one.
