No Rules...Just Resolutions
by: Don Carter

Hi France...There's not enough information in your post to really give anything more than an off-the-cuff opinion -- something that not many of us are inclined to do when talking about someone else's relationship.

It sounds like a tough spot to be in and one that would take a considerable amount of healthy communication between the partners to resolve.

I don't know of any "rules" that would fit in situation like these -- unless the rules were for healthy communication. You can find fair fighting "rules" by copying and pasting this link into your browser's address bar:

If these don't help you and your partner talk about the issues in a way that leads to resolution, then you might want to seek help from a counselor or clergy member. If that doesn't help, it then may come down to a decision to go your separate ways...or not.

In my opinion...it's okay to have and stand up for your own needs and to make decisions that are in your best interests -- and it's okay for your partner to do the the same. Considering the needs of any children involved are also important and may require some professional advice before making a decision.

I'll send out a few prayers in your direction.

Don
