[QUOTE="Ann1010, post: 752757, member: 24229"] From the inside it didn't seem as if he was treating her like a 5 year old. She has a lot of stomach issues (probably from anxiety) and he was trying to see if there was something he could help with. But afterwards I see how it could've been taken wrong. In my head it's not like we walk on eggshells, it's like we have a shock collar on and are being trained. In the last 3 months we've learned (the hard way), not to ask her where's she going, not to ask if she's going to be home for dinner, not to ask her work schedule, not to ask if she's going to come home that night, not to ask if there's something wrong (even if she's crying or appears upset), not to ask most personal questions. So, it's become as if we have a stranger living with us, who we have nothing in common. And since we can't ask any personal questions, we have nothing to talk to her about. [/QUOTE]
