Reply #9: Sorry you had to go to through that experience.

Reminds me of a story (sorry).

When Hubby and I were in our early 20's, before we took the plunge, I told my evil, mean, spiteful and vindictive mother that we were going to move in together (in the early 80's). She told me that if I did that, she would never speak to me again.

And so ... I said .. "Have a nice life!" Have only talked to her sporadically in the last 20+ years. I'm not being spiteful. We just don't agree on anything - anything.

By the way, we've been together for 27 years, and married for 21. So much for the stereotypes.
