Man uses wife’s problems at work against her at home DEAR ABBY: My hus band tends to fight dirty, and I don't know how much more I can take. If we argue about some issue between us, he'll say something along the lines of, "This is why you have so much trouble with your colleagues at work." He knows this is a touchy subject, and it upsets me. I have ongoing issues with two work colleagues who give me the silent treatment for months over perceived (but not inten tional) slights, and it causes me a lot of social isolation and anguish. I'm upset that he brings this up when we argue to validate his point of view. Of course, this escalates our fights and eventually he apologizes. However, I know the next disagree ment we have he'll resort to similar tactics. We have tried counsel ing, but it's tough to fit into our busy schedules, and it never stopped him from resorting to personal attacks of character dur ing our fights. I don't know what to do any more. I want to forgive him, but I don't see the point since his apologies don't mean anything. Is there anything left for us to try before I throw in the towel? — TOO TIRED TO FIGHT DEAR TOO TIRED: As I see it, you have two issues to deal with. You have two "colleagues" at work who have ganged up on you and are creating a hostile work environment by giving you the silent treatment. They don't have to love you, but they do have to work coopera tively with you, which they aren't doing. You should report it to human resources or your boss, so it can be dealt with in a professional manner. As to your husband and DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips what he's been doing on the home front, tell him he has a choice — make the time to work with a counselor and learn to fight fair or you will con sult a lawyer about ending the marriage. • • • DEAR ABBY: I recent ly became friendly with a couple who lost their 40-year-old son six months ago. We have grown close over the last several months. The issue is, as they are mourning the passing of their child, they have turned their home into a shrine. There are pictures of him in every room, etc. I know everyone handles grief differently, but this seems excessive, if not a little creepy. I suggested they see a therapist, which they did, but only a couple of times. Believe it or not, they were told they were on the right track! Do you have any suggestions? — FINDS IT DEPRESSING IN INDIANA DEAR FINDS: I sure do! Stop judging that cou ple and expecting them to get over the loss of their child on your timetable. Their therapist has told them they are on the right track, and if you are going to continue to be a sup portive friend, you must abandon your preconcep tions about how they should deal with their loss. Be supportive. Listen when they need to talk. And when you can, give them positive messages that may lighten their load.
