    The other day my much-younger friend texted me frustrated with some from-Mars behavior by her husband. She used inelegant language to describe him and what he did. I was reminded of this thread where the OP requested members to kindly not refer to her husband as an **hole. :grinning:

    It is interesting how a woman can have the strongest complaints about her husband, but if others call him names, she will leap to his defense. I wonder if she leaps to "his" defense or that of "her" husband.

    Maybe it is because we are told only about their frustrations by OP's in such cases. Beyond that there is also regular life chugging along with small and big joys. A while back there was a post by a member whose morning to night routine of seva for husband and in-laws had many of us seeing red, me included. Then, recently I was searching the forum for tips on annuals versus perennials, and came across the most charming description of that poster planting a hydrangea based on advice/loving prodding from her husband. Domestic felicity comes in all sizes and forms. :kissingheart:

    I often see the abbreviation DH or dH (I write this way to signify a miniscule sampling at a kink in life-graph, like we do in differential calculus), even in posts that have descriptions of serious abuse by the husband. I had wondered --- would that "d" stand for dastard(ly) ? or still be dear?

    This is so true. That’s why many of older generations’ folks will often tell - this is your personal matter, to marriage problems. Their take was, if they interfere, they will be bad guy long after the couple have kissed and patched up.

    There is often an unseen ‘pehelu’ side to the OP/ OP’s story.

    I used to have a signature line that says “Jets are scrambled and ready to go at the sight of Rel posts”...Which is what happens, the jets are dispatched without the pause of pehelu side, and hence the name calling of **hole (rih used two stars), which shocked the OP :)
