A very interesting question. I was just pondering that very thing. I say YES!
Now if I could just do it. |

no. It is time to start counseling. |
|

kimbarlaayy
 |
yes. you dont need that. why live with a man who will just put you down all your life, when you could find someone who can make you feel good? |
|

Heck yes! |

Nice pic, but anyway if they shoot them down all the time and you've asked them to stop and you've told them the damage they're causing and the still continue doing it then yeah it's time to move on and find someone who treats you the way you deserve and treats you how they want to be treated. I hope I helped and I hope you're not victim to anything like this. Let me know how things go for you!!! |
|

yup |

Serious =+)
|
If they are shooting down yours, Um, yeah,
I'd say to try to talk to them but basically, yeah, someone who has such low self esteem that they want to drag yours down as well so they can feel better and be in control, needs to GO! |

Your spouse can criticize, but these things are only "shot down" if you don't take care of yourself. Entertain your hopes, chase your dreams, pursue your aspirations, work towards your goals, and acquire the things you want and need. Nobody can stop you from achieving what you wish to achieve without your consent. I don't know that it's time to "throw in the towel," but I do know that it's at least time to take assertive control of your life! |

well you can't be talking about your spouse - cause every other post you've put up has been about how great your relationship is |

No but if he ever cheated on you then it's over he's a fool not to keep a hot woman as yourself happy you could replace him in a heart beat... Hope things work out for you guys. |

Yes...a freind always wanted to go to medical school and she didn't becasue her boyfriend at the time (now soon to be ex-husband) said he would leave her if she did. Now its been 15 years and he filed for divorce and she has no career. She should have dumped his asss 15 years ago and went ot medical school. |

Yes it would be. |

your spouse should be supportive of you. they need to understand where you are coming from. if you can't them to do that then they may not be the right one for you. |
|

|
yes, it's contrary to what a relationship is supposed to be about |
|

It depends on what these "goals, aspirations, wants and needs" are in the first place. |
|

Yes. |

|
well that's insanely rude.
i would've thrown in thee
towel after the first one!!
Um. yeah. so the answer?
THROW IN THE TOWL!! |
|

Yep. Fortunately, I will never have to experience that. My spouse supports my hopes and dreams. But if your spouse does not, then you made a bad choice in spouses. It is either time to call a marital counselor or an attorney.
Good luck! |

I'd throw in the towel on the marriage. But don't give up on what you want and need....especially for a MAN! |

You have to answer a few questions to yourself.......
Do you love the person
Does that person treat you as good as when you first dated
Do you have believe in yourself
Can you get by without your spouse
Would life be better
Is it worth saving the relationship
Most importantly you come first and you should reach for the stars and let nobody get in your way |
|

Scott S
 |
Yes, if he is not supportive, you need to move on...Then, um, contact me....;-) |

I'd say seek counseling. Everyone gives up too easily. He could be going through some sort of internal conflict himself. |

oh most definitely, a spouse is supposed to be there for u every which way possible, for moral support, for love, commitment, etc, so if they're not fulfilling there place in that relationship, then why exactly do u still need them around for! |
|

You seem like an awesome woman so I certainly hope this isn't happening to you personally, but yes, it's time to tell him to shut his blow hole and support you or get out of your way. |
|

I think it is definately time to reevaluate things.... |

Definitely! Your partner should be someone who encourages and inspires you! Not tear you down and undermine your hopes and dreams! When someone tries to tear you down like that, that is a form of control and it will only get worse! He will eventually try to control you in every aspect! He is trying to dash all your hopes and dreams because he wants you to think that he is your only hope! That without him, your life is nothing! Don't fall into that trap! I'm sure you know what wonderful things you are capable of and you shouldn't let anyone stop you from being all you can be! |

You have to be able to live your own life within reason of the relationship or you will never be happy. If someone suppress' you this much, then you may want to seek couple counseling if you think the relationship is worth saving. If their are kids involved you owe it to them to make an effort at least. Best wishes and may whichever road you choose finally get you to those dreams. |

Well i think you need to go to counseling or at least have a really serious conversation on why they are being this way. I would think that their is some underlying issue that causes them not to want the other to succeed, not because they don't love you. I don't think you should throw in the towel yet, try to face and solve the issue before it comes to that. |
