i guess i am looking more from the point of view that power struggles don't seem to really solve any problems just keep the battles going. you win, she wins etc. it seems to cause you Eriks great anxiety and frustration.
i guess i am just suggesting that there are other ways to work out conflict.
i also see you are not ready or open to them at this time...and that is ok too.
i hope for you peace in this and that soon you will find the freedom and the power you search for.
peace

Belive me, it is VERY difficult.
You are right; the anxiety and frusteration is very high, I'm afraid.
We WILL find that peace....but I don't know if it's in the near future.
Thank you for your assistance.

She's at it again
The new puppy is HERS, and it's like she's expecting US to do EVERYTHING for her!
She's also mad (again) that we spend every spare moment we get on here.
It's not her fault we have more of a social life on here than she does IRL!

Well, I can understand her frustration of you spending every moment on here because you got puppy and it's not fair to it that you aren't spending a lot of time with him/her. Dogs (especially puppies) are less like other animals and are more like little kids, they require a lot of attention and time. That doesn't mean you can't come on here... just come on a bit less. I used to pretty much be online 24/7 but I can't do that anymore, but I still manage to get on for a couple of hours a day though. Besides, it's not like you can't be yourself with the dog, because dogs aren't judgmental like people.

And I also know where you are coming from with your own frustration because I'm going through the same thing... I put in just as much effort as everyone else here taking care of the puppy (if not more some days), and yet my dad seems to think I'm some kind of slacker who doesn't do anything (he doesn't SAY it and claims he doesn't imply it but he is always asking my brother how I did like I'm getting graded or something, and practically is telling me how to do stuff like clean up accidents and take her out in the morning of her as if I havn't by now . Who exactly does he think takes care of her when my brother sleeps 1/2 the day?) The whole "she's everyone's dog when we want to play with her and pet her but she's yours when it comes to the actual work" has been getting better though.
Thanks for this!
