Arrogance and Pride

 
Hello Dr. Laura, 

I heard a woman caller complaining about her husband's actions toward her.  I was thinking that was exactly my situation with my husband who doesn't feel or respond to my artistic passion.  But when you called her actions arrogant, it felt like a rug was pulled out from under me. I'm an artist and he's an engineer and yet I beat him up to respond the way I want him to towards my art. That call made me realize that, even though my husband of 26 years and I have had differences of opinions in our relationship, I have let my arrogance and pride of thinking I'm right stop me from being my husband's girlfriend. 

I then apologized to my husband for being angry for not acting the way I thought he should or saying the things I wanted to hear from him. He gave me a hug and handed me a card. The card was filled with all of the loving and beautiful words that I have been craving from him for many years. 

Thank you Dr. Laura for changing my heart and my mind to see how to be and experience being my husband's girlfriend. 

Michelle
