Dr. Laura: 我经常告诫那些抱怨丈夫的女性，她们早就应该注意到丈夫的缺点。很多女性明知有问题，却一厢情愿地认为婚后可以改变丈夫。你要接受对方的本来面目，要么接受，要么离开。抱怨无法改善婚姻，改变自己才是关键。有时候，需要改变的是你自己。 Alice: 我婚前就看到了一些问题，当时天真地以为婚后会改变，虽然有些改善，但我意识到很多事情不会改变。我感觉像个局外人，付出了很多，却没有得到同等的回报，经常被忽视，或者感觉自己不重要。我不想离婚，但怎样才能让丈夫更重视我们的婚姻？ Cindy: 我和我的丈夫结婚36年了，我的婚姻很痛苦，但不是因为传统的“3A”问题（成瘾、出轨、虐待）。丈夫最近被诊断出患有ADHD和阿斯伯格综合征，这解释了我一直以来的困惑。即使没有“3A”问题，婚姻中也存在冲突和困难。我们之间缺乏情感连接，这让我感到孤独。我会想念他的陪伴，他拥有的技术能力，以及和家人、孙辈们在一起的时光。我知道我需要改变我的反应。

One of my favorite t-shirts in the Merch Store at DrLaura.com) reads, “You Picked Him. Stop Picking on Him!” It’s something I say to callers a lot. Mostly to women who tell me that they can just no longer live with their husband’s bad habits, insensitivities, lack of ambition and such. I always ask, “When did you first notice these negative behaviors?” Followed by, “Did your mother, sister, best friend – anyone point these red flags out to you?” More likely than not, the behaviors existed before the marriage and the children. More likely than not, someone pointed out the potential for a problem.
