Quote From: gallenDo you think people are getting bored with you or have they given up?
You know, I have been very surprised at the number of message board people that respond to Kelly and I when we appear with Dr. Phil. I think after the initial sting has faded away, a lot of the message bored people move on to another "fresh kill". Kelly and I went out for dinner and a movie the same day we appeared with Dr. Phil, and she couldn't believe she was walking through the mall with "America's Most Hated Husband". I am a little like you - I don't see what it is about Kelly and I that people respond to like they do. I have made my thoughts pretty clear and try to give sound reasoning for what they are. I think may be everyone has been in a personal conflict with someone else that fits that description.
That guy from the last wifestyles was worse than you by quite a bit and so far I've only seen 1 post about him.
His name is Ken, and we got to meet him and his family. They all seem to be pleasant enough people.
I go back once a week or so to check YOUR comments, Grant, on this board (and Kelly's). I've asked myself why I continue to do that.
You seem to be smart, you seem to be funny, you seem to be a really nice guy, yet somehow you clearly didn't get "it". What has made you worth following, to me, was that you a) admitted you didn't get "it" and b) appeared to truly want to get "it" even though "it" wasn't what you'd come to Dr. Phil about. You came across to me as somebody who was a seeker of something you weren't going to be able to find on your own.
What I've seen as I've followed your journey is someone who is continuing to try, who is willing to evaluate himself and his motives, and who has kept his sense of humor about possibly being "America's Most Hated Husband." I see you making progress, gaining insight, and growing more introspective every time I check back.
Too many people give up and just quit when marriage gets hard these days. That, for me anyway, is why I continue to check in regularly - you're a young couple worth rooting for. Best of luck to you, Grant and Kelly.
