It's really hard sometimes
to be supportive of your spouse when he wants to do something dangerous. I know I'm not alone in feeling this way, and I also know I'm not alone when I put on a "brave face" when I hear scary news of what the possibility is.
It's equally hard to be supportive when plans change, and danger temporarily subsides... and instead of rejoicing at knowing that danger will wait for another day, I tell my husband that he just needs to be patient, and wait for the next opportunity.

I've been there too. Sometimes I have to just sit there and be quiet, especially when he tells me about the latest thing he volunteered for. My hubby has learned not to ask me what I think, because he knows I'll tell him. Being supportive is not as easy as it sounds, especially when you know what could be waiting around the corner. But hang tight ... you're not alone. You've got friends in your corner!
I totally understand and agree.
After 13 years, I just smile and tell him to be careful. Goodness knows I wouldn't want him standing in my way of doing what I want to do....although I can't think of anything dangerous that I would be willing to do!
