I don't explicitly ask why, but I know they have a strong desire to help me and that I don't often let them.
Whether that it's they're overzealous when I give them the chance, inexperienced with those less fortunate, or that they are all I could be and want to help me get there.
But for some reason my voice and opinion doesn't come into it.
My church has a deep pride problem that they have the opportunity to help me get where they see I should be, a mother, a wife, they act as parents when I don't need parents, I need friends

Awww @avant-garde
That's so so hard. I hope this letter you have written doesn't fall on deaf ears.
What would be helpful from the forums community at this time? Anything in particular you think we can do to make it even a little easier for you?

My letter was well written?
My elder is good at responding, it just takes him some time, and he's moving house at the moment.
If my elder doesn't respond with at least some understanding, I'll send it to my pastor, he has no idea about Delilah and has only met her once.
