It is critical that you don't try to gain the love and appreciation of another by working to control them and their decisions, JENNY. It is time to let the people around you set their own rules and boundaries. Give that special person space to decide what is best for them. Meanwhile, you can then decide how to take action accordingly. It may be that you discover things about this person that you probably would never have known if you were the one calling all the shots.
