Junkie -

Tough situation, man, and I feel for you. Back when I was not-so-young but still incredibly stupid, I failed even to address problems in the relationship and let things slide. My story did not end well, but based on what I now know, and am still learning, I will offer my prayers now that I know who is really in charge of my life.

Don't know if this will help or hurt, but there is a national simulcast next Sunday IIRC about marriages and how to make them work. If I were married, or engaged, I would be there. Hard to admit even my my (advanced) age that I don't have many answers, but I am willing to learn. So it may help you as well.

Both of you need to go slow, and work in mutual love and understanding - for your own sakes as well as the kids. The alternative is too easy to obtain these days, and too destructive on everyone. There is a reason that God hates divorce - it is that destructive.

Junkie,

Do what needs to be done and what's best for you and your family. Prayers headed your way.

If you need to talk or just vent, send me a pm anytime and I'll give you my number.

Take care!

Keep up the prayers guys, they are more appreciated than you could ever know.

The future is still uncertain but at least some good things are coming out of this. My fat ass has been keeping busy, getting rid of all this nervous energy by working out and cleaning the house. I think I've lost 10lbs already.

It has been a wake up call to take better care of myself so I can be there for my kids and hopefully my wife for a long time.


Or at least I'll be able to look good in a thong.  ;D  ;)

Thanks again,
Brett

Thanks again guys.

I put my faith in God at the outset that this would be resolved as he saw fit and I am accepting of that. He has given me the faith and knowledge to make the hardest decision of my life.

Things are worse than I ever imagined and Monday morning I am filing for divorce. She has agreed to give me full custody of the kids and the house so that I can sell it and buy one I can afford on a single income and make a new home for the kids. This is just a house now and doesn't even seem like a home anymore.

I am staying strong for the kids sake but everyday my heart breaks a little more. I would not wish this feeling on my worst enemy. The worst thing about this is the strain it is putting on the kids but they are young and will adapt. They ask questions that I can't answer and make me want to burst into tears, but I will persevere and continue to stay strong for them and know that they will still be well cared for.

Thanks for listening and keep up the prayers, I think I will need a lot more before this is over.

Brett -

Sad news indeed. Stay strong in your faith in the Lord's blessings, now is the time ha-satan will come after you hard.

Our prayers are with you and your babies, as well as with your wife as she struggles in her path.

Brett,

You and your kids are in my thoughts.  If you need anything send me a PM.  I'm just a few miles away.
