My wife has gone crazy again. She called me Wednesday evening from her mother's house and said she's not coming home. My son is with her, but my daughter is stayin with me. Please pray that my son will be ok in that situation. I'm not sure what's going on with her. She's been acting odd for the last couple of months and I knew something was going to happen. But what worries me most of all is the fact that my son has been acting cold towards me for the last few weeks...he's been saying I hate you and won't have anything to do with me. He's 9 yrs old and doesn't fully understand the situation, and I think my in laws and my wife have been filling his head full of lies about me. Just pray that God will reveal to him the truth in this situation.

If he'd come home, I'd be ok. I don't care what my wife does anymore. I"ve lived in this hell for 20 yrs...walking on egg shells afraid I'd say or do something wrong and she'd be gone again. If she wants a divorce, I sure ain't gonna fight it, but I will fight for my son.

Thanks for being there for me. I may not get to check the board much in the future because I'll probably be moving in with my mother since I can't pay the notes on this house while waiting on Social Security to make a decision. If they deny my claim, I've got to try to work somewhere. Just pray that GOd will help me with this depression and anxiety and that it won't keep me from functioning normally.

Thanks!
Tim

I'm sorry to read about your situation. Perhaps you should go along with plans of a divorce instead of letting her "call the shots" and be in control of the situation.

Keep us updated as to how you are doing. My prayers are with you.

Sorry Tim....I can relate. Hang in there, and do the best you can with regards to your son. Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, the way they think is out of your countrol. There is only so much you can do when you are apart and seeds of hatred are spread by those around them. What I have found is my son seems unable to divide his loyalties between both parents. In a perfect world, that is how we hope it plays out. In the real world, its a different story.

My prayers are with you.

Separation and divorce are such hard situations to handle. Stay strong for your son and daughter. They will realize the truth in time. Prayers coming from the Burgh for you and your kids. ((Hugs))

Thank you for your prayers and support. I'm having a hard time right now, but I'll be ok.

If I don't reply to you guys, don't take it personally. I'm having to use my daughter's old dinosaur puter with windows 95 and it sometiems won't let me open S2K. Anyone know where I can download a newer version of Internet explorer such as IE 5.0? This computer won't run IE 6. I tried that last night.
Email me with answers as I may not be able to get back on S2k. Lindaloo has my email address.

So sorry, Tim. Your son will understand the truth sooner or later. You just hang in there and keep letting him know you love him. Your S2K family are pouring our prayers out to you and your family. Take care!

I'm not supposed to be here right now, but I have to be a good friend and lend a helping hand.

Try Firefox or Netscape, Firefox is better though from what I have heard. You can download and preview what it is about at this link.

Brother Tim.....I've been thru the EXACT same thing, it's NOT easy, nor is it pretty. It wears and tears on your emotions, your physical health, when I went thru this garbage, I lost over 50 lbs, my health was in the comode to say the very least. I *tried* to "stick it out" primarily for the kids sake, in the end, by doing so, it caused more harm than good. I finally made the decision and left, it was the HARDEST thing I've ever had to do and probably ever will.....in the end, everything worked out for the BEST! That was over 11 years ago and I have the best relationship with my son and daughter now, no hard feelings, no guilt. Hang in there Brother and if you need to chat, email me, Linda has my email addy and if there is ANY THING and I DO mean ANYTHING, don't hesitate to holler!

Thanks again for your prayers. Right now, I'm feeling pretty low cause I'm home alone. I'm going to my mom's in a few mins so i won't be alone.

I'm going to get thru this and I will live to see the day that her world is turned upsided down on her just like mine has been. If it wasn't for my son, I would be fine. I just worry about him being in that hell hole that he's in. I know how my mother in law is. She brought a guy into her house so my wife's oldest sister could have an affair with him and she was married and had a 2 yr old.

Anyway, please continue praying for me. I will be off of the internet after the 1st of June. The phone bill is due then and I have no way to pay it. I'm still waiting to hear from SS. Funny, she blames me for this, yet she is the one who caused me the depression to begin with but she's just too blind to see that.

Thanks again for being here.

Tim
