    we tried to wait for marriage; blew it last night

    My boyfriend, of four months, and I have been talking about getting married this summer and were planning to wait (for sex) for our wedding night. We even made a list of reasons to wait that I carry around with me and we revisit often. But, we've both been married before and have had sex with...

    Success stories for remarriage very soon after divorce?

    Hi. I am very quickly jumping from the Divorce/Seperation forum to this one, and a little concerned with myself about it. Two and a half years ago I could be found on the Unequally-Yoked and Reconciliation forums. Then I spent about two years on the Divorce forum knowing that divorce was most...

    I think I'm ready to file

    Okay, he has clearly proven that he has HIS best interests in mind and not mine and the kids anymore. I realized this last weekend that I have to make my own plans and stop believing that his ideas are good for us. :( I'm thinking that I will see a lawyer in September when my seasonal...

    Need a prayer for a mom with newborn

    My friend just had a 10# baby in her home with a midwife. This is something she felt strongly about, and was pleased she could do, after forced C-sections with her first two children. Immediately after her baby boy was born she had a series of mini strokes. Her healthy new baby is at home...

    Dh; depressed and suicidal

    There is a lot to this story. I really don't have time to get into all the details, but I will give the basics. We've been together 22 years. We have two young children. He's an atheist, I'm a Christian. He has done things in his childhood and youth that make him feel ashamed, lost, and...

    question:should I limit kids contact w/ adulterous/unsaved spouse?

    Entering into the divorce process.... I am at a crossroads and, so far, really sitting on the fence about what I should do. I can stay in the state where I live now which will severely limit time that my children will have with their father. Or, we can move closer to his work which is several...

    Need great date night ideas w/ dh, please

    Long story short - he cheated, we're giving reconciliation one last try, we have two young children, and we REALLY need to create some romance and fun in our marriage! What were your favorite dates while you were single, and why? If you and dh or dw have a date night, what are your favorites...

    Need advice and prayer, unsaved dh makes life confusing.

    Dh and I have been together for twenty years and have two young children. He doesn't live with our kids and me because his current job involves a lot of travel. We see him for three days every three or four weeks and talk on the phone everyday. He's been cheating on me since October and had a...

    I did not see this coming...

    Dh wants me. He wants us. He has realized that the grass is not greener elsewhere. He realizes that every yard has it's own weeds. And that it's actually less work for him to stay in the yard that he has already been taking care of for twenty years. He wants to work on our marriage. I had left...

    Need Advice... Dh is sending mixed signals

    Dh has a girlfriend. They are talking about getting married in a couple of years even though they barely know each other. Sometimes she isn't sure she wants a divorce from her husband to be with mine. Sometimes dh thinks that he and I COULD improve our relationship afterall, and he shouldn't...

    Need advice on when to file...

    What benefit is there to filing for divorce? I would reconcile if dh ever wants to (but I doubt he ever will). He claims to have no desire to work on our marriage now or in the future. His actions in the last year are my proof of this. He loves being out of the house and is dating whomever he...

    No turning back now

    I told him that if he had a sexual affair, then we were through. He officially did that a few days ago. :cry: I'm pretty much speechless. I don't know what to do next, I guess: breath in, breath out, right foot, left foot... Is it too early to seek out divorcecare? Do I put house for sale...

    Dh only wants me for one thing.

    Lately dh seems to be getting his emotional needs met with other women online. He's not having sex with anyone else, but that's ALL he wants out of me. He isn't acting like my friend, spouse, or father of our children. He doesn't care about our daily lives or want to talk about anything, except...

    It feels strange to ask, but I need a vehicle!

    I usually don't ask God for material things. My daily prayer is that the Lord show me how to be a blessing to others and will give my things away when I see a need. Then I thank Him for my many many blessings. :bow: God has always provided everything I need before I even ask. Right now, my...

    MIL believes in Santa, but not God!

    So the in-laws were here for Christmas. We were talking about how and when to explain the truth about Santa Claus to my children. And why I've been playing along with the fantasy of Santa all this time. I only went along with the Santa thing because dh insisted on it. Now I have to answer for my...

    I think I have a problem...

    I had a glass of wine with lunch. Usually I wait until evening when I know I won't have to drive anywhere. Today, I know I need to drive myself to my kids' school in about two hours. So, anyway, I had a glass to relax a little from the stress of not yet being ready for the holidays. Then I...

    Safety of my children vs. seeing my sister's family for Christmas

    I'm going to try to make this short and sweet. Basically a few years ago my nephews, who are several years older than my kids, did some VERY inappropriate things! I actually witnessed these things. My sister has selective hearing and memory about it. She thinks I am a liar and is very...

    At what point has he abandoned our marriage?

    I'm so confused.... Dh doesn't live with us because he has just begun (six months ago) driving a truck cross-country. He is only home three days a month. While on the road we talk on the phone almost every single day. But, he is also online making new women friends every single day. We...

    myspace.com

    Okay, in your opinion, what constitutes cheating? Dh is collecting "girlfriends" on myspace. Can a man just be friends with a woman? When does it cross the line? What boundaries should I insist upon? He already won't let me see his page unless he is standing right there, but he does tell me...

    Are my efforts hopeless?

    Dh stopped by today while unexpectedly driving through town. We had an incredible time together (kids were at school). Afterward, he told me that he was thinking of listing himself as "single" instead of "married" on myspace.com in hopes of attracting more attention. I told him that I don't...
