I wish you were a Christian - I've often heard that they know a lot about forgiveness.

BUT he's a full grown adult, capable of taking care of himself - and they are not & therefore they need me more at this point. And he understands that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29562711.post-1156795293243362212006-08-28T16:01:00.000-04:002006-08-28T16:01:00.000-04:00As a wife and mother and one of the posters but no...As a wife and mother and one of the posters but not #568 - I can understand and identify with the statement "my marriage means more to me than my kids." my marriage is the absolute core of my life, it is the complete foundation that my child is built upon. how can you love the windows more than the house? my children are certianly more precious to me than life, and I would die for my child with out blinking or thinking twice, but my marriage means more to me than anything because it so deeply woven into everything else including parenthood. I would not have become a paret with out this marriage. And I hohpe my daughter sees that and understands it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29562711.post-1156769474125877952006-08-28T08:51:00.000-04:002006-08-28T08:51:00.000-04:00Hooray for a Firefly reference!A man who controls ...Hooray for a Firefly reference!<BR/><BR/>A man who controls your social life is sending up a big, red "I'm a controlling abuser" flag. In my experience, it's only a matter of time before the controlling husband becomes the abusing husband.

And I'm sure even just being forgiven, at this point, is bittersweet.<BR/><BR/>But, honestly? I think you should write that book. About the affairs, but mostly about you and your husband. Because there are plenty of stories that teach us to lay blame, pity the victim and feel good and righteous that we've never done anything so terrible, but true contrition and forgiveness? That's *really* rare. It sounds like that's what you've got, an honest-to-God redemption experience. I know I could learn a thing or two from a story like that.<BR/><BR/>Go hug your husband for me. What an amazing man! And best wishes to you to keep that in your heart, give him all the love he deserves.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29562711.post-1156680462452212472006-08-27T08:07:00.000-04:002006-08-27T08:07:00.000-04:00568...

I've always felt that it was impossible for me to maintain any kind of a friendhsip with women whose leashes were significantly longer than mine. I rarely am granted an evening out, never a weekend, have precious little in the way of 'me money' and am required to give extremely long advance notice when I require my husband to 'babysit' and even then he probably won't show and claim he's working late. In short, I'm a lousy friend to anyone whose own leash is longer than mine. I probably can't have lunch with you, go shopping with you or run off to Tahiti. Socializeing with me pretty much consists of coming over and drinking coffee in my kitchen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29562711.post-1156634614862545392006-08-26T19:23:00.000-04:002006-08-26T19:23:00.000-04:00just wondering if #568 can clarify this statement:...just wondering if #568 can clarify this statement:<BR/><BR/>my marriage means more to me than my kids.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29562711.post-1156631211438397102006-08-26T18:26:00.000-04:002006-08-26T18:26:00.000-04:00566 - that's amazing.

I downgraded from whole to 2% to 1% to Skim. Took a couple of months, but I just kept refilling the milk jug. Silly man. I finally came clean and bought a pint of Whole and poured two glasses. One skim, one whole. He about gagged on the whole milk. Never wants to drink whole milk again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29562711.post-1156616457936360322006-08-26T14:20:00.000-04:002006-08-26T14:20:00.000-04:00nice title for this chapter. got the reference ri...nice title for this chapter. got the reference right away!! :)Nut's momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03627264867678316076noreply@blogger.com
