You are a mother "now". How are the booze and drug habits? Are you full over them? And the partying and sex addiction?

You see, I'm a little confused. According to him, you are a drug addicted partying *****, but you want to come across as a devout mormon. I wonder what the truth is, that's all.

And the answer to these qestions are obviously none of my business, OR the friends. Tell your husband that his pal needs to respect you or they're not pals any more. Simple.

Honestly? If I had your husband for a husband, who won't even believe in his wife, who'd just up and join the army without discussing it with his WIFE, this early in your marriage? I'd be filing divorce papers.

He joined the army without discussing it with you when he has a new baby?

He doesn't want to be with you and doesn't have the gall to tell you. Case closed.

Love isn't enough to keep a marriage intact. At least not one-sided love.

I would leave. If you do decide to leave....or let him go, I guess...he is gone already, in training, right? I can further explain to you how to get the $$ and support you are entitled to by contacting his chain of command. The Army doesnt play around with soldiers not supporting their families... they actually pay the married ones extra to do it with. He should be giving you EVERY DIME of the BAH (basic housing allowance)... and if he is not or was not, he can get into big trouble. His pay is his. His BAH is YOURS

If you are considering leaving, might I suggest you talk to a legal office on his post before you go making plans?? You don't get his BAH, you get what is known as BAH II, which is a percentage and depends on how many children you have during the seperation and until a court order is placed. You can call and give them his rank and that it would be you with one child and they will give you a figure of how much it would be. Probably not a whole lot.

Second, you have to have seperation papers to go to his chain of command. You can't just walk in and tell them he owes you, you have to have the papers to back it up. He's at training, so I am assuming you aren't with him now?? You can always fax and phone, but you have to have that first. It is common for the leaders to have them set up a different account to receive all their pay and give you only what they have to. The chain of commands job at that point will be to take care of him, not you.

Think everything over carefully and if you ultimately decide with seperation or divorce, call legal and gets the steps you need to take to get what you need. Good luck honey and yeah, he totally screwed the pooch with his actions.

You are gonna have to grow some thicker skin honey. There is always going to be someone out there that comments on something you do or say, and to take something so personally will seriously drive you nuts. His friend, yeah he is trouble and you should talk to your H about why he feels the need to talk about you and lie. Are your H's parents believing any of what he says or are they telling him what is actually happening??
