Re: How infidelity changed my life

MrBrains,

To each their own. You have to live in your reality and if this situation is what you want, then more power to you. You live in a one sided open marriage. I couldn't do it. Remember,...

Re: I am an abuser...

The first step to overcoming a problem is admitting you have one. It takes courage to come to a public place to tell complete strangers you have a problem. Good for you, step 1 complete.

Re: Should I speak to an attorney before I leave?

Goldfinch,
Why are you trying to get spousal support? You are a grown woman I am assuming so you should be looking to support yourself. Spousal support is theft. Not to mention, it doesn't sound...

Re: Tried Everything, Seperation?

Separations are usually a bad idea and just lead to divorce. You can implement some aspects of the 180 for now to see if he comes around. What did you do to him to cause this type of treatment? ...

Flood,
I am sorry you are here. You now are part of a club that you did not want to join. The "normal" you are feeling is normal. You are in shock. Imagine your worst fear just happened right in...

Ah yes, yet ANOTHER victim of false abuse allegations. When are we going to wake up as a society and change these laws which are being abused daily?

Re: Two years and still in limbo

It's rather simple. When he speaks rudely toward you, you stand your ground toward him, for example consider the following dialogue:

Husband: You are such a jerk!

You: Please do not talk to me...

Re: Husband packed his stuff and left me while 3 months pregnant

The editing makes me wonder if the abuse even happened. We all jump on the "he put his hands on you, divorce him now" bandwagon. Let's all slow down and evaluate the facts before jumping to...

Re: Just filed

I would also be bringing in your fellow teachers as character witnesses who can tell the court about how great you are around children and that your wife's claims are completely off base.

Re: Just filed

I understand that you are not okay with a permanent order. You must explain to the judge your job predicament as well. The judge does NOT have to grant a permanent order at that hearing. What...

Re: Just filed

For a temporary order she can put anything on the affidavit that she wants and it will be given. The judge will assume that since she took the time to come to court, fill out the paperwork, and wait...

Re: Seeing somebody who's too fat...?

Either accept her looks or break it off. Physical attraction plays a part in the relationship.

Beauty is always a light switch away :)

Re: Are you born Alpha or Beta?

This is a tough one to answer. It is partly due to nature but alpha traits are mostly learned behaviors. Men naturally lean alpha due to high amounts of testosterone relative to women. Society and...

Re: Just filed

Conrad,
You may be right. I do know the Circuit Court judges here are appointed and have less to lose. The overturn rate on ROs that are appealed here is quite high if there is NO evidence.

Forlorn,
Do you have a way to defend yourself against the restraining order or are you going to be evicted from your home?

You shouldn't lose your job over the restraining order. They are...

Why waste your money on attorneys? Just do your divorce pro se and save a ton of money. Sounds like your STBXW has some serious mental issues. You don't need a lawyer for your D. If you get one...

Re: Snooping while everything is good

Yeah, the "My husband is not my father" and "controlling" reference.

I'll keep my eye out for the story in Coping with Infidelity.

Re: Snooping while everything is good

There is no snooping because in a marriage there is no privacy outside of using the toilet. The two spouses are one flesh, not two separate entities.

You appear to be acting out of anger/elevated emotion. Divorce is a HUGE legal proceeding that requires careful thought and strategy planning. It is literally a war unless you and your spouse...
