I was referencing his post from the other night about how he pretty much thinks porn is the devil.


Yeah, heard about that one. As long as subjects and everyone watching are of legal age, what the hell. There are far worse things in the world than a bit of porn.

However, some folks are so rigid that they break instead of being able to bend. Bites them in the arse every time. Had a friend years back who was super rigid like that. Wife finally got enough of it. One day he left for work and thirty minutes she was backing the Mayflower truck up to the house. Took everything except his clothes, a tv, a chair, one pot, and a spoon.

That was over 15 years ago. Sad part, I don't think he ever really got it.

Sorry OP, I haven't been here long but from the threads that I've seen you are a miserable person. You freaked because your son watched porn and you get pissed that people take vacation days from work.

Not the first time it's happened either. Seriously. I have 2 kids with this bitch. What am I supposed to do? ?

Makes it tough. The right thing is to man up and deal with it. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do to make her quit doing shite like that. She has to make that choice. Too bad males get hammered so damn hard in divorce settlements.

Get the frick out. Settling in life and love for any reason is soul wrenching.

I was lucky enough to run as fast as I could to the best lawyer I could afford. Boy had actually gotten a friend of mine alimony from his ex-wife, which doesn't happen often in this state. I figured that was the one who needed the retainer check. Got there with the money about an hour before my ex came through the door. When she saw me sitting there she knew she was screwed. I still offered her a fair cash settlement since she surrendered full custody of the kids to me. Then I had a new problem in addition to dealing with my own emotions - which was juggling working two hospitals along with my teaching, and now manage a household. It wasn't easy, but we did it and the kids and I got through it.

Truth: you should have tried a little harder, loved a little deeper, listened a little more, and done so a little sooner.

This may be the root of the problem?

So you being happy wouldn't make you a better father? You are actually being selfish to keep up a charade of a relationship. Do you want your kids to think your current example is how they should live in the future?

I lived it for a lot longer than you. My son asked me recently. "Dad, what took you so long to be happy"? "Leaving you mother" was my answer. I don't want him to settle and be stuck. Just my two cents.

I can relate as well. I went through several years of pure hell for them. However, to this day, they know I have their back and they have mine. Auto accident I had a couple of years back that broke a few bones amongst other things, they made damned sure I was taken care for a couple of weeks until I could do for myself.

Then I'd say what you did and went thru to spare their feelings paid off.

I stayed married for my kids for a long time. I wasn't in love with my wife and she wasn't in love with me. Since the divorce me and my children are both happier.

Kids shouldn't be raised in a home with parents that don't love each other. It sets a bad example and will affect their relationships when they get older. That's just my opinion from experience. It may not be the same for everyone.

Yeah, it did. They did eventually get the truth about their mother, although not from me. Her oldest sister ratted her out. The kids and mother have just gotten back on speaking terms within that last couple of years, although it gets a little shaky at times. Since she only flies down a couple of times a year, I try to encourage them to see her and have as pleasant of a visit as possible. But all that said, they're turning out ok and they know that as far as I am concerned the war's over. I am enjoying being more at peace, which it took awhile to learn that it was a journey instead of a destination.

They will see the example that is before them and repeat what you are currently living with.

My son is in a good school, does well with athletics and is sure as hell happy that I'm not married to his mom.
