| How do you save a marriage? | | I have been married for 17 years. we have been on this roller coaster that has some of
the same twist and turns. I'm tired of being on this roller coater marriage! I want
to halp my marriage, but I don't know how to get my husband to hear me. He don't like to help
with chores around the house, and he is harder in one of our boys than the two. I
don't like his parenting skills. I think he thinks children should do as I say not what
I do. My husband and I don't do any thing together any more. When we get home from work
I can't even sit down for a few minutes. I have to get dinner started. He comes home
and starts out with demands he wants done. He some times will sit and tell the boys
what he wants them to do. He will call his friends and make plans to leave. some times
they come and hang out at the house, but usually he will go else where. My husband
has a drinking proublem and drug proublem. I get so sick of him partying as much as he does.
He says there is more to life than watching tv and being on the computer. That is
what my boys and I do most of the time. We don't have time or energy to do nuch else.
I have tried to change the way chores are done and I do... | |
| | Have you tried to save someones marriage? | | Recently, one of my friends confessed that all was not well in their marriage. She felt that her husband was cheating on her. Its something that she realised very soon after marriage, but still decided to believe against it.
Now she has a five year old daughter and is living with her hubby for her daughters sake. Since both of them are no longer getting along with each other, it results in big verbal fights in front of their kids.
I feel that both of them should sit down and talk, try to clear out misunderstandings if any.
Will it save their marriage? | |

| One more update on - I want to save my marriage ideas? | | Hi every one! Thank you so much for all your support over the last few months. I again thank every one that responded to my discussions about my marriage. Just wanted to give every one an update. Although I came home to a different person and things were going very well he has filed for a divorce. It basically came out of no where again. I shouldn't say out of no where because of all that has been going on but I really thought things were better. Things were much better then they had been we were talking and touching, seemed to be getting better everyday. Until he came home from work and said "you will be receiving papers some time next week." He has since bascially moved out. He comes over in the morning before I go to work to stay with our daughter and takes her to grandmas. I pick her up from there as always. He has been taking her every other weekend too. All that being said I must say this - Although I don't want a divorce I can't stay in a relationship with the emotional roller coaster he has put me on. I can't stay with some one that I don't trust and honestly I don't trust him with my emotions any more. So theres my update sorry to dissapoint you but I'm sure you... | |
| | UPDATE on: I want to save my marriage - ideas? | | Here is the original post for those of you who haven't seen it. http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1616148.aspxThings are going to be okay. I went away for the weekend and came home to a different person. I came home to the man I married four years ago. We talked or should I say he talked, I listened. He told me what has been wrong with him lately and why he has been acting so odd. No it wasn't cheating it was more personal then that. When we met we lived in Florida we were good there, things changed when we moved to Pennsylvania and continued to get worse as the months went on. We have been here in PA for two years now. He wants to go back to FL. He says that in order for us to be us again we need to go. He told me this wasn't really an option we are going. I am okay with that because as I told him I will do any thing for him and if he feels this is what is best for our family then its what is best. He thanked me for fighting him so hard. He said that if I hadn't fought him he doesn't know what would have happened to him. He was on a downward spiral and my telling him off telling him I was fed up and my fight was almost gone woke him up to the realty that he might lose me... | |

| | I want to save my marriage - ideas? | | My marriage is on the rocks. We are in marriage counseling now and after only one session I think I am more confused then ever. Let me give you the short of the story. My husband came to me about 6 weeks ago and said he wasn't happy. He said that he wanted a divorce. I told him that wasn't an option and we talked through things. We told each other the issues we were having with each other. We both were working on them. About 5 weeks after the talk our 4 year anniversary was coming up and we talked again. He said the same thing. At first I thought I didn't have a choice and said okay. I'll call my attorney and get things started. The more I thought about it the more I realized "NO" I don't want a divorce I want to work it out. I as did he promised to love the other for better or worse and I am sticking to that. So I called A MARRIAGE counselor instead. He was dead set against it at first and I talked him into going. The result MORE confusion! He says that he doesn't know if he wants to try and work it out. Says that he doesn't see a future with us. I say we are worth fighting for because we were good together at one point.... | |
