How is your son doing now? I am a preschool teacher and just want you to know - this is very common. Have you talked to his teachers about it?... could be, as it is with one little girl in my class, that once he's in the class and busy - he is fine. I do understand how difficult it is for you - when my son was in preschool, they ...
-
It will take some time for you to deal with your hurt - I understand from experience. I also understand your fear to always do what's ''right'' now... although it's good to evaluate yourself and make some changes... you will never be perfect. It took me several years to finally just accept it and not worry if what I do will ''cause'' ...
-
I brought up your past posts as I wasn't familiar with your story - still not sure I am as your posts were hard to follow. Anyway - is this with the mailman? I got from an earilier post that he was wanting to end the affair to make it right with his wife?... but then an even earlier post you'd said the mailman wasn't married?
I will ...

Bless your heart. I could really see your heart in your post and I will keep you in my prayers. Have you said anything of this to your husband? If not - print it and give it to him (at least that's what I would do - I'm better at writing letters than talking face to face).
I would also recommend you and your hubby go to ...

my husband - an auto mechanic - has always worn his band, although I told him I would understand if he didn't but would like him to when he wasn't working. He has never taken it off - said God put us together in marriage - and God would protect that finger! He has for 18+ years.
For myself - until recently I only took it off ...

Our kids actually started last Thursday (13th)...early this year. At first I wasn't ready as the summer really was busy and went fast - but then the day before the sibling fighting started so I was like ''yep...time to go back!''
Oldest DD is a Junior - taking honors classes and college prep...lots of homework already. Today she and 2 ...

Hi... I will certainly pray for your marriage/family. I wish I had some really good ideas/advice for you, but I can only say I truly do understand as I went thru virtually the same thing 5 years ago - I can tell you, there is hope...we survived my husband's emotional affair. I found out thru emails that they kissed and I know how ...
-
Welcome... I have a 16 year old daughter too - and while we do not have these issues, it (or similar) has always been a fear. I wish I had good advice for you. Does your church offer a church camp? My daughter went for the first time last summer and it literally changed her attitude towards everything and everyone.
-
Is the reason you are evicting him because he owes back rent - or other issues as well? Just curious. Sorry if you've explained before - I've been off the forums for a while.
-
It's a well-known ''joke'' with my family that I don't ''do'' snakes. My husband has told neighbors if they see our riding lawnmower running along without a driver - I saw a snake. A few years ago when he was in Iraq I was mowing the field and saw a snake (just a little gardner but still...) I wrote to him about it and ...
-
Aww, bless your heart. I don't think you're neglecting your baby - and I see your heart in loving your students. I'm sure they feel it during the school hours - I obviously don't know your school's routine - is staying after school for extra-curricular activities or one-on-one tutoring or just ''being friends'' time? ...
-
I don't know that ''unloading'' on your husband would be the right thing - by unloading, I mean telling him every detail - that would be too much. Perhaps, right now, he needs to KNOW that you are WANTING the marriage - you may think he knows but have you specifically told him?
My husband had an ''emotional'' affair several years ago ...
-
My sil called Sunday night for prayers for her little nephew - he'd had a fever at Christmas (but was up playing with family) and by the weekend was in the hospital with a bacterial infection and brain swelling.
Baby Dean went to Jesus Monday. He would have been 2 this summer. Please pray for the family.

First, you have been and continue to be in my prayers - how are the boys doing thru all this?
I did not have an affair but my husband had an emotional affair (they kissed - would have gone physical but I found out before he could get the planning worked out...I found condoms in his wallet - I had my tubes tide so I know they were going to be used ...
-
I am assuming since he's recently out of the military that he was on deployment - and while I don't condone his behavior, I do think it has alot to do with it...post traumatic stress. My husband is retired from the Army Nat'l Guard - his first deployment was to Iraq for a year....he came home an entirely different person - he was used to ...
-
and I usually don't see it. However, today I did. The kids and I needed to go into town for some last-minute Christmas shopping, hair cut appointment and lunch with the youth group. I told them several times we needed to leave by 10 so we could get finished and home again before more freezing rain came that was predicted. As
-
I applied for a job as our church's secretary - the current one is leaving after 30 years. I found out yesterday I did not get it....and I'm surprised/ashamed of my reaction. It's beyond disappointment - I'm so very hurt.
The interview was strange from the start - they had my resume but did not refer to it or any previous work ...
-
Your feelings/concern are understandable given what you've been thru....I would have (and have) reacted/suspected the same. My dh had an emotional affair - communicated online and off with her for months. They kissed once, but luckily it didn't go into a full-blown affair (had I not found out about it, it would have I'm sure) - it ...
-
Hi Libra....I will keep you and the baby - and the rest of your family in my prayers. My first pregnancy was complicated too and I had to be on bedrest - it is such a pain! But, I didn't have 2 other little ones to chase around....or not to be able to. I just know if my mil brought me one more craft project to work ...
-
I'm so in!!!! YEAH!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! This is so very exciting...God is sooo good!
I remember your story and have been thinking about you recently. Happy New Year, too!

-
I would covet your prayers - Our church secretary has decided to move on - after 30 years and I have applied for her position. This would be such an answer to prayer - not to mention our financial situation. I spoke with our pastor this morning about a few concerns - mainly the hours need to be flexible because I currently am the ...
-
It's not something I've ever thought about - and I have nothing to compare it to as I've only ever been with just my husband. I agree with the above post....''no''.
-
Boy did this topic bring back memories...my daughters are a little older and, like yours, very different. My oldest is now 15 and my youngest 12. 15 yo is very private - their elementary school has a ''meeting'' with the girls and their moms with the school nurse to introduce the period and changes they will eventually go thru. I ...
-
We're at $2.35 (Indiana). I think the highest it hit was $4.14....one station did go to $4.39 but they didn't have any business and it only lasted a couple hours and they went back down.
-
I haven't heard of any deals - at least not any out of the ordinary commercials that aired even before the economic crisis. The only ''deal'' I'm enjoying right now is the gas prices....a couple months ago we were at $4.14 a gallon and now it's down to $2.35...I feel I can drive to town just to run an erand without feeling guilty. I'm ...
-
I do know what you're going thru...I'm going thru very similar with my mom! About 2 months ago, during a routine blood draw, we discovered she wasn't eating properly nor taking her medicines properly (some she didn't take and others she probably overdosed).
She is in Assisted Living now...a great place, but she does NOT want to be ...
-
Hi Connie...I have been thinking about you (I was guardwife91 previously before the forums reopened). I was a SAHM for many years as well - my husband went thru PTSD after deployment to Iraq and had an emotional affair - I cannot know exactly what you're going thru, but I know that was devastating enough for me and nearly cost us our marriage
-
Hi, TimD, I think I may have posted to you before the forums closed - I was going by guardwife then (now my dh is retired from the guards so I changed it). I know everyone's situation is different but I can relate to yours and especially your wife's.
When my dh returned from a year in Iraq - about 3 month after, he had an emotional ...
-
I think he's using your lack of knowledge to get to you - he doesn't want to get a lawyer (or for you to) so he doesn't have to grant you as much in the divorce that you are probably entitled to. Keep your appointment - and start journaling the conversations you're having with your H. These kind of threats are something to discuss ...
-
I really like and agree with the previous posts - and I understand the idea why a gift may not be a good idea -but.....if you ever decide to go that route....how about a special ring? or a necklace? Not just for Haley but for both girls and perhaps yourself as well. Maybe you could ask your Pastor to do a special blessing on your ...
-
Finally! After slightly more than 2 (looonnnnggg) months of leaving voice mails and getting absolutely no response or return calls from the mortgage company, they finally called me this morning and arranged a repayment plan to get our mortgage current and out of foreclosure. It will be very tight financially for the next 24 months, but ...
-
ok...I just spoke to our VA rep and she has gotten a couple vague answers from the mortgage company...according to one, they have 2 files open on our account (one the workable solution I submitted and 2nd the proposal from the debt management counselor)...along with the note that was dated June 24 that they were offering a 10 month repayment plan -
-
Even tho my husband makes the majority of our income, I handle the finances - it just really stresses him and when he was deployed I had to take over and I just kept that responsibility - and I protect him from that stress. I have really messed this up even tho it totally isn't my fault, but I didn't make the house payment the top priority ...
-
Our home is in foreclosure....we've been struggling financially for almost a year - medical expenses, gas/food increases, poor choices in priorities....the past few months we have gotten back on track with everything except the mortgage....
I have been in contact with them and was trying to work out a payment plan but seemed to get the ...
-
I did have one, but not within 3 years ago - more like, 12, so if you want to disregard my post, it's ok.
Did the hospital say why they do not allow them? It may be because of the type of c-section you had - sometimes in emergencies, the incision they use is vertical rather than horizontal at the bikini line? My first was a ...
-
I have prayed - and I'm sorry for what you're going thru. I know the torment - my husband had an emotional affair a few years ago and it nearly destroyed us.
One thing I would really recommend, if you can convince your wife, is to go to one of Family Life's Weekends to Remember. You can get info and where they'll be in your area
-
Or pictures? Have you discussed this with your husband - maybe he has an idea how to bring it up. I don't think I'd make it a ''sit down kids, there's something I need to tell you'' kind of discussion - but if you're looking at a photo album, it'll spark their curiosity and you could ease into it.
-
It doesn't matter how old a child is - a parent never should stop caring and being involved in their life.
And, I know many who go to church but have not accepted Christ as their savior - thus, deeming them a Christian.
OP - As a parent, myself, I understand your concerns for your daughter - My oldest is just 15 and not yet dating ...
-
My husband and I went to a WTR a year ago and really enjoyed it. He had an emotional affair a couple years before and there were still some unresolved issues that the conference helped us talk out. Although when I signed us up, he agreed but I think he was also hesitant - thinking it was going to be too ''intense'' or something...I ...
