I have never been divorced but I have thought about it. I have been married for 9 years now and it of course was good at the beginning but since we have kids it has gone down. She is always yelling at me telling me what to do and when to do it and tells me how to raise the kids and what to do and not do when it comes to them. We fight and argue all the time about the kids. My mother-in-law is living with us now and that is not helping out one bit. She thinks she is the 3rd parent and that the kids should listen to her and not me. My wife also thinks that so when I tell the kids to do something and she tells them to do something else they have to listen to her. I want to stay in the marriage for the kids and my wife to but it is very hard on a daily basis.

Hi Marriedman
gosh I feel really bad for u, to live each day like you do
must b so hard. Do u really love your wife? I mean can
you see yourself without her as a wife ? I always felt that
staying together just for the children isn't fair to anyone of you.
You should b happy in your marrage, the yelling and everyone
stepping on your toes is terrible . Sounds like total disrespect,

Hello, yes I am divorced.I take half the blame. I was never meant to be married to my ex-husband. Wish I would have know that sooner than waste some of the best years of my life with someone who didn't really love me.It's not his fault he didn't share the same feelings but it is his fault he lied. He knew I was with someone else but it was an ongoing fight between my ex-husband and the man I was with before him.Oh well, I just hope I won't make that same mistake.

yes when your married to the wrong person it is years wasted I remember in all my marriages I was the one who always tried to fix things to make it better sure is hard to fix things when others do not give a little to help out I am happy to be single again although it gets kind of lonely not having no one it is better than being with some one who is not right for you makes you watch out more carefully.

I am divorced and have been for a loooooooong time. And it still amazes me that my ex would beep his horn or wave like crazy everytime he saw me. It was such a long time ago. And, no, I never felt quilty, he was such a jealous man, and control freak that I was relieved to have my life back.
However, he has since deceased (at a very young age)...Now, I feel bad...lol

It's a relationship between two people, if things don't work out, that's because they don't work TOGETHER. Unless one of the individuals cheated or did something really messed up, then it's probably mostly their fault. Everything usually has more to it though.

I have never been divorced, and I don't intend to get a divorce either. My parents are divorced, and my husband has been divorced a couple of times.

I am on my second marriage, my ex has already married and gotten divorced (his 3rd divorce) he had mental health problems and refuses to take medication -- he decided that just before we split up. He feels the world should adjust to him, he should not take medication to help him cope with the world.
His psychiatrist called him Peter Pan, said he was very self-centered and would never grow up.
Ah..I married him in the first place - so I guess I take some of the blame...but the rest of it..I will give to him.
BTW My son ( my ex was his father) called my current hubby on Father's Day to tell him Happy Father's Day and did not call his biological father.
Need I say more?
