ok, I have a wife who is mostly mean to me. I have a girlfriend who is nice to me, but she is very secretive. I think maybe she is messing up her life, and her daughter's too. I want to help them. Would help too. No promise of how much or in what ways yet. Just know there is SOME serious help there for them. All I need is some total honesty to know what we are dealing with. Can't help if I don't have good info. I owe her a favor and I love her, thats why.

If you love your girlfriend more that you love your wife, and add to that your telling us here that your wife is so mean to you, I guess you need to sort things out... If you think you aren't happy with your married life anymore, then better get a divorce from your wife and go with your girlfriend. you need to think things over, and decide where would you be at peace... and i don't think it's a good idea getting two women at a time... select one and stick with them... that could make things simpler for everybody involved. Godbless!

If your wife is mean to you and you don't love her anymore , then you should divorce her and if you still do love her, then quit cheating on her! here you are worried about helping your girlfriend when your own life has problems of its own, I don't mean to sound harsh, but that's just the reality of it- cheating is horrible!

Wait, are you or are you not MARRIED? If so, and you both are obviously unhappy, then do yourselves a HUGE favor and get a divorce. You will never find the person you are intended to share your life and heart with as long as you are tied to someone else! Trust me, (you've read my story!) Don't waste EACH OTHERS time. You owe it to both of yourselves to cut your losses and get on with it in other directions. If she is "mean to you most of the time" that is likely her way also of sending the message that she is not happy in the relationship and does not want to be with you. Look at the big picture and be honest to one anthoer. Only then will you be free to pursue what your heart leads you to....On that note also be AWARE of how this other woman treats you! DON"T BE A SUCKER!

Firstly most men say their wives are mean to them - particularly when they have a girlfriend as well. It comes as a close second to "my wife doesn't understand me" in the book of often used excuses for cheating husbands. Secondly your girlfriend may well be messing up her life but being involved with a married man certainly won't help her situation. If you really want to help her then leave her alone or alternatively have the guts to make a choice and leave your wife. That way in the long term at least you'll make one of them happy.

you need to look into your own life and see whats wrong there first before tring to fix someone elses life. your married and regardless of her been mean to you, you married her and have a life together. if its not what you want, divorce her and then help your "girlfriend" and her daughter.

you need to sort out what it is from life that you want. There are few things lower in life than a man who cheats on his wife. Why not talk to her ? Get out of the marriage before you have a girl friend, then she can move on with her life as well as you?

this is the way i feel. your cheating on your wife. obviously either the magic of that relationship is over or you need to look inside yourself and see why are you cheating? if you feel as if this relationship is over then you owe it to that woman to be fair and to let her loose. she deserves someone to care for her and not cheat on her. as for the other woman. i really don't know what to say about that. your first priority is your wife in my eyes. i dont feel as if you "owe" her anything, the only person you "owe" anything to is your wife. she is the woman you "vowed" to be with. let her figure out all of that on her own and you take care of the situation with your wife and if at the end of the day, your no longer with your wife, then you worry about her. i really cant give you any advice on the "other woman".

It's nice that you want to help, but sometimes people don't want to BE helped. Sometimes I feel that way. In certain circumstances I prefer to figure things out and deal with things on my own. This doesn't mean that I don't appreciate the concern of those in my life. I do. There are just times when a person needs to do things on their own. Sometimes (certainly not always) receiving help undermines our ability to take care of ourselves. Sometimes there is a fine line between "helping" and "enabling". My advice... Offer your help. Offer to be there if needed, but don not insist on it. Do not nag or pester. Good luck in your relationships.

A question... I skimmed over some of your discussions and a couple of the responses to this discussion (i have a short attention span). From what I read, I concluded (possibly in error), that you are in an open marriage. After reading a few opening lines to a couple of discussions it made me wonder. Was I correct, or are you simply cheating on your wife? Is she aware of your girlfriend. Are your statements even true? Or are you simply saying these things to get a rise out of mylotters?
