ok so some of you know about my marraige from posts in the past, well i finally told my hubby yesterday that i want a divorce and it was quite the day..anger, yelling, swearing then im sorry i will do whatever it takes...blah blah blah...i know i am at the point in my life where i want to start over but here is my problem..i have such a soft heart and have a very hard time with hurting anyone even if it means that i will be unhappy..i have come to terms with the fact that i am a caretaker. i have spent so many years making everyone els happy and staying in a marraige because of everyone els...i hope i can stay strong and not cave...i feel like it is hopeless!!!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I feel for you. I'm sort of in the same situation. I don't know if your a christian or not but my faith has gotten me through alot. I'm not for divorce but sometimes it's the only way when there's not change on both sides. Good luck. I'll be praying for you.

Oh honey, I am sorry to here you are having a tough time. I don't know the situation between you and your husband to offer any specific advice. I can relate though because I am in a bad marriage myself. Some days I feel as if the world is caving in on me. Be strong, true to yourself and heart. If you believe in a higher being than by all means turn to HIM. He would never give us anything more than we can handle. ((((HUGS))))

((((((HUGS)))))))
Keep in mind, if you can't be happy with yourself and love yourself, you won't be able to make others truly happy, and have others love you truly.
Also, if their Mom is unhappy, then it's going to affect the kids in one way or another.
You also have a right to be happy.
Tying marriage counseling is an option, if you are willing. That may enable both of you to see what the problems are, and either give you tools to correct them, or give you the final sprigboard to go your respective ways. If your husband makes you feel that maybe you should stay, then making that a condition might help, not that you'll stay, but make counseling a condition for you two to try to see if you can work things out. If your husband sees through counseling that it won't, then for one, you will know that you gave it a try, and for two, your husband will know that it won't work, and it's better for both of you, and your children to start differnt lives.

((((((((HUGS)))))))) I hope both you and your husband can make the happiness the respective you deserve.
