I have been with my boyfriend for 8 years we recently got married in Feb of this year. My husband has a 13 year old son from a previous marriage.In December of last year his ex wife got messed up on drugs and his son lived with us from December until September full time and she was still receiving child support during this time. We don’t have the money to hire a lawyer but she is spending the money on herself rather than my step-son.My step-son comes over daily since september and asks us for money to do stuff with. his mother lives with a man that pays all the bills and she recieves food stamps for 3 kids which two of them she doesn’t have custody of because their dad take over her rights when she was on drugs.$4 hundred dollars a month in food stamp which she sells.I don’t want to keep my step son from his mother its just i’m tired of having to support her.

My husband’s ex-wife is a narcisstic sociopath.
Her favorite drug of choice is court. In the 4 years I have known him, she has filed 62 motions, complaints, and warrants against him in 5 different counties. She Judge shops, much like a pill addict pharmacy shops.
Sometimes she loses, most of the time she wins, because 1) she is female, and GA is not in any way a father’s rights state, and 2) she is very wealthy and can afford court at her whim.

She cries and lies to the court, and her own children attempting to alienate them from their father.
Her husband follows and verbally attacks my husband at the kids school and sporting events regularly, as does her alcoholic father.

We are not wealthy by any means. My husband works 2 jobs, one for us, one to pay ex-wife 50% of every dime he makes for child support.

I don’t have the time or the space to tell you all the spiteful, vindictive, downright evil things this woman has done to my husband.
BTW – SHE divorced him, filed in 2003, final in 2004.
She married him because he was a lawyer – not for love, she wanted his money and status.
When they were married, she was so verbally abusive that he became clinically depressed and had to take Zoloft. He became addicted to gambling as an outlet for his frustration, and lost several thousand dollars. He was no longer useful to her, so she divorced him.
She moved from the West coast to the East, and he moved here to be with his children. She is a flight attendant, so my husband raised them practically alone since birth.
His moving here enraged her to the point that she is trying everything she can to get him out of the boy’s lives – to the point of forbidding them to visit (we live 3 miles from her), telling them he doesn’t pay child support (he pays her $1,000 a month), and filing child abandonment charges against him (the Prosecutor refused to charge my husband; she knew ex-w was lying) to harassing his employer and getting him fired, getting him behind in child support, and filing Contempt charges and having him put in jail several times (filing in different counties).

I am at my wits end!
My husband, like I said, works 2 jobs – sometimes I don’t see him for several days – just to pay child support. When I do see him, he’s exhausted, cranky, and stressed out because of her putting the kids up to calling and spewing her lies, or he got a nasty letter from her or her lawyer, or he has to prepare for yet another court hearing (FIVE in 2010).

This is why most second marriages fail!
My husband is a wonderful person, and an amazing father. He certainly does not deserve any of the childish, hateful, cruel treatment of this woman he once loved. It wasn’t until after the children were born that he realized that she only loved herself, she isn’t capable of loving anyone else.

Seriously, I cannot take this anymore! I’m ready to divorce him because the nonsense drama goes on and on and will not stop!

How does a sociopath stop targeting one particular person?
(She is remarried to a wealthy man and lives in a gated country club. She SHOULD be happy!)

Is there a certain reverse psychology I need to know about.
It is not as simple as “get away from her”. I can’t do that. She is the mother of my husband’s children – whom he dearly loves, and she knows it. She uses it against him in every way.

How can I fight back? I have no money, so I can’t do it in court.
How can I get her to back off and leave my husband alone??
HELP!!!!!

About 5 years ago I met the man of my dreams 1 year later we married. He has 3 children and I have 2. One year after we married his youngest daughter decided that she wnted to live with us, everything was good for abou two months then i caught her smoking,doing drugs,drinking and having sex.. Now mind you that she was only 13 at the time. When I told my husband what was going on he asked her about it and she told him that I am a liar and I never caught her doing those things. And of course she is daddys little girl so he sided with her and told me that I need to quit attacking her with these accusations. I found her diary and showed it to him and in it she admits doing all these things and it also said how she was gonna make it miserable for me and my children so I would leave. And all he had to say was that she is only saying these things to make her feel cool in front of her friends. Now my husband is not a stupid man until it comes to her.
I asked him if she could start helping out a little around the house and maybe do dishes once a week and his response was that she is too young for responsibilities. My children who are 6 & 8 have chores. I dont think that I am asking to much for to do dishes.
Now she is about to be 16 and for the last 3 years I have had no say so in anything at all. She doesnt even have to tell me that she is leaving the house or where she is going. She doesnt even have to speak to me in my own home. And if I do try to ask her she tells me that I am only her dads wife. But I am the one who cooks, cleans,takes them to all the drs. appts.,buys her stuff but I am no one when it concerns what she is doing. but, that is bull because when she ends up pregnant or with an STD I am the one stuck taking care of it. I have tried to be the friend and I have also tried ignoring what she is doing but I can not take it anymore and I do not know what to do. If I tell her father that I want her move back with her mother he has already stated that he is not going to pick between me and his daughter. Where do I go from here?

I have a situation where my ex-husband who is newly remarried, and chose to adopt his new wife’s children, has petitioned to increase visitation with my daughter 60/40 in his favor because of his “new family”. He is away from their home 50% of the year (6 months of twelve), and this would put her in their home quite often while he is away. I am a fit, and consistant parent with no alcohol, drug or criminal history, employed full time, and up until this point the custodial agreement has been written 60/40 in my favor. Does her step mother have “rights”? or am I dealing with “control” issues.

I was with my ex-wife for 10 years. I was in love with her, but we had a rough relationship. The entire time we were together I was lying to her about my feelings toward other men. She always knew I was bi, but deep down I suspected I was gay. She tried to get me to open up about my sexuality but I always resisted. It was a huge struggle for years and led to drug abuse and addictive behavior on my part.

After 7 years of marriage I started meeting other men online and sneaking around behind her back. I didn’t hide my tracks very well and she found out everything. She left me and filed for divorce. At the time I had convinced myself that I was gay and that this was the right thing for me. I told her and my family that I was gay. I admit I treated her badly, both before and after she left me. For that reason she refuses to talk to me anymore. It has been 2 and a half years.

Now I have come to the realization, after having relationships with men, that I am not gay — I am bi, just like I always thought. Maybe I am more attracted to men (mostly gay), but nobody compares to my wife. I miss her and the life we had, every day. I am so lonely and so angry at myself for messing that up. Everyone I meet I compare to her, and nobody compares. I know now what a great gift I had and I threw it away. I don’t even have her as a friend anymore, and she was once my best friend. Her family, who I was once a part of, now hates me. The worst part is, she is still very close with my mom and other relatives, they all love her and are angry at me for what I did. So even though I don’t talk to her, I still hear about what’s going on in her life, how well she is doing, and it hurts.

I have attempted to get her back, but she wants no part of it.

How can I force myself to get over her and move on?
How can I stop myself from comparing everyone (men and women) to her?
How can I get over the feeling that I have wrecked my life for good and there is nothing left for me anymore but loneliness?

sorry for the long post, thanks for reading and giving me your opinions.

We are best friends who for the first 28 years held hands, kissed, called each other just to say I love you, held each other and talked about our fears, hopes, dreams. Then she stopped everything, first she no longer wanted oral sex from me then told me to just hurry up and finish with no passion or intimacy involved. Along with this our oldest has just completed back to back deployments to the middle east as a combat infantryman in the Army where he had way too many close calls with his life. Our youngest had an awful drug problem where he went from a star athlete to a drug addict being held in jail and charged with murder. I have always tried to be the best husband any woman would want and a good father. I remember all special occasions, send flowers, leave love notes, do chores around the house regularly. Choose my wife over sports everytime. My family always comes first. I have never wanted to cheat and never gave my wife to worry. I am very affectionate; hugs, kisses, holding hands, body massages, scratching her back and just trying to be a loving understanding, caring husband. I always volunteered to help out at school and any other events my family were involved in. We are not rich but now that both of our children are out of the house we are doing fairly well financially. I recently retired and we had always planned on traveling together. However with us in our late forties my wife is not interested in anything and has no time for me. I must initiate all kissing, holding hands or hugs yet when I do she just stands and makes me feel like I am kissing, holding a cold dead fish. She has put on alot of weight and constantly complains about it. I have always told her that she is beautiful, she is my queen, my love. I tell her how sexy she is to me and how much I am attracted to her. Nothing gets through to her. She wants to sell our house and move, I think it would be good to get away from our small gossipy town but with the economy so bad selling a house is not so easy. I do not know what to do since she will not go to counseling, she hates to talk to people especially about something personal. She is not close to her side of the family it has always been she and I that talked and discussed problems. Now it is like I have an acquaintance sharing my house with me. In the last four months we have had sex twice and none in the last three months. Even then it was her saying just pull my pants down and hurry up and get it done. No soft special touches, no kissing, no loving words. I was sick to my stomach afterward with fear that our marriage was over. I am a good looking forty something man with two grown children and it appears a wife that has no interest, no affection, no love for me anymore. I do not want to stay this way for ten more years and then be old and alone. I just want my best friend, my lover, my wife back to ride our horses, travel go out to eat, see a movie, joke, have special secrets that are just our own, I want to make passionate love with my wife where we both enjoy the experience. I miss my friend/wife what can I do, what should I do. I have always wondered when someone knows it is time to quit the marriage, time to get a divorce. I just never thought I would be asking myself the question on whether it is time for divorce.

Some people think jealousy and possessiveness are at the root of my visceral reaction to my girlfriend / fiance / wife being massaged by a male massage therapist (masseur). I disagree. I think part of the sanctity of marriage is that the body is proprietary and confidential between a husband and wife. In this crazy world, shouldn’t we fight for at least that much?

I put my feelings on this matter under quite a microscope. Really, I did. As someone with a research degree in Psychology, I did the requisite soul searching. As a social philosopher, I examined the Brave New World in which we live. You know — the one beginning to resemble the vision of Aldous Huxley more by the day, where babies are grown in mechanical incubators rather than in uterus and where the government controls its population through world consensus textbooks and some pleasure drug called “Soma.” There is no coupling in this world — no marriage. This is a world where public service announcements inform the citizenry that “promiscuity is your duty.” The instinctual foundations of human nature have for all intents and purposes been domesticated — if not anilhilated — by this antiseptic civilization that could almost pass for a sequel to any one of the four major Invasion of the Body Snatchers flicks.

I feel at this moment much like I am living in such a world.

Enough with the pseudo-literary foreshadowing …

My fiance said I wouldn’t find any measure of validation — and not much more sympathy — for feeling distressed by her 17-year relationship with her male massage therapist. She was right.

I don’t know what it is exactly, but I guess when you get down to the heart of the matter, I just believe I am entitled to exclusive access to my fiance’s body. This is what I feel I will be entitled to as her husband, and naturally she is entitled to the same exclusivity where my body is concerned. Her body is proprietary and confidential. In a world in which control of anything is hard to come by — and when things are constantly changing and our position constantly being challenged — a spouse is supposed to be that one person we can count on. Do I feel I own her? Hell no! But is it too much to ask that I be allowed to feel that she and I belong to one another and one another only? This is part of what I think makes marriage both sacred and delightful. Marrying the right woman should bring me both love and peace, and while I know there is love here, peace is a hard thing to come by when I have to pop a Xanax when I know she is being serviced by another man.

It’s not so much that I am distrustful and fearful that my fiance’s quasi-professional relationship with her handsome male massage therapist will morph into something more intimate. He’s been kneading her flesh for some 17 years now — all as a married man until recently — and there’s never been a sexual aspect to this relationship. But I am the kind of guy who doesn’t like to get into that murky business of finding the line between clinical and sensual touch — sensual and sexual. At least half the people I have talked to want to bully me into pathologizing my own feelings, which I refuse to do. I believe my feelings on this subject is one thing that makes me a better lover and all-around significant other, and this aspect of my personality cannot be surgically resected from me without causing serious damage to “normal adjacent tissue.” And my feelings are this: touch is touch. And if my female significant other is to derive any sort of pleasure (or relief) from touch and from knowledge of her body, than it should not come from another man.

When I touch her body in any way — when I hold her hand or when I slide my palms up and down her sides as part of the 2-3 hour massages I give her every night — I feel something electric. I maintain an erection throughout the whole thing. I am sensitive that way and she benefits from my having that kind of tactile compass. So I feel I am being cheated or robbed — that a man is stealing the jewel of my soul — when he touches her. I feel violated whenever she derives some kind of pleasure at someone else’s hands. Touch is communication. Touch is a way of knowing the person you’re touching. Something passes between two people who are in these forms of contact. Touch is an important part of foreplay. You just can’t convince me that over the course of these 1-4 hour massage therapy sessions with this male massage therapist — that the sustainment of touch and the menagerie of tactile sensations both tenderly caressing and forcefully pressing — doesn’t hit some high notes in her every now and then. By what authority incidentally was it determined what is acceptable in a professional massage? I wasn’t consulted on this. I know the breasts and buttocks remain off-limits but who decided that no other part of the body can be an erogenous zone? For me, the area around the base of the neck and especially in front of the body, is very
To answer some of your comments:
1. I researched a same-sex therapist. She would have none of it.
2. Happy ending after all. I massage her 1-2 hours every night, and since then she has not seemed to need this guy. I think she realizes it would bother me too much for her to enjoy the massage.

I have a 14 year old son and a 12 year old daughter from a previous relationship. We ended our relationship shortly after the birth of our second child and soon then after I met and married my current husband and have been married to him for the past 11 years. My ex was not actively involved in the childrens life for the first few years. And I had to constantly pursue him so that he spend sometime with them. In 2000 I found out that he had a heroin problem and limited the time he saw them of which was very little because he never came around. as of recently past six years maybe he has been slowly stablelizing himself and married someone himself although she did enforce his visitation of them from time to time during past couple of years he has dissappeared on both me and his wife. But all in all he has been a stable dad for the past 3 years. We have had a freindly relationship between all involved parties as well and I have made it a point to involve him as much as possible in his childrens lifes. As of recently he has been demanding without consideration of how it will disruppt my household and home, (I do have a child with my current marriage, which these two children are a very important part of.) additional time with his children. When I informed him that I could not just say yes take them without seeing what I can do as far as who is going to watch over my younger child during the time that their older brother watches them, he proceeded to call DYFYS (Division of youth and family services) on me making tons of absurd not founded allegations on me. May I add he did these anonymusly however admitted it to my son when he questioned him on it. The only reason he gave to my son for calling Dyfis was that he was tired of me being the only one who has a say in their lifes. The children are angry with him for what he did and are not ready to talk to him although I everyday tell them they should, it has now been three weeks since the allegations where made by him and he has not even as called his kids. He is requesting joint custody in court and is demanding unreasonable times he is requesting he gets them tuesdays and thursday over night during the school year with e/o weekend starting from Friday to Monday. And during school vacation he wants them every other week. I am not against my children spending time with their father in fact I have always encouraged it, but I feel what he is requesting is not reasonable and he doesnt see how for the past 12 years I have build a life and family with them and my younger child and this will cause a huge detremental impact to all my children not just his. I am afraid of what a judge would say because for the latter years he has been a responsible father except for the fact that he never paid me child support. I dont want to keep kids from him I just want to have a stable home where I do not have to be afraid that he will take me to court at a whim just simply because he wants more time with them. Any suggestions can anyone help me.

I am 29 and have dated my share of losers. I have recently had two marriage proposals but am uncertain on my decision. Neither one of the guys seem like the perfect one. However, I do not have any family( no brothers or sisters and my Grandparents and Mom died to cancer when I was 25) I don’t want to be too picky for my own good because lets face it no one is perfect or 100% a perfect match.
The two guys that proposed each have their problems. One is 29 and is easy going and extremely sweet. We have dated for about a year now. He relocated and bought a house I liked and is very generous with me. He never yells at me and is a gentle person. The downfall is he has a dog that barks all day long and has bit me ( even after dog training) a mother that calls 50 times a day and tries to run his life even though he’s 29 , lives on his own, and pays all his own bills. He doesn’t talk much or have a backbone. He is not extremely affectionate and doesn’t take an interest in health and working out. He already has diabetes,slightly overweight, asthma and high blood pressure. His Mom is an alcoholic and pushes liquor on him and because he doesn’t have a backbone he will drink even though he knows he shouldn’t be. He doesn’t do yard work or much of anything around the house. On top of this I really want to be a stay at home Mom and just found out he has no sperm. He has never got a job on his own and has worked for his Dad for 11 years with no paid vacation or a retirement which does concern me.
The other guy I dated for three years. He is financially stable and affectionate. The problem with him is I question if he has too much baggage which could be a problem for the future. He is 12 years older than me and has a 19 yr old daughter that lives with him. She steals my clothes, etc which can be very annoying. He also has an 11 yr old boy that stays every other weekend. He has been married twice.. the first wife died. He was a meth addict and alcoholic for 10 years but has been clean for three years. I have never done drugs and do not understand the drug addiction. He also smokes which I find disgusting. However, he is motivated, ambitious and high energy which I really like. On top of his business he owns he is also selling legally medical marijuana at his home and has his daughter helping him which I have a problem with. He feels because it’s legal there is no issue.
Do either one of these guys sound like potential or do both of them sound like Schmucks?

I am in need of some help from ladies and gents! I am in my early 20s, and recently took a new job where I found myself instantly attracted to my boss who is in his late 30s. He has always been kind of flirty, which makes things harder, and nothing was more disappointing then learning he was married with kids. I let go of the idea right away.

One night when everyone went to a loud bar for after work drinks, he admitted to me (slightly inebriated) that he and his wife had been having problems for years now. He wasn’t wearing his ring and neither did she anymore. This kind of intoxicated me, but I still dropped the idea. After all, he is MARRIED and about 15 years older then me.

Just recently, we had been kind of flirty again. His wife drives me crazy. She calls the office 14 times a day demanding to speak to him and fighting with him. We have this inner-office instant messaging system and him and I constantly talk on it. I have felt very close with him because we are so much alike, and even tho he is my boss, I can tell him anything and everything about me and he hasn’t been judgmental or held it against my work.

We went out one night for drinks and I got very drunk, and on the car ride home I confessed to him that I has the hots for him since day one, and that I fantasize about him. We made out, did a little heavy petting and then I went home. The next day he had asked if I had regrets and I didn’t. We have been dirty talking, extra flirty, and he even told me how he and his wife haven’t had sex in 7 months (which I feel bad. I am a firm believer that men run on sex, and as long as they work hard, they deserve as much as they want. If the dude is unemployed bum who plays video games, no sex. haha). So, I feel bad and I want to be able to give him all that stuff he is missing out on. I like him alot, but when I think about it, we are in different stages of our lives and if he were single I don’t think I would date him. We have agreed to be friends with benefits, and neither of us has done something like this before. He told me he is slightly worried my feelings will get hurt, which they will, but I do really want that side action from him.

So my question is…. how DO I keep myself emotionally unattached? Especially when he seems to actually like me as well.

Read this article and thought, wow… wonder if they (being you Christians) ever thought like this too?

Remove Him from this Land
by Muhammad Alshareef

In the book, Muslim Judges of Andalus, Abu Al-Hasan Ibn Abdullaah Al-Maaliqee recounts a story about a great scholar of our Ummah: Muhammad ibn At-Tayyib Abu Bakr Al-Baaqillaanee (d. 1013). Let’s spend a moment in his sandals, so that we may feel the power that Islam had in the hearts of those Muslims.

Here is a passage from when the Khalifah of the Muslims sent Abu Bakr Al-Baaqillaanee to the Roman King. Ibn Hayyaan says:

The transgressor (the King of the Romans) invited Abu Bakr Al-Baaqillaanee to a Christian banquet, and on the appointed day, Abu Bakr Al-Baaqillaanee arrived. The hall was lush with Christian noblemen, the walls and tables dazzled in decorations. At that moment, the King beckoned Al-Baaqillaanee near, sitting him a step down from his throne and complimenting him with flattering questions. All around the King sat noblemen and those most nearest to his counsel.

Then the Batrik (the High Priest) entered the banquet hall with his entire splendor; the final guest, the chief of their religion. Swarming him was an assembly of lower priests; each reciting the Injeel (Bible) and carrying lanterns of incense, all of them dressed in their most finely hemmed

garments. When the Batrik found himself in the center of the hall, the King stood glorifying the Batrik. He bowed his head and rubbed both hands on the Batrik’s shoulders. Then to his immediate right, the King sat the Batrik down on a throne marvelous in its own right.

After the moment had passed and the crowd had focused on the stage in that castle banquet hall, the King turned to Al-Baaqillaanee and said with a sniff, “O Faqeeh! The Batrik is the chief of our religion, and the guardian of the flock.”

Al-Baaqillaanee turned to the Batrik with the warmest smile and the gentlest of words. He asked the sweetest and most loving questions, then Al-Baaqillaanee said something to the effect of, “So Batrik…how are the kids and wife?”

Remember, the popes would practice celibacy. At this question, the hall fell silent. Blasphemy! The King was shocked. The Batrik was outraged. Brows cringed, decorations dimmed, disgusted faces shaped on all.

Then Abu Bakr Al-Baaqillaanee said, “O people, listen to me. You dislike that this mere mortal could have a wife and children ascribed to him, and you deny any allegation to the contrary. Yet, when it comes to your Lord, Glorious and most High, you do not feel the same disgust; you attribute to Allah both the wife and child that you would never allow your Batrik to be associated with. Suddatan lihaadha ar-ra’y! (Perished be your claim! How clearly wrong it is!)”

These words fell in the Christians hands and they had no answer. Fear and nervousness shook their hearts. Quickly the King turned to the Batrik and whispered in his ear, “What shall we do?”

He replied, “Treat this man honorably, complete the dinner, then expel this Iraqi trouble maker from your land; today if you can. Otherwise, you shall not be safe from his mischief.”

The King did as he was advised. Al-Baaqillaanee was sent back to Iraq, back to the Khalifah, with gifts and the release of many Muslim prisoners.

This is a true story that took place in the year 1002 CE. May Allah handsomely reward those that preserved it for us.

Seriously I was hoping for INTELLIGENT answers…
if u don’t wanna read, fine! your own laziness and take your business elsewhere please, I’d like serious people to answer ONLY!!!… ah….
This takes less than 5 minutes to read, what do u want? And I have the question clearly posted up there (can you read? try reading carefully)
Thank you clockwork_faerie, probably the closest to an answer I was looking for! (good to know there are some intelligent people out there…) sorta anyway
Kindomchild07, I am asking regarding the idea that preists (and all the other postitions) and nuns are not allowed to have a family. It’s unnatural and yet you feel like it’s okay that you give God a kid?! WHY???

WHY??? the question is WHY people!? Can someone please answer me!
angeltress, again try to understand what i am asking…
I know quite well the miracle of Jesus (Isa PBUH)’s birth and honestly I believe Muslims have more respect for Mary (Maryum AS) and Jesus (Isa PBUH) than you do…

again angeltress, I am asking regarding the idea that preists (and all the other postitions) and nuns are not allowed to have a family. It’s unnatural and yet you feel like it’s okay that you give God a son?! WHY???

WHY??? the question is WHY people!? Can someone please answer me!
See, you said they can since Peter did… but why don’t they? Why has society (which the story makes clear) disapproved that a high priest (and others) cannot have a family. And therefore inflicting serious damages in the man’s nature (and possibly the reason now that there’s so many “accidents” happening in the church). And besides why isn’t there ever a married nun? kids, husband??? And yet you decide God should have a son???

The story SHOWS the wisdom of Al-Baaqillaanee and his logic. He didn’t mean it as an insult (which they took), rather he made it a clear point which they themselves couldn’t address!!! And because they knew he was correct and that he had a good point that could show the other people their weak and fabricated religion the decided to expel him and to make sure that it wasn’t a show of power or hatred they sent gifts back with the knowledgeable one… I’m sorry you and others could only see this point and fail to recognize the main point of the story!!!!

Years ago, I saw this discovery channel series that was amazing. The show showed you, through actors who acted out the situations, what happens to your body in certain situations. One was a man who was going on a diet and dropped lots of water weight at first. Then, after starving himself, he went on a binge and ordered a large pizza. Another one was about a man who had Salmonella poisoning after his wife didn’t cook a chicken thoroughly. Another one was about a woman who was allergic to bee stings. The last one I remember was about teenagers who were experimenting with sex. Please help me figure out what show this is!!

My wife is the most beautiful woman in the world. I love her dearly and would be completely lost without her. We’ve been together for nearly ten years and I can’t imagine my life without her. The problem I have is with her family. They all have serious personal issues that they won’t do anything about.

Her mother suffers from depression or has bi-polar or something, but refuses to acknowledge she has a problem and therefore won’t seek help. She has tried to commit suicide before, but refuses to go to any couselling, get help or take medication. The reason being – “I don’t have a problem, everyone else has the problem” Whenever she visits I have to be watchfull of everything I say, so as not to upset her or make her feel unwelcome. She has constant mood swings and is a very difficult person to be around.

Her father is an alcoholic. He drinks heavily every day and has numerous medical ailments, but that won’t stop him drinking. Last month, he had another surgery and now has a colostemy bag. He was told by his surgeon to stop drinking but he won’t. His drinking is one of the main reasons his marriage ended to my wife’s mother.

Her older brother is a border line alcoholic who has become violent when he’s drunk. He has also started using drugs occasionally.The violence and drug taking has only started since his relationship with his girlfried ended. Before that he was a great person.

Her younger brother is a supposed reformed drug user/dealer. I haven’t had much to do with her younger brother because he lives the furtherest away, but the time I have spent with him makes me feel uneasy. I simply don’t trust him.

The main problem I have is that we have a young son and I don’t want him exposed to the lifestyles and problems of her family. Unfortunately my wife’s childhood with her family and their relationships since then have always been tumultuous and full of drama, but she is still desperate to have any kind of relationship with them that she can. She regularly will turn a blind eye to things that happen with them. I am not so forgiving or understanding.

I want my wife to know that I love her dearly and understand how important her family is to her, but at the same time I need her to know that my top priority is protecting my family and I will do anything to do that, even if it means upsetting hers. How can I let my wife know this without upsetting her or making her feel like I don’t want her to have contact with ther family. I’m happy for her family to be in our lives, but not at the cost of affecting our son’s upbringing.

For the past year to two years my marriage has been on a steady downhill slide. We have been married for almost eight wonderful years but my wife has seemed to let the verse “bad associations spoil useful habits” take control of her life. The problems started when she started associating with a group of people that have ALL been in trouble with the law for drugs and possession of drugs. I could see the trouble on the horizon and asked, begged and demanded that she pay close attention to where she was headed but to no avail. We have two children, ages 3 and 7 together and for the past 3 months she has quit all of her wifely duties from cleaning to sexual relations. When we (I) discuss it she blows up and refuses to discuss it, only stating over and over that she wants a divorce. I can not leave because I am the only one working but she wont even try and find work. Is there anything I can do legally to get her removed at least until she is ready to be married again or we divorce?? HELP!

O.K. my sister has abandoned her family, including 3 kids, and only speaks to my dad because he gives her money. I am certain she is doing drugs. She is not a kid, 35, and used to be just fine; great mom, wife, sister, daughter. I just found out that she stole prescription medication, and money from my parents house. I’m looking for some website or group to show my dad that giving her money and bailing her out of her problems is not helping her, but actually hurting her in the long run. She needs help, but not the help my dad is giving her. Maybe I am wrong, but I truly believe handing money to someone on drugs for “groceries” or what not is not the best idea.
