From a lady pede…
I would stay. No divorce for now. Don’t leave. I feel like she could change the narrative and say that you abandoned her and your daughter. I don’t know if that’s something that could happen but I’d err on the side of caution. I didn’t see the age of your daughter but if you could stay until she turns 18, I’d try and do that.
Have you or your wife considered counseling? Make sure it’s a Christian counselor, if that’s something you want to explore. Maybe, just maybe, there is something going on with her? Medically? Mentally?
You said you’ve asked her what’s going on, but have you really listened to her if she tried to tell you? Not just hear but actually listened without judgement or letting your feelings get in the way?
Women are complex creatures and nothing is really black & white like it may be for a man. It can take me a long time to finally get to what’s really bothering me in a disagreement. God Bless my husband for enduring the time it takes me to get there in figuring it out. (And yes, something unrelated to our marriage can bother me, it festers, and I will many times take it out on him. I’m not proud of that, but it happens.)
Ten plus years of marriage is a long time. Marriage is never always easy. It takes work. You said you are working 1 and a half jobs, then spending quality time with your daughter. How much time was left for your wife? Do you have the option of hiring a sitter and going on dates with your wife?
Oh, that reminds me…. There was an excellent book I read years ago called, The Love Dare. It’s on Amazon for just under $10. Its written by two Christian authors and it was quite insightful.
I have to go for now but I will be committing you to prayer and checking in later.
** Highly recommend the book, The Love Dare!
Just when I thought I couldn’t love President Trump any more - I see something like this and, just like that, I love and respect him more!
Is anyone going to tell them that it’s PLASTIC eggs they use for these hunts? I mean, maybe the climate fear mongers would have a say, but PETA? smh
(LOVE the comment about admitting the egg is a live animal.)
I’ve been watching YouTube video of (mainly younger girls) getting pulled over for drunk driving. In just about every one of them, they will claim that they suffer from anxiety issues or PTSD.
Hugs and prayers for you, your mom and your family. You will be in my thoughts.
I love that you’re carrying on your family tradition with ‘homemade with love’ birthday cakes!
Sorry you got the crud. My family has had it all week and I thought I was going to be spared but this morning, I can feel it coming on.
Rest easy and feel better soon so you can enjoy your grand baby!
This is me too, exactly!
Our God is an Awesome God!
This happened to be a few years ago. They spoofed my child’s school! I thought there was an incident at school or my child was injured or sick. When I answered it, it was some idiot spammer.
I now check the number along with the caller ID but even those numbers are close to the original.
I have seen these at the Dollar Tree in the baby section. If I remember correctly, three came in a package. Fun idea! Also, I learned something new today about Jeeps and rubber ducks. Thank you!
This makes my soul happy!
Agreed with every comment. Also…he has ugly feet. Just saying.
Add: enter into a legal contract?
I’m so sorry for your loss. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Hold on to the special memories you have of your brother. This will see you through this difficult time.
This makes my heart happy! I love reading these stories!
Wait.
Are you saying that now we have a ‘women’s history’ month? Is this a new thing?
We just finished black history month and coming up soon will be that pride stuff. Ugh!
I’m old enough to remember when we just had ‘months’.
A 'shit post'... literally.
Looks legit though!
My heart goes out to you. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. {{{Hugs}}}
I am so sorry for your loss. My heart hurts for you. Prayers for your family and for you.
I love President Trump!
I bought the Kroger brand, extra large, and they were $3.79 doz.
I usually buy Egg-land Best brand (Jumbo size).
When I was at the store on Friday, I saw that the Egg-land brand and Werner brand were the ones marked on sale for $7.99 (on sale from $9). The Kroger brand was cheaper for that same size, which I ended up buying.
I did take a picture on my phone to show my husband and for myself because I couldn’t believe it.
I’m sorry I missed the original post. My heart goes out to you for your loss. May all the special memories you have of your sister bring you comfort during this time. {{{Hugs}}}
