"If you were guaranteed to have your kids no matter what, and knowing then what you do now about them, would you still marry or get involved with your current spouse?"
Most of us said they would. Me, I said I didn't know--I would have to think on it. I have continued to do so. And after some weighing of the pro's and con's, I now believe that my answer would be "No".
Wow, nocode, I think I am with you. I would say 'no' waaaay before I said 'yes'. I am hoping I won't always regret my choice to marry H (minus the kids of course), but right now, he is the cause of severe and what seems to be never ending pain.
Sorry about wife being out and about while you have the kids. I have the same problem with my H. I know he goes out all weekend when I have them, but I am learning to LOVE the times I have with the kids and cherish the H-free days (the days I don't have to see him).
I am so happy your DivorceCare (how's my friend, M, is it?) dinner parties go well for you and your sons.
