You are absolutely right about everything Theo. Friday night at the ballgame I sat with friends. I had one on each side of me when he got there so he sat behind me. I pretty much ignored him the whole game.

You are right that he comes from a family that appears to have no or little values. I guess you are asking yourself why I married him. He was so good to me when we were dating. He pursued me. He took me nice places, bought me nice things, and was very nice to me and my family. I can remember at times thinking that he loved me more than I loved him. Sad that he either changed later or his true colors came out.

In a true sense he had not been a "dad" to our girls in the past few years. I guess it's hard for me to watch him criticize his daughters for everything and not realize his mother's faults.

His mother is the type who is always mad at someone. She has a love-hate relationship with one of her sisters. For a couple of years, all she did was talk badly about her, now they are thick as thieves.

H keeps bringing up the fact that DD17 called my dad and stepmother to tell them the news of homecoming without calling his mother. They are the ones who stay involved in her life even though they are 5 hours away. I thought at first he was just uncomfortable having to face my dad on homecoming night, but now I realize it's not only that, but that he is jealous and mad that she called them and not his parents.

So Theo, what do you suggest I do? I do not pursue him. Are you suggesting it's time to cut my losses and divorce him? I keep getting closer to that decision everyday. By the way your reply is not too harsh, it's just the truth.
