I wasnt referring to you in my post about sad thing is we areteaching our kids, its all about our happiness, I was reference what I understood you wife to say that she needed to be away from you to be happy...i thought that was sad.....I just believe that america is really messed up...we are spoiled and everyone thinks our purpose in life is to be happy.....i dont mean i think we should all stay and be miserable...i mean we have a responsibility to not put ourselves first..and by serving others that is actually what brings happiness..so many are so deceived and your wife will find that out one day.....and the sad thing is a family is taken down in the mean time....the statics state over and over that down the road people look back on the divorce and realize had they done things different....the outcome would be different...frank i know you tried...now is not the time to worry, trust in God, move forward, he knows where you are at...surrendor your wife to him....focus on your kids...and your purpose in life and hopefully you will find your way..i think you have done great...your wife is very a shallow,...but she is clearly hurting...remember hurting people hurt others....that is the source of the misery she brings to your family....her hurts .....and its a road she has to travel by herself...unfortunely
