Do you think Mel Gibson is in MCL? everyone is making fun of him. i have to admit that i lost alot of respect for him when he dumped his wife who stuck thru thick and think with him. And poor Sandra Bullock and Tiger Wood's beautiful wife. All that publicity just makes our spouses' affairs seem commonplace..every one is doing it!
MLC for Mel Gibson? I doubt it. These people have a whole different type of life. Money is king and the decisions they make are about money. There is a reason why the LOVE of money is the root of all evil. I am not rich but my wife I do ok. I have been to California and seen a lot. They hurt inside with the relationships they have just like you and me, but money is always a big deal. They have to think about it before they get married when most of us midwesterners start out with nothing and build a life along with wealth with patience and hard work. That's how my dad did it. My wifes dad did it and all of my friends and relatives. It is not just midwestern folks though just feels good to say it that way. I love California though, would like to live there but roots are here. Tiger Woods? She gets 750 million and sole custody out of that. That might heal some pain. Where do I sign up? But you know that with that amount of money it would be extremely difficult to keep or need God in our lives. People near them can't possibly be sincere. How can you make friends with someone or build relationship knowing that the other person is rich or going to be rich after marriage. They know in the back of their mind if it doesn't work out at least I will get some money out of it. What a way to build a life together. Watching each others moves wondering if something is about to break. The temptation for Tiger was too great. All of us in MLC land are in a different boat. A boat we both did not have a clue about. As cruel as this is for us to go through, it will crack or build our very foundation that is part of our soul. Now what do we do? Where are the instructions? You mentioned you have always put yourself in others shoes to solve your issues in your head. That is not going to work here. That makes this uncomfortable for us. EXACTLY. Getting out of the comfort zone. That is where the growth for us is. Never mind that you did not choose this path. This is what we got right now. Went to my Medical Doctor when this first started to get a baseline on cholesterol BP etc. Told him a little about what was happening. He told me "Warrior, some wives get cancer some get this. You get to have this." Then he said, "If she goes through with it, tell her don't let the door hit you in a$$ on the way out". IC does not agree with this though. He is versed in MLC. His wife went through it.
