Stranger In My House Part 2

[Traveler]

HesAble, sorry, that you're going through this, and that the weekends are especially hard on you.

for the past half of our M, was not a good husband a lot of the time (infidelity, drinking problems, financial irresponsibility, not much help with kids, no help around the house, etc.). I think what I am really mourning is the fact that my family will no longer be in tact.

Yes! A year ago I believed the most important thing was to be with one partner my whole life. I now put more weight on the happiness of my kids and I. You must know there are many out there who'd be thrilled to have a 50/50 partnership with someone as committed as you are to trying to make love and family work. I can't believe I put so much energy into my ex. I put a fraction of that energy into my current partner, and she feels cherished, and rewards me so! There are second chances out there for you, if he doesn't shape up soon.
