Hi Jen
Just wanted to say you are not alone in your feelings
of "feeling if we really want them back with all the
baggage we now have to deal with" my H did not buy her
gifts they mainly spent their money on booze. they also
rented a 900 + dollar apt. And he gave me no money while
he was gone. However now I am dealing w/ not having money, he also lost his job, so now we really have no money. Then
to top things off he totaled my car. No money from ins. cuz
my loan is more then the blue book value. I just feel like
the money issues keep coming. Ever since this thing started
i have been on the losing end. That is what frustrates me.
Sorry went off on a tangent. But I so feel what you are
feeling. Sometimes I wonder why he came home. BTW she also
lost her job. And she tries to have him give her money.

Sorry I vented. The way you are feeling I can so relate. I
just wanted to let you know that your not the only one
feeling frustrated. And to hang in there. I know I keep trying to tell myself that.
