"Get out, for God's sake man! Get out! You've served your time. Your kids are suffering! You've done your time!" In fact, I believe I've screamed those very words at him.

But Zbube has made it very clear repeatedly over and over time and time again that he is not getting out




I am not suggesting ZB get out, though the thought does have merits. In some ways I am like him.

I just want ZB to have less financial pressure. I read that he has payments on 2 houses and Ms. ZB wanted to spend another $7,000 for a quad cycle for the kids. ZB said something about almost being bankrupt. I just want him to have a place to live and where he can maintain a family in some comfort. If I were ZB I would ask myself, “do I want a house to live in, or do I want a quad cycle?

Maybe ZB is not in that tight of a $$$$ situation now. Maybe my 3 years in college with some people that lost jobs, got down-sized, had little income for several months, had to sell assets, caused me to think financial cushion, where is it for ZB.

I read another web site about men in mid-life-crisis, that sometimes walk out on the family because they feel burdened by the family’s irresponsible and selfish actions. I would rather not see ZB walk out completely. But none of this is for me to decide. It’s ZB’s choice. I am just suggesting Ms. ZB is loading more on to his plate than is fair.

I have decided to support that decision, because I don't want him to be all alone in this.


I support ZB too because I know he won't leave but separate households is an option if "HE" chooses.

As long as we keep questioning his decision, he has to keep defending it to us and to himself.


ZB's decisions are his. All I want to is give support to ZB and encourage him not to be a doormat.

Lil, it is difficult for me to see ZB get what I call crumbs while others in the family enjoy cake.
