CeMar: Ah…3 kids…now it all makes sense. You are a noble man putting the happiness of your children first. Though, let me plant a little food for thought here. I know this is dangerous ground, so please, let me clarify that I am not questioning your parenting in any way.
In order to be a good father, you must be emotionally available for your kids. You have to be the all knowing type, the inspiration, the role model, the protector, and a whole number of wonderful fatherly things. Though, if you personal happiness depletes below a certain level, you simply will not have the energy to live up to the obligation you have to your kids. Thus, I might suggest that you rethink your argument of sticking it for the sake of the kids. A lot of parents (unfortunately) raise kids just fine even after D.
CeMar, Cobra was trying to get a rise out of you to see if you would crack and spill the real heart of the matter. He is a master at this technique. Though, since we have hijacked cally’s thread, maybe you could post on of your own and kind of state the problem in the most honest way you can?
By all means marry; if you get a good wife, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher. -- Socrates
