Infidelity Stinks

Not only was I afraid of being totally alone ( single with kids), I also worried about finances. How can a woman all alone make it these days? Well, it seems hard, but it CAN be done. First of all, if you haven't been working because you've been a stay-at-home- mom for your kids, I congratulate you!! I've been there, done that and it was wonderful. I did start working again and had my own business so I was able to choose my hours pretty much. If you don't have a job and are facing being on your own, there are several options open ...

Is it any wonder that because our daughter is out of sight, she's out of his mind too? That isn't fair. We both had this wonderful child together and he should be trying to be more a part of her life. Yes, you are probably wondering why I am so stressed out about his part of the deal, however, you wouldn't understand unless you had a daughter who sometimes broke into gigantic crocodile tears over not hearing from her own father. She is torn up over the fact that he just doesn't have time for her.....no visits, no phone calls, only when a blue ... Read Full Story

Well, to be quite honest, I was very afraid of being alone. Being on my own sounded so wonderful when I was a teen, but once I got married and left home, I became accustomed to being with someone.....having someone there when I needed them.

I was afraid of having to sleep alone at night, having to lock the doors alone, eating dinner without him near, and hearing the silence in the night. Yes, ... Read Full Story

Oh, I think that something must be array in my brain somewhere, somehow because I just feel like there are days that I can't help but wonder about him. We had many years together and even though we went through many very bad days, we also had some good days there too. He cheated on me, so that's that. He made his decision when he made the decision to cheat. Obviously he was more into "her" than he was into "us" and our family. Things are done now, and there's nothing that I can do about it. However, since we do have a child ... Read Full Story

Now I have issues to face, not only about sleeping alone and cooking for one less person, but I have to now deal with paying bills alone. I know that I am a good bookkeeper and have always paid all the bills, but now it's with less money. I don't think that child support is even nearly half of what I was getting towards the bills. I am no longer living in my once-adored home, because I gave it up to him. He was not leaving, and I stayed as long as I could. I was pretty much forced out, but that's okay. I ... Read Full Story
