    You can't change your name from the original one you chose.
    Hopefully she doesn't know this site exists

    Ya your probably right. I hate this paranoid feeling this whole thing is giving me! Thanks for the scripture. I think I learned more of Gods word in the last two weeks than I have in the last two years!

    I have it up to remind myself that nothing is in my hands. We're going through a custody battle right now with my husband's ex-wife which has just taken a very sharp turn, but thankfully it's in our favor.

    I used to get paranoid too, that she would find this site and somehow use it against us. But then again, nothing I've said here isn't true so she has nothing to complain about.

We just barely bought a house and all we really own is a bunch of second hand furniture and a lot of debt. What impact do you think it will have on the divorce concerning my wife taking our computers, our camera, and emptying out our bank accounts before she left? What do you think my chances are that I will be able to return to the home. She is not living there and I don't thnik she intends to return there either.

    I had a case recently where I represented a mom on a TRO, the parties went to mediation and agreed to joint custody. The judge granted the restraining order (I think for 3 years) but allowed the joint custody. And it was a true 50-50 timeshare. It worked out fine for the dad and he didn't care about the restraining order anyway.

    Don't worry so much. Everything's going to be fine.

    I guess that wouldn't be so bad. We could always go back to court later to get the restraining order lifted if that's what she wanted to do. I still have hope for my marriage but My son is more important to me right now. I can't change my wife, only she can do that.

    When I go to court and tell the Judge that my wife isn't living in the home. What are the chances that I will get to move back in? I'm going to state that I have been unemployed for 3 months and that I was the primary caretaker for my son during that time. Do you think that the judge will grant this even if she claims that she is living there? How can I take further action if she lies and says she is living there?
