    I wish I had kept a picture I found on the net. It was a very large woman, sitting in front of the TV, with pink hair rollers, eating a huge bowl of ice cream, with her legs propped up, wearing a house coat. IT was funny. When I used to chat in Yahoo, of course guys always ask for a pic and I would send that one. Funny thing, they would quit talking to me! Lol.

    Lmao. That has happened to me too. Then the guy says something really great like, "did you like it?" You can imagine the rest of his conversation. Lol.

    Wow, déjà vu. The same thing happened to me. I had an ectopic pregancy 6 months after I gave birth to our first, unexpected child. He was not very supportive or understanding with the PPD. In fact, he and his mom kept telling me to "pick myself up by my bootstraps and move on". He didn't understand nor did he want to. Don't go back with him. It is hard now, but it will be even harder later if you reconcile. I am finding myself now after 6 yrs of marriage... wishing I would have called it quits then. It is a really tough road if you stay and then you still don't feel that you've won the battle.

    GEEZ SARAII, you are a big jokester, like you said, full of sh!t@!! LOL OK well, even though you are struggling and missing him, you are making us so proud. That is because you are standing up for yourself and for your happiness, something many people don't have the balls to do! (SO TO SPEAK) I am sure that as difficult as every day is without him, it would be more difficult to be with him and be so unhappy with the way he treats you. You are teaching him how to treat you different, that is the best thing you could do. Maybe it works out , maybe not, but at least you are true to yourself and what you really want. I don't think anyone can down you for that! You're my HERO!!

    Think about it, sleep on it tonight and see how you feel tomorrow. I don't think you should jump back to where you were, but maybe meet in a neutral place. Have a drink or go out to eat, but continue to stay separate until you both understand exactly what you want and agree to how it will change/happen. Maybe write him a letter about everything you feel. Then sit down and talk about all the things that need working on. NOT as an attack, but about improving the relationship. MAke out some arrangement, and work slowly towards going back to normal. If you can do it this long, you can continue until you have most of what you want/need out of the relationship. If you take him back 100% too soon, he will most likely fall back into the same pattern as before, too quickly. YOu are doing the right thing. You don't have to ignore him, but just continue to distance yourself till your totally ready. OK git to that homework!!

Flirting wαs eαsy becαuse well there's no strings αttαched.. but I got bored.. I wαnt my husbαnd bαck..

    yes I know you think I'm weαk yes I know you think I'm αn idiot...

I know I'll be deαd in the inside but you know whαts best for little shαylα.. keep your fingers crossed guys.. I would reαlly love to see him chαnged..

    Sarai,
    IT is Your life,
    You do what you want with it...
    We will be here to lend a Hug or two when you need it.

    Better with your husband than with some stranger I would always say... ;)

    Sarai, only you can determine if you're an 'idiot' or not. I don't judge, and neither does anyone else.

    You know no matter what you do, I will be here for you with either elation or sorrow. That's me - supportive, period. You did nothing wrong.

    One little teeny weeny suggestion though... don't jump his bones right off. Make him work on earning you and your trust.

    Have a great weekend.

    Keep repeating that in your head and make him hear it sometimes..

    Your list does seem small to us... but it must be A BIG DEAL for you because those there are the very reasons you wanted to call it Quits!

    My husband and I separated briefly for a few months at the beginning of the year. When we first separated, I was sure that we were going to get divorced. Once the anger about the split started residing, he started thinking. He actually realized and understood that what I wanted... was not asking too much.. in fact, he understood that what I was asking is the way a husband should be. I was so scared to take him back. My whole family and the majority of my friends told me I was an idiot. Something inside of me kept telling me I had to get it another shot. I made a deal with myself and I made him aware of the deal. I told him that I'd give it 6 months. He had 6 months to prove to me that he had and would change or I was out the door. I am prepared that if he doesn't fulfill his end of the bargain... then I will fulfill mine. But then, at least, I will know that I gave it everything I've got to keep my marriage together. The ball is in his court now. What he does with it is up to him.
    My family is starting to come around. All but one of my friends won't talk to me still... but at least I know that I am doing the right thing for me and my family. At the end of the day, you have to be able to look yourself in the mirror. Do what you need to do to be able to hold your head high. It is your life. You only get one (unless you believe in re-incarnation... to those who do, my apologies for this phrase). Do what you think is best for you. Divorce or not... it is up to you. But take the rose colored glasses off and look at the situation from ALL angles before you decide to take him back.
    Think of where you see yourself in 6 months, 1 year and more if you do take him back. Do you like what you see in that image?

    Sorry to hear of the rough time your having Sara. To start babies are such a life changing event in our lives, and they do require a lot of adjustments. More patients, and more talking, and listening on both parts. As the emotional dust settles, I think it's a lot easier to communicate on a more loving level, and resolve many of the issues that are driving a wedge between you two. I hope you take the opportunity to talk and listen, as I have read your list and it sounds good to me, and very doable. Give him a chance to get his head wrapped around the changes, and adjust his thinking and behavior, so you both can get what you want, and be happy. I wish you luck as I know how hard it is to maintain a relationship, with the changes life throws at us.

    he has work to do, and you know it.

    just don't settle for the comfort of familiar. I can't tell you what's wrong or not. Most of us get kicked in the teeth a few times before we figure out what to do.

    maybe that means you back away. Maybe not.

    maybe he's the one getting kicked, and maybe he will step up.

    soooo... I hope you get the happiness you deserve. I hope he's up to the task. Doing the hard work that it takes to make a marriage work is worth doing... until it isn't... sometimes it never gets to that point.

    so I'm playing the "big brother" role here. I don't like he's hurt you, and only his actions over a long period will make things right again. Two weeks ago id have put him to the wall. But if you think its worth a try, then you know we will support you.

    eventually we all hopefully "get it right"... here's hoping that you and he can do it together. Remember, its easy when its easy. Its when the crap hits the fan that you know where you stand and what he's willing to do.

    you deserve a husband, a lover, a friend, a companion. Your child deserves a loving father. Hope he's pulled his head out of his arse. Hope you don't need to stick a boot up... well, you know...

    =)
