I need to vent..you all are the only people around

Sorry to hear this man.


I have some things I'd like to say, but I'll keep them to myself for now...

 

Sorry to hear Bro! I really feel for you and your kids. I hate to say this, but only time will heal. Try to think of your kids and just be the best dad you can be. It is her loss that she left. Hopefully she will regret her actions really soon and come back home.

 

this is the best post I have ever read on here. you the man Chris.

Atticus, I am truly sorry. I wish I could say something helpful but I am at a complete loss. Be strong, for your children.

 

Get the kids into see a counselor/ pastor ASAP, talk with their teachers and give them a heads up. X1000 on keeping your head up, stay focused on whats important and what you need to do.

 

Oh my goodness...I just checked the bank account online. She nearly cleared it out! How could I be married to this thing for 20 years and not know how heartless she is??

 

holy hell man. im not exactly sure what to say other than I am very sorry to hear this. hopefully things get resolved for you man. we are here for you.

 

Is there anything you can do about that???

 

See if you can put a freeze on the account and also let the bank know that the transactions were unauthorized. Might help. Maybe if they are over a certain distance from your house you could say it wasn't you guys

 

Idk I'm going to the bank in the morning to the bank and see what can be done. I didnt know she could take that much out without my consent as well.

 

WOW. Makes my problems very small. X2 on what kinetik873 said.

 

Get a lawyer. and get records of the bank withdrawls. Sounds like she went right for the throat, CYA ( Cover Your A**) and start getting documents in order. Ammo against alimony.

 

x2. i thought i had some issues going on.

do whats more important right now which are your kids and keeping your job so you can provide for those kids.


best of luck to you brother.

 

X2!

 

wow sorry... Go get your kids go on a trip... Maybe time for a Florida keys fishing trip? seriously take what is left in your bank account open a new one at a dif bank asap.

 

Wow man. That sucks. You need to play it smart. Just think of those 2 kids you have. Stay strong!

 

like everyone else said. get those kids to a pastor/counselor. in the meantime hang with your kids. build a stronger relationship with them then you ever have. if you feel abandon then it's 10 times worse for them because teens react... well you know. seek a support system of friends/church, whatever. freeze your accounts and just keep surviving. chances are your wife is looking for something, but we know she ain't gonna find it. true satisfaction comes from making the best of your circumstances. the grass isn't greener on the other side, it's green where you water it. water that relationship between you and your kids. it might make her jealous if she finds out. sorry to hear about your situation.

 

Thanks for all the positive support guys. I'll tell you that this is the only thing keeping me going:
James 1: 2-4.
"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything."

I have my brother on the phone. 1st time we have talked in 3 years.

 

sorry to hear all this. the kids are in texas with their aunt? her sister or yours? i think you know where im going with the questions....

 

very heartless.
keep your head up.
You and your kids will make it through.

 

see, some good will come out of this. hold to the truths you believe.
