We have three beautiful children. But the choices we have made lately have not been the best for us an our family. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69428256 It wasn't the thousands of dollars you stole from us to take pills that broke my love of you, it's the betrayal that you choose a friendship over our marriage. It has eroded everything that we have built in this journey called life. When I said my vows to you it was for us. I never made those vows to Annie. I'm sick every day realizing that you choose Annie over our family. Please people don't judge me or my writing style, I'm a man in alot of pain. This is something I want to say to my wife, but can't. Please pray for my family and me. You can say it to your wife, you just choose not to. Ask yourself why. |

Offer to help her but tell her you won't let her endanger your family any longer. If she refuses help tell her to go. Maybe she will be happier living with Annie. Never forsake a Kraut for the sake of forsaking a Kraut |

Wake up and except your responsibilities. To help your wife she must admit she has a problem..once she does, she can receive professional help. PROFESSIONAL help. She has your children and she deserves respect and love. Stop feeling sorry for yourself..feel compassion for her. |

That's how she deflects to try and avoid the issue. You can still shrink away or hold your ground. Your choice. I don't want to pour salt in your wounds, but you really need to man up here. She is an addict, and she rides a death spiral. You need to stand firm against her drug-addled abuse and FORCE her to make a choice: clean up or get out. You can love and support her as she goes through this, but ONLY if she decides to clean up. That is her choice to make after all. And if she chooses not to, you owe it to yourself to not let her drag you down with her. You also owe it to your children. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 32905326 United States 05/28/2016 11:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hey OP. I am so sorry for your situation. My mother had a drinking problem. It made for some awful family scenes but she was financially responsible. She was the glue that held the family together. She always put others first though she was never recognized for her efforts. My dad was a wonderful person who was loved by all. He stuck by her and always saw the beautiful person who he fell in love with. I dated a guy about 10 years ago who had recently divorced his wife bacause of the same issues you list. She was into drugs and the financial expense was hurting the family. It was a messy divorce. He got the children. He lost all the love that he had for her. I have had experience with both sides of this story. The husband who stuck with his wife and the one who divorced his wife. The difference being, one was still financially responsible and one was harming the family by reckless spending. My friend who divorced was encouraged to do so by his children. Pay attention to their feelings and use that to guide your path forward. Make sure you will get the children before you choose divorce. |
TheGasMan II User ID: 71648857 United States 05/28/2016 11:39 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Funny, no it's an emotional affair. She gets what she "needs" from her. And Annie is a pill head too. bang Annie and your wife will end her friendship with her Could work. Otherwise dude, you have to put your foot down. My wife had a friend, Cheryl. Cheryl would buy the pills and booze and just wanted someone to get fucked up with. All fine and dandy till it starts affecting me and my kids. I had to go over to Cheryl's and physically remove my wife from the scene. Yeah, she was fucked up and pissed, but it had to be done. The wife has not seen Cheryl since, to this day. Oh, and BTW, Cheryl has since been divorced from her husband, lost her job and gone totally off the reservation. You have to grow a pair and stop this shit, NOW! Good luck.

But sometimes thinks really are just are what they are. You sound like someone who has been through it. So have I. Still have dreams about what was, about when times were good, and he was the love of my life. But the drugs won. They won over our family, our children, our love. You can see and know what could have been and it's utterly heartbreaking. But you have to choose sometimes, because the possibilities you can see will be replaced by a drug-induced hell. I am sorry OP. I've been there. But for your sake, for the sake of your children, save yourself. Document her drug abuse so you can have custody and protect them from her chosen lifestyle. It's the hardest thing in the world, believe me I know. But to save your own physical and mental and emotional health, and that of your children, if she doesn't get clean and sober you have to make a new fresh start for yourself. |
