Chris, i have no words of wisdom but I do have time to pray for you and trust someone above us all to help you through this. A lot of us have been where you are and we're no smarter or better than you. you WILL make it.

Hey Chris....i also do not know you, and thats what makes it even better, i care for all people the same whether I know you or not.
Like most have said we all go thru tough times in our lives...not only once but many many times...i know i have had about 5 very difficult times, i mean like rock bottom....and im a youngin at 29.
Whatever you do try not to get to down, its ok to hurt, but to go into a deep depression can be the worse thing you can do......it can make you lose total control of your life and make some very regrettable decisons that you may not be able to turn around.

Take care of yourself....

Chris,

My daughter is a counselor and a social worker, she was asked to go to New York to help counsel the surviving family members who lost a loved when when the twin towers were attacked on 9/11. She has also worked in nursing homes and mental health facilities. She has taught many people when asked "how are you?" to answer "I am fine" even if they are not. The thinking is, even though they are not fine and by responding they are, they may eventually come to think they are fine and realize there are people much worse off than you. If you think positive, then positive things are going to happen to you. It's hard to put in words what I am trying to say to you. But I guess my message is this: think positive, go talk to someone, get your feelings out in the open, if you can't afford counseling, how about a minister, priest or rabbi? I know you think life has dealt you a dirty blow but once you get it off your chest and seek help you will look at things in a whole different light. Get going, trust me! Good luck and God bless!

I agree with you Yoopr. Something fishy going on here.

I'm just surprised that no one has taken him to task over his duplicity.
Seems to me an explanation is in order here. :?

Thanks for all the comments everyone, it's really hard, but I am making it. I have decided to fight for her, I think it's just one of those things that turned into something more, I don't think she did it on purpose, but it happened and she may believe she has no other way out. I know she loves me, and I love her, we have a son, and 12 years together, he can't overcome that, I will let everyone know how it turns out.

As far as the fund raiser goes, there wasn't one, someone else on the board suggested it, and many people were eager to give, but I turned them all down, if you don't believe me, find a person on here who gave me or her a penny, it can't be done. We wound up getting our money back after a few weeks, and that was that, nothing fishy about it.

I echo the sentiments of the others.
Breaking up is hard on a person, words from others are just that words!
Keep in mind, the last few months, the different trucking jobs and all.
Just how long will this O/O thing last?
I predict not too long.
Someone will be back at your doorstep!
Think long and hard if that door should be opened!
I do wish you the best and hope it will turn out even better!

Gee... Freebird:

Sure am GLAD you didn't have to JUST use "words" to convey your wisdom to Chris! :lol:

My "words" are just reflections of my soul, wisdom and experience. What was that YOU used? Plasma?? :lol:

No offense intended. Just razzin' ya! :P :P :P

Chris, I don't have anything wise to say to you, but I am praying for you.

I enjoyed your writing, and I hope you will hang around here. We all want to support you as best we can.
