Today’s topic: Four years of our marriage belong to her Dear Steve and Shirley, I have been with my husband for years. We were high school sweethearts. I have loved him with my everything. I found out two years ago that he had a girlfriend that he has been with for four years of the eight that we have been married. I was in the shock of my life. I thought I was going to die. She plays on my phone and curses me out. I even got an STD. At the time when I first found out, I forgave him and decided to move on. To be a
damn fool, six months later he was seeing her again. To make matters worse, she decide that she would move to our town where we live, thinking that she would have him 100 percent. I have worked really hard to keep my family. We have three kids. I was not about to let this b**** destroy my family. I am at the point now where she can have him. I think that it is time for me to let go. I must admit, I love him, but I love me more. He doesn’t come home from work until after midnight. He gets off at 7:00 p.m. I know that he is with her. I always say that it is cheaper to keep her. That stuff is for the birds.
Why is this man still in my life if he doesn’t want me? I told him I would give up all of my rights for him to pay me child support. We have a house together with both of our names on the deed. He is always trying to put me out. How can I make him leave? Thanks. Signed, My husband is her husband!
