Re: kinda bummed.

Young Tor has a point.

Am I understanding correctly that you supported her through law school?

Yes, she has achieved a degree as a paralegal and now a Doctorate in lawschool. I have worked 2 or 3 jobs almost consistantly since the 80s. She has primarily been a stay at home mom. I was trying to go to school to get into nursing, but couldnt get thru algebra. Its a VERY difficult course for me, plus, being hard of hearing, it didnt help that the teachers barely soke english. And I was working 2 jobs at the time, so I had to try and do homework from like 1-3 am. So, I failed algebra . She had a paralegal degree at the time but wanted to go to lawschool. So she got mad that I was taking too long and went back to school..

Tor,
Yes, I know thats what is going on.

I filed for divorce a couple of years ago and she came and begged me to give her another chance for the kids and all.. So, I am gonna file again this year..

Thanks all for the support guys..didnt mean to come on here to whine, just needed to vent. As you can imagine, I dont have any buds to hang with, so I appreciate you listening.(reading)

Re: kinda bummed.

Sorry to hear all that man. That sounds like an inordinately tough situation to have to live in. In my view, marriage is supposed to be a supportive relationship to each other, and that includes hobbies that keep someone occupied and make them happy. My wife an I bought a house this last year, and I have my own man room. It's where the computer is, I hang my guitars on the wall, and I have a garage shop, too. She has her own room for her clothes and scrapbooking stuff. We've both come to the realization that if the bills are paid, and we are saving some money as we should, spending a bit on the entertainment stuff is not a bad thing at all. Even at our old place that was much smaller, a couple guitars hung in the living room.

I actually have a friend who plays guitar and sings, and does some open mic night stuff, and a bit of self-recording, and I remember a time when he told me his wife was absolutely adamant that he couldn't go get a Squier Strat that someone was GIVING AWAY on Craigslist. I am very glad I didn't have to deal with such things, because I would be very single right now. I hope whatever the outcome, it's not a big, bloody battle, and you can get it fixed with your sanity intact.
