  1. Considering Divorce or Separation
    Hello I have been married for 4 years. It’s been an abusive marriage from the start. I have tried everything to make it work. Over the last four years, I have lost my job, alienated my friends and family members, destroyed my self esteem and so much more. I am not allowed to go to work, wear...
  2. Going Through Divorce or Separation
    Wanted to share my situation because I'm at a crossroads. About 9 months ago, my wife and I had a terrible fight. Not physical, but close. She threatened to "*&^ing kill me" at one point. Aside from that and a few other fights throughout our 9 years of marriage and 12 yrs together, I thought we...

    Hello TAM community, I'm coming to you out of desperation in need of as much sage advice as I can get... Long-story short, I threatened my wife that I would take full custody of our unborn child. It was a foolish, desperate attempt to get her to realize that I am just as much committed to the...

    Hello, I am 33M in Michigan. I have a 5 year old daughter who lives primarily with her mom (we are divorced). Our daughter has a tad bit of baby weight but nothing extreme. We have worked over the years to make proper health decisions and have made great progress with getting her BMI in line...
  5. Going Through Divorce or Separation
    So I left my soon to be ex-husband on April 14, 2016. The following week he moved in my cousin who he was cheating on me with while we were together. I warned him, along with my entire family warning him, that she was going to use him and get pregnant on purpose so that she could get money from...

  7. General Relationship Discussions
    I met him on normal, legit terms. We dated. We moved a little fast but both feel a little older and wiser after two divorces and children in our custody. When you know exactly what you want after years of experience, I think it's ok to move a little faster than would a single twenty-something...
  8. Coping with Infidelity
    I am having a lot of problems talking about our son with my cheating STBXH. My M.O. has been to email or text because often, when we talk on the phone, we argue. Or he'll start asking me questions about my life - my job, how I'm doing, how he wants to see me socially and get together for coffee...

  11. General Relationship Discussions
    I am in desperate need of advice, I'm very lost at this moment and don't know what I should do. Lets try and make a long story short, about 2 months ago my wife asked me if one of her friends could come stay with us for awhile. My initial answer was no due to previous issues we had in the past...

  13. Going Through Divorce or Separation
    I'm a divorced dad. I've been seperated from my ex-wife for over two years. In that time I've seen my two daughters only weekends and I was supposed to have them this Christmas but she took them away with her new boyfriend and I was left alone. I'm a good father, never been charged with a...
  14. Going Through Divorce or Separation
    It amazes me, stbxw cheats, leaves home and moves in with OM and then can't fathom why her 11 year old daughter might not want to be hanging out with her over there and doing sleepovers (OM isn't there at night). I guess it goes along with the selfishness. She wants it all to work out for her...

His contract ran out 1 week after baby born, refused to look for a job for 9 months, 1 month after baby was born I was diagnosed with...
