I am so sorry you have to go through this. You do have one thing going for you right away, though. . . it sounds like you have and are putting your children first. It is not easy to get your feet back under yourself, and your kids will be way ahead if they see you focused and problem solving. I sense that you will be there for them no matter what, and that they will have a dad who rises above and sets the good example they need to help them grow up and enter adulthood without so many scars.

Lifting you in prayer also . . .

Hi Mitch and welcome to NT. You have received great advice. Sorry your going through so much. I noticed on your profile you said if you do not get help in the next five...

Please know this is a great place for support and there are many areas to get just that. I hope you come back on to read all the replies. No matter what goes on in your life just do one thing. Look at those babies and know they need their daddy to help them get through this too. That is the best reason to keep going. Hugs.

Mitch,

It hurt me to read your post. I went through very similiar circumstances with my ex 4 years ago. I know how bad it hurts when you feel like you keep giving and it's not appreciated. (Or even worse: spit on.)

And I have 2 sons from my ex, too. I had new dog tags made with thier names on them. Because they are who I fight for now.

It's gonna take awhile to get over the hurt. I know it did for me. It takes awhile for it to just "sink in" that it's over. You are doing the right thing with coming to this site. Lots of great people here. And my advice is to keep looking for help with this. Grab the phonebook or check the web for support groups and such.

Trust me partner, you don't feel it now, but eventually you'll be glad she's gone.

And then you, me, and all our kids will go to Hooters together!

Keep posting, and remember;

You are not alone.
You are one of us.
And we are here to help.
