  1. We met at 15…. Married at 21…14 years and 3 kids later my marriage was ending. I felt empty.
    . I filled September 3rd of 2014. After 60 consecutive days of asking eddie to come home, repeatedly getting ignored and hard reality that i had been served with a restraining order i had no choice…. Divorce was finalized on the 16th of October. 2014. (( also my oldest sons 13th birthday))). My heart was shredded.
    The judge said i had been entitled to alamony… I didnt want it…

    I said. “your honor. . all i want out of this is hos signature on the the damn paper. ”

    Divorce granted.

    I didn’t want the divorce…. He left me with no choice

    1. Hi Jessica. Thanks so much for sharing, and I am deeply sorry that you didn’t end up with the results you were after.
      I hope you all have got through without to much scaring? Pushing is the worst thing we all tend to do when we are trying to save our marriage but the heart wants and the resistance between that and the mind is hard:)

      1. It’s a battle when the separation isn’t mutual or one feels obligated as i have learned.

        Mental stability, Thoughts and things in general with life became more manageable when i realized i didn’t have to know why or even be given a reason that i could understand….

        I just had too accept that i couldn’t change it…. And move on.

    1. Greeting Paul. Thank your for you kind words and Wise input. The problem is even so much more deeper than the level from which has been played out here. But I am trying to explain just the basis.
      The solution totally lies in the eyes of hearts of the soul who’s searching.:)

      I have many hopes that the words and offering here will indeed help many with getting their love back on track to say the least.

      Best Regards Rob

  3. So many never get to the co conclusion that you have,  we live in cycles, some God and some bad. We don’t have to live in the bad ones, we make a choice to go with what is familiar but not necessarily comfortable. Congratulations on breaking the cycle of abuse. I pray for you and your ex that you will continue down a more peaceful way in life.

    1. Thank You so much for your kind words Chris! I can tell you that once one can grasp reality, and unless you continue to keep your eyes closed. The only way is up, and I appreciate every prayer that comes my way, I am sure God is sending them my way every time:) My wife is not an ex to me, and every day in every way we get better and better with great thanks from learning the right and wrongs…

      Many Blessing Rob

  4. Hi Robert,

    It is heartbreaking to see such destruction around you and you feel so helpless.  A friend of mine recently got divorced and it was really ugly.  Three children are in the middle of this and I feel really sorry for them.  I don’t think people realize what they do to their children if they cannot get along in their relationship / marriage.

    I am very happy you got back with your wife and managed to resolve some issues.  In my opinion the biggest culprit of broken marriages and relationships are the lack of proper communication.  It starts with something small and before you know it, it has a snowball effect.

    I wish you all the best and will keep an eye out for your updates!

  5. Breaking up and making up with someone you’ve committed yourself to “for better or worse” is always hard… The good part is that usually it’s a period of immense growth and a lot of introspection, if there was genuine love… (which it sounds like you genuinely have loved your wife… )  I know in my experience, that’s how it was for me as well… And I agree, positive changes in a marriage have to start with the will to change… You have to look inward before anyone has any business looking at the faults of those outward…
