Much love for family!
Before I go about bashing my brother who I'm guessing had help with his post because unlike seeking to him in person that was post was practically coherent.
For my wife I confronted my natural mother over not wishing to include my two oldest step children over for Christmas. That wasn't my idea, but I burned bridges for her. I never cheated on my wife, yes I can close but didn't do anything though during her pregnancy she made my life hell. I also never said her pregnancy made me sick. I didn't know how to deal with it and yes I didn't want her belly on me (perhaps to much SF in the past) what ever!! I payed for those mistakes for my entire marriage! she didn't have to marry me and she married me 8 months after my son was born. So if what happened during her pregnancy was so damn bad they why would she have said yes? Further more the 5 years of marriage there should have been time for her to work that shit out. it wasn't until after her announcement if the divorce that she even wanted to discuss why she treated me like shit. I worked hard to see that my family's needs were taken care of. I may have changed jobs but I provided for my family and my wife.
My brother seems to have been taken in by the story's my ex weaves. Truth be told we both began relationships after the divorce was started. So where is the problem there? My brother seems to failed to notice that. In fact I had to lesion to a dumb ass lecture from him saying how he couldn't understand me. Well that wasn't much of a surprise. the rift that he spoke of was that his wife said and age didn't matter in a relationship and that was my EX's only real complaint over who I was choosing to speak with. My poor brother was left on the fence and couldn't agree with both. He even told me that he would have to side with my wife because he felt a better change of seeing my son if he threw me under the bus. So much love in my family. Well that's fine, I know I gave my best to have a good marriage and will again. I might not have much currently, like a working car or the money to eat a decent meal. but I'm doing everything possible to get myself back on the right track. I'm working to get my ex payed off but without a vehicle getting to a job is not been possible and efforts to get my car running has only left me broke and still with out a car. I didn't get to have my son weekend because I couldn't say by Wednesday that I wouldn't be working and couldn't pick him up. I miss my son but dealing with my ex isn't easy. She said it wasn't fair that I take women out and don't have the money to pay a bill I owe her. I'm not sure what one had with the other considering I was picked up and had a pleasant time without spending a dollar. I tried to ask where there was a connection but my ex really didn't have an answer. I have had to relay on the generosity of friends to help me with the most simple of tasks, like getting food for my home and for this my ex thinks I should call on these people to help me get my son or watch him while i work (it didn't happen because I couldn't get my car running) But I haven't gone really out and request the help. Perhaps it's pride but I'm not comfortable asking people for their help. So I have a lot of work ahead of me, I knew I would, but I have gotten my self up out before and like that I will do it again.
