what to do when you just want to live alone?

Q: Ok first, I had one of those chance happenings that I met a foreigner fell in love had a 1 year long distace relationship and then decided to move to his country because he has a son and he couldn’t move to the US. So, we basically got married because the situation we were in when I first moved over was not going to work anymore and we were going to move to a place where I could find work easily (in English) and he could also find a job as his own busines failed. We got married, none of my family was here and there was almost no party because he didn’t want one but last minute he decided to invite all of his old friends and it turned out to be really nice and alot of fun. We moved accross the country and started looking for jobs. He found one about 3 months after we got there and I found one about 8 or 9 months after we arrived. So, we have both been employed for about 1.5 years now and married 2 years and 5 months. I have met very few people here to go out with and frankly if we go out with his friends none of them speak English and I can’t communicate very well in their language though I can understand but, I just don’t enjoy it because when he drinks he is really obnoxious and doesn’t take into consideration my feelings or even the feelings of those around him. He is always complaining that the world is against him and he can’t catch a break and that gets annoying. So, I try not to go out as much and when I do go out with people I semi-enjoy the company of it is without him and it is usually something like a movie or dinner. Nothing exciting like I used to do with my friends back in the US. I found my job that I like and it pays really well compared to my jobs in the States (like 3x’s better) and we don’t go out and we live in a one bedroom apartment with his son who is 10 that lives in the living room because we are *hopefully* going to build a house and he refuses to rent a bigger apartment because he owns the one bedroom and he doesn’t think we should spend the money (I think he is too lazy and cheap to move). His son doesn’t speak English and yet again my knowlege of their language spoken is not that great. There are the normal thing kids do that they need to be reminded not to and told to clean etc. All of these things I don’t think it is my responsibility to say but, my husband tries to lay down the law once or twice and then gives up. He hates his job, he feels sick constantly, he is always tired and he hates it when you try to ask him to do anything. Even if it is to clean up his dishes because you feel it is unfair that you have to work and clean up after him and his son. He freaks out and says I am tired I can’t handle you talking to me, you just don’t know when to stop. He hates having to do anything that is beyond absolute necessity. Like, enrolling his son in an after school program so he doesn’t have to come home and sit by himself for 3 hours. “it is too much paperwork” He doesn’t want to go to his mom when she is having brain surgery because it will be fine and besides they won’t let him off work, which is not true because that same week he was going to take vacation to go ski with his son. He just didn’t want to be inconvenienced by actually having to help someone. I have to go in for surgery in a month and he was going to literally drop me off 2 hours before i need to be there and then come pick me up after the procedure when they release me so that he didn’t have to take time off the job he hates and is about to quit. I know nobody in this country and have no one to help or translate if something needs to be done while I am in the hospital. Then when I asked him to take the day off he freaked out and it ended up with him telling me to fuck myself because I always try to make him feel guilty. Almost everything he does annoys me and his son is getting at my last nerve. I want to move out to save my sanity until the house is built but am worried that that will just make it easier for us to give up on our marriage. I love him after all of this and am willing to fight for this marriage but he seems like he just wants me to change because he isn’t willing to care and I am tired of living his way. Does anyone have any suggestions=????

A: i understand you want to make your marriage work but you are going to drive yourself crazy trying to fix your marriage if hes not helping. marriage means two people. i would suggest that you separate for a while. not a divorce but thins way you can get your head on straight work on your marriage and still have a shelter to run to when it becomes unbearable. i strongly believe in marriage and no divorce but you have to think about yourself also. if not your going to go crazy. so please take some time for yourself then get your own place to be you and be free and work on your marriage little by little. hope this helps….

Broken Hearted and Need some More Advice?

Q: I need some advice and understanding on how to get over someone that did something so cruel. I was married for 4 years, yes a little rocky, I never hit her or anything like that, her family and I did not get along. She has narcolepcy and we moved to chicago where my family is from florida. Then one day came and I was rushed to the emergency room and they found I had a brain anurisym and it was starting to rupture. They told me I needed emergency surgery but being that my wife had narcolepcy, I didnt want her to come back and forth from the hospital and with no help. I was worried about her, so I discharged myself from the hospital against the doctors orders and drove her and myself back to florida, where she has family and I was made to believe that we would have more help there. Her sister recently divorced and was texting her alot telling her she wished that my wife was single so they could have it like it was long ago, by going out and big plans. Anyways 3 days before my surgery in florida, she left me. I went and had surgery and when I got back home, I was served with a restraining order and then on christmas eve divorce papers. I am back in chicago now and doing better. They gave me a 5% chance to live and I did it fully and 100% perfect. But I am so missing her and cant get her out of my mind and I dont know what to do anymore because I know she wasnt right. I sit here feeling worhtless, I put on some weight because I wasnt able to do anything for the last 8 months while recovering. I sit on the computer hoping she comes on on emails me or calls and nothing. Please give me advice, I feel so lost without her even though all she did. I know there are two sides to every story and I was not perfect. But I always took care of her and I always provided for her and I always loved her. I put my own life on the line to make sure she was safe and back home incase something happened to me. Now she doesnt ever call, she changed all her numbers, she emailed me once telling me to move on with my life. I never hit her, yes I did call her some names in times of heated fights of hurt. But even if I wasnt inlove with someone or we grew apart, never would I leave someone I once loved like I was left. Am I wrong for still loving her and missing her? I am so down in the dumps and my life really feels over. Nothing makes me happy anymore, I sit here all day and night wishing, praying and hoping for a mirracle and people think Im nits because the way she left me and then to do all she did while I was trying to recover. I never got a normal clear chance to recover. It was and still is the hardest thing I have ever been through and all alone to boot. I undersatnd all you all are saying and I thank you, but it is so hard for me, she never gave me any type of closure that I so desperatly need. After all to me she was my wife, my life, my world and my love. I put my life on the line for her to not even look back and do this, who could do this to another person, I will never understand. By the way I am now 41

A: You have every right to miss her and love her. I understand that no matter how someone has treated you, you can’t fall out of love with them overnight. Apparently, she had no feelings for you at all. She is not worth agonizing over. I would call and ask her those questions you need answered in order to move forward. She may not give you those answers but it is worth a try. Don’t sit at home and grieve over a love that was one sided. Take baby steps to recover. Go out and occupy your time. This will give you less time to think about her. As time goes by, it will become easier and one day you will find someone that will love you in return.

By the way I am now 41. I was also wondering does Karma really happen????? I am just curious seeing the way she left me and carried on with her life between her and her sisters fun and games and to act like I never meant anything at all. And to think I was her husband and to me that meant the world.Wisen smart, to be honest with you, it sounds like you have had some men issues to say anything like that about my situation. The restraining order was placed because her family told her to make a restraining order or they would disown her, second of all at court it got dropped because she lied about everything to get the temporary injunction. But thanks for the advice. LOL

A: You have to face the fact that you blew it and must take full responsibility for the consequences. Once you learn that, you will be o.k.For some reason I do not feel sorry for you. In order for a woman to place a restraining order, you must have really mentally abused her which is as bad and as painful as a beating. A woman just does not leave overnight because she was on the rag. You said it yourself, there is always two sides to each coin and you are showing your side only.
