    Yea, add me as another one of the many who has to do this. :(

    My wife and I have grown apart significantly in the past month and we now have to decide how to split everything up in an amicable fashion. We have a 2 and a half year old son and an 11 year old daughter (actually my step-daughter). Our wedding anniversary was this past May 30 and marked 5 years.

    2011 will be the year that goes down as killing me - I get laid off at the end of January, go 6 months without a job (have one now, teaching school), and now I am getting a divorce. Little wonder that I got put on a prescription for Zanax and Lexapro...

    Thanks guys. I have been doing some research and I have come to the conclusion that I have a mild case of Asperger's Syndrome and my wife may have Borderline Personality Disorder. Needless to say if you know anything about these 2, you know they are NOT a good match.

    I can go on and on about the problems but let's just say that we were just NOT compatible. I will always have a relationship with her because she is the mother of my son. I just want to focus on doing well in my new teaching job and being the best dad I can be to my son.

    I would not count on me getting married - probably ever again. Thanks for the prayers as I will need them.

    Well I suspected she has but of course, I have no proof. But trust me, moe, I had checked out mentally and emotionally back around my birthday. I could try to get a private investigator but I don't have the money nor the time to deal with it. I am just done with the fighting and ready to move on with my life.

    That sucks, from everything you ever said about her she sounded kind of unworthy of your massive music collection.

    Haha, yea she had no appreciation for Animal Collective or Radiohead. I did buy 2 tickets to a Maroon 5/Train concert in August back in late May. :eek:

    Maybe I will put those tickets on ebay. :p ;)

    Believe me, I am one of the last people who want to do this. However, with the stress of losing a job, going unemployed for 6 months, starting a new job and career, and now having to divorce, I have had enough stress to kill 3 horses.

    I have not even begun to prepare for my classes this upcoming fall and school starts August 5. The drugs will help me not to be consumed by this. The ironic thing is my doctor is going through the same damn thing - except it is with his 2nd wife and he was married to her for 23 years! :eek:

    Manny,

    It will all work out, and you just concentrate on being the best dad and teacher you can be....sometimes we marry the wrong people.
