I met my husband at work


I don't think I would ever say we had a good marriage or even that we had what my idea of marriage was suppose to be. Things just got worst over time.


I thought I knew my husband even though we dated for a short period of time. I thought that he was a genuinely good person that would do anything to make me happy. I was wrong. When I took my vows and had kids my life change and I realized that my life was no longer just my own. He stayed consumed with what was his and he could do for his own life.


I could fuss and gripe but it does not do any good. We have seperated once before and it was terrible for me and him. But I felt it needed to be done so he could get a glimpse of life without me. He was depressed and so was I. I was just too busy to show it. Ultimately, either I have not done enough or there is nothing that can be done.


My greatest fear is tainting my children. I don't want any decision I or my husband makes to negatively effect my children lives. I know from my own parents that divorce is ugly. My parents marriage was better than my own so I can't imagine what our will be like.  


Get to know each other as well as possible. There is no rush to get married. Take your time. Don't settle just because you think that this is the best your going to do. If he/she is not what your looking for keep your eyes and options open.
