Go to Work and Never Come Home

A personal story in the experience: I Sometimes Wish I Could Just Run Away
I swear, one of these days I'm gonna leave for a sales trip and not come home. If not for my son right now, I think I already would have. Sick and tired of feeling trapped. Something has to change.

I can certainly relate to this. If not for my kids I wouldn't be here.

I ask myself what I would honestly do if I didn't have children and the answer is always the same....I too, wouldn't be here.

Same here feelingroovy....I stayed because of my son and finally....my husband left...I would have never sent him out on the streets but I was soooo relieved when he finally left....my son is a teenager now and understands so he wasn't hurt from the split...his dad calls him frequently, in fact he talked to him today (he lives in another state now)...I have to respect my husband for waiting to leave until my son was old enough to handle it...that's probably all the respect I'll offer to him though LOL!! ;-) ~wink~

Afterall, they are the ones most affected by a split. Now my boy is also old enough and understands too. I'ts almost funny, as last week he told me he does'nt know how and why I stayed with mom this long.

Count me in...Rio sounds great! The sooner...the better. I've had enough winter.

Done with the yelling and screaming.....now it's the quiet with sarcastic smart *** remarks which is just as bad...I agree.
I have a great relationship with my 18 yr old. Luckily he understands how I'm trapped with his mom. We talk about learning from my mistakes. I just wanna get him through college.
Thanks for the comment Sunny..(that's better)
