My H just got back from travelling to see the OW-from Washington to Kansas. When he left, he wasn't working and took money from my bank account thru my debit card, borrowed money from his mom and sister saying it was for me, and then lied further by telling me his paycheck hadn't come. As a parent trying to support two children, I was absolutely furious at his neglect of his family. That was it! I left a nasty message on his voice mail/cell phone saying that he better stay in Kansas because he wouldn't have a vehicle to drive up here (I was paying for it for my H). I repossessed his truck and signed it over to my father. My H obviously didn't think I would do it. When he got back, he was FURIOUS! I had to stand up to him though or he would keep walking over me. Now I'm actually a little scared for what he may do. Help!

He's taking things from you and his children! Your right about not letting him walk on you any more......does he think about how many meals he could have provided for your children in his trip.... NOT... Do what you need to do to protect you and the kids... You need to this first and formost!!! I'm praying for you... Stay focused!<P>cozy

Thank you, fellow Washingtonian. Actually I'm a little scared of what he may do. He has absolutely nothing to lose right now and I'm afraid he may try to take the kids or flat my tires. Probably not, but I'm a little scared to go to sleep tonight.

lock your doors....and sleep well.... flat tires are not a BIG deal... $2.00 per tire to fix a hole... woopie... dont sweat the little stuff! (my friend told me that today too) Anyway, I know that My H also gets riled and I get all worried, but when I think of each thing in the light of truth, they aren't worth loosing sleep over! <P>If your H can't afford a trip to OW, how can he even think of taking care of a family... I think our H's don't realize how much they depend on us to do all the responsible duties, and make it all work out smooth... They would if they ever took the kids for a week without our help... I actually could laugh thinking of this scene after about 48 hours... stress and disaster... I'd have them back in no time at all!!!<P>cozy<p>[This message has been edited by used2Bcozy (edited November 09, 1999).]
