Jake,<BR>Glad to see you back. I was wondering about you.<BR>It is true that I don't understand and I can only imagine the pain and sorrow that you are feeling right now. I know that withdrawl from the OP can be a very hard thing. There are many here who gone through it and have emerged on the other side feeling whole again. I hope some of them respond to you and let you know that it doesn't go on forever(even though it feels like it will).<BR>As for the children thing, I wish I could offer you some sort of advice in that direction. Not knowing the whole story as to why your W can't have kids makes it difficult. Is an operation posible? What about adoption? Or even foster children? For some people the last 2 options have been very rewarding. Does your W know how much you really desire to have a family? This could fall into one of your most important emotional needs. It is a decision that has to be made together because it will affect you both for the rest of your lives.<BR>Talk to her, share with her and love her.<BR><P>------------------<BR>Love and Prayers<BR>Nicole smile

is the problem that you have with your wife that you love the OW or that your wife can't have kids? Are you thinking of having children with OW? Help us understand why you feel you went to OW.

jake/36,<P>If you would like to carry on the line, then you can adopt. You could solve many problems by doing so. Let me list a few of them.<P>1) A child that would not have a good home will have one.<P>2) You wife who probably feels the lose of not being able to have children more than you, would have a child to share with you.<P>3) You could help make your wife very happy by being a father to the child she could have naturally, but has now.<P>4) You can make sure the family name is carried on, although I warn you that tradition seems to be slipping fast.<P>5) You just might just find out that being a father with your wife is far more rewarding than any of the alternatives that you have chosen so far.<P>Not a complete list but something to think about. If what you have said on this thread is true, then this is a win-win-win situation. A child is given a family, your wife wins, and you win.<P>Think about it.<P>God Bless,<P>JL
