 It is always over the same thing.........money. We have cut back in alot of ways to save. We now have cable, phone, and internet in one. We keep the thermostat down. But his darn truck is always needing something, I did not say a word about it. He has been working on it in the garage. I wish he would just move in there! He has a wood burner in there. Sometimes I think I would be alot happier alone. I pray that things get better. I am still waiting for my SSI.

Thanks all, At this point, it can't get worse~
Heather C. Nov 12, 2008, 3:57pm EST
I'm sorry things are bad right now. Things will get better though. My husband has been "weird" lately too. Maybe it's the change of the seasons? Good luck to both of you.

Sorry you are fighting with your hubby about money. My hubby and I fight about money to.
I was denied my disiblity and now have to start the process all over. The year I was in between insurance and not getting any doctors care really hurt me. Oh well. I can't change the past.

I hope you get yours soon.
DIANE D. Nov 12, 2008, 4:04pm EST
Thanks, Mini, I am still without medical also. He actuallly told me to go find a job to buy CHRISTMAS! Two of my children are not his. I am finding it really hard to forgive him for this. He knows I can not work. He can sleep in the garage tonight.!
Valerie Roars Nov 12, 2008, 4:14pm EST
Hugs.
Diane, I hear ya! I wish mine would live in the garage too since he spends so much time in there! We are always fighting about money or this or that lately-I agree it must be the weather changing! MEN!!! LOL!!
Heather C. Nov 12, 2008, 4:35pm EST
well, if this is about men changing because of the weather, there sure are going to be a lot of cold men in garages.

Sorry to hear you are having such a tough time,
hope things get better soon.
I've been there and it's not easy in a relationship, you have to decide
why you are there, and if you want to stay.
DIANE D. Nov 12, 2008, 7:46pm EST
Thanks, Jean

shot the truck and put it out of its misery. Used to have cars like that. We got new one when my wife got some money.

I have been sleeping on the couch for 3 weeks, I am having my son help me move my dresser into the dining room today,
DIANE D. Nov 13, 2008, 9:13am EST
Things are gettting worse, I am standing up this time, Name calling is just as bad as getting hit.

Diane, it is. My ex was extremely bad about that. Will your husband talk to you about this?
DIANE D. Nov 13, 2008, 9:45am EST
yes, but he just calls me more names
Dawn S. Nov 13, 2008, 10:31am EST
*hugs. sorry it's so rough for you.
Heather Schultz Nov 13, 2008, 3:20pm EST
Just try to remember the reason why you two got together, then married, and then had beautiful children. You love each other, this too shall pass.

Sandy (back in Ohio...blah!) Nov 13, 2008, 3:38pm EST
I am sorry your husband is being such a jerk about it. My husband has gotten alot better since we moved away from across the street from his parents. I do hope things get better for you. If anything use your points on Gather to get somethingfor the kids. heck, with getting him anything. I wish you and your family the best of luck.

Kimber L. Nov 26, 2008, 12:42pm EST
I hope things get better for you soon!! HUGS
Amy C. Nov 26, 2008, 12:45pm EST
He has to have respect for you, if he is not showing respect for you and wanting to work it out I am sorry.

Name calling is abuse. I never resort to that ( unless I am thinking it to myself ) Words hurt.

Hugs Diane I hope things get better. Life is too short to not love every minute of it.
Beverly P. Nov 27, 2008, 12:56am EST
You're not alone. That is just a part of marriage. Times are tuff right now too, so it doesn't help! You're in my prayers!

paying it forward
as we "Gatherers" do
just wanting to shout
as I'm passing thru!
Nick Howes Jan 15, 2009, 11:53am EST
Here's 10 towards your next cash-out.
Elizabeth S. Feb 11, 2009, 7:05pm EST
That seems to be something most husbands and wives do from time to time. This, too, will pass.
Nancy Biri Feb 18, 2009, 3:08pm EST
