    Hi ES,

    I wrote you pm, but never heard back from you so I feel you must be doing better. I agree w/doofdaddy. If your fiance and you don't agree on MAJOR things like: budgeting your monies, child rearing, morals, goals in life you WILL be in for a lot of arguments and heartaches. I know that you had mentioned that you would love to have another child in this marriage. PLEASE PLEASE make sure you are making the right decision now with the marriage. Things will not change after the ceremony. I'm sure you've got advice. Please think about the advice you might not agree with as others sometimes can see what our hearts won't let us. Know what I mean? juni

    Hello Everyone

    This is my first post and I am a long time lurker. I felt compelled by the topic to share my story. I found coolhand's comments very similiar to my experience. So here we go.

    My partner was responsible for showing me the "truth" about the "truth". And for this I feel an incredible amount of gratitude and attachment. Did I really know her before we were married? Not well enough, but I personally do not think that anyone can completely understand another person. We are all different and it is about realizing we do not understand and how we deal with that.

    Once her son decided that he did not want his mother to be married any longer it has been a spiral downward to the end. I realize now I did not know her as well as i though I did and I have learned things about myself. Now that things have come to an end I am confronted more and more with thinking about how the "truth" has caused so much pain in my life, for me and my family.

    I do not know that I have expressed myself well here. But I have relied on this site for support in the past, just by reading everyone else's thoughts. For that I am very thankful. I hope to interact more with the wonderful people that post here and learn.

    It's about wanting to understand it, I agree.
