To everyone else....

+j+k++j+k+
in Blended Families

Thank you for the advice and support.

Again, I know it seems crazy I don't walk out the door right now, but now that my stepkids are out of the house and DH really does seem genuninely trying to make a change - I am going to allow him this one last chance. Yes. Again.

There is only one difference.  I never spoke of divorce before and I don't take it lightly.  I wouldn't even bring it up and I never would have gotten a family lawyer if I wasn't serious. It's time I get my life back and DD in a home that she deserves.  I'd like for that to be with DH, but I'm ready to accept that may never be the case. 

Thanks again for everything.

    See my reply below, this was my suggestion.  I genuinely believe you are no where near ready to leave him.

    I think you are incredibly strong.

    Im sorry. The only thing I can say is life is too short so make sure you're happy in the life you chose at least 80% of the time

    Im so sorry you're battling this. You know what is best for you and DD, Im sure whatever you decide will be right for you. Your SKs are a lot like my siblings in law. Everyone has taken all of them in. SIL1 and SIL2 are stable for the moment both semisupported by ILs but BIL is doing drugs, stealing from ILs and my DHs grandparents even. No one will take him in anymore everyone has had it. ILs finally let him sit in jail instead of bailing him out but he went back to his old ways. I wouldnt be able to deal with it and I admire you for dealing with it this long. Best of luck in your decision.

    j+k = I don't get on here much but I managed to skim through.

    I am not one to ever throw the D word around.  I have known you on the bump and through your posts for years.  I know you're committed and dedicated, etc... but I really do think your DH has the problem. You've said it yourself - he loves to "fix" people and take in strays. 

    I do think it's come down to the wire - and Tifanico said it perfectly.  If you're going to leave then that's it.  There's no threatening. 

    I wish you all the luck in the world - you're a very good person.  HUGS>
