    • About Me

      Went through a rough emotional divorce after 38 years. I Didn’t want it …she did . Divorced in March of this year (2009), but was dealing with it for two years. I’m much better now with little spurts Of crying and feeling sad , nothing like it was… I’m ok and doing well now ! Also have some medical problems that seem to be ok for now. So, I’m thankful of that. Also dealing with a little PTSD from Nam . The divorce brought it all out. Never thought much about it until then . I think that it had a lot to do with my marriage over the years. I had all the symptoms, but never recognized them . I look back now at all the negative things I did in my life with a different understanding of them now. Anyway…Bla , bla , Bla… I have two beautiful grandchildren and they are a big part of my life including my son and his wife. Al in al……I think that I’m doing pretty good considering what I have been through. My Faith in God is more powerful then it’s ever been ! Take care Bob

      I hope to use everything that I’ve learned and been through in the last two years to try to help others. I also want to do some volunteer work . I was a General contractor for 30 years , so I want to use that skill to help others that are less fortunate. Maybe through the church ! I still enjoy my son , his wife and my two beautiful Grandchildren . I’m also thinking of going fishing again . I gave it up about 10 years ago. I also like gardening . Can’t do much now because the house is up for sale. Tried the dating thing and it’s not for me right now. I would like to meet someone someday , but she would really have to be special . I don’t want to get into the having a different girl every night , week …. I don’t think that’s to good. Thanks for reading this … God Bless. Bob

      Thank you for the wonderful encouraging words. I know that God will take care of it all. He has a plan for each and every one of us. I just have to have patience, and faith. I just hope things change for the better soon as it's so frustrating, and painful. Your kind words do let me know I'm not alone.

      Treatments

      Forgiveness Working / Worked
      Sometimes things in life just happen. To come to understand that helped. Hate is not the answer, it's the distroyer !
      Leave Not Working
      Just missed her and the house. I don't know whta best here..staying or leaving...they both hurt.
      Love Somewhat Helpful
      When one looses the love. It's hard to do anything to make them see it again. I keep trying anyway..Hoping that she wakes up and sees some light. Maybe not the love again, but some compassion and understanding feelings thta I'm going through.
      Music Not Working
      Just brought back to many memories. Best to listen to ocean sounds..waves... birds...Raining and thunder... Not sad songs !
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      Went to a hospital for depression and deal with the divorce for 5 weeks. Learned so much on how to deal with feelings and emotion and many other things. One of the best programs thta I have ever been in. If you have the opertunity to go to one....GO !
      Support from Friends & Family Not Working
      Friends kind of get tired of hearing about your problems...Some avoid you completly. Family is good of course ,but they also get tired of hearing you and they have thier own lives to lead. Nice to talk to ,but don't over do it.
      Support Groups Considering
      They say thta it's good to meet others with sort of the same problem..I'm going to try it soon.
      Talking Working / Worked
      Always worked with me. I a;ways felt better to tell someone...The problem is who !!! I found some on-line churches thta I could call.
      Time Working / Worked
      It gets a little easier as time goes on wit hset backs that come and go. The crying doesn't last as long.
