Question - (4 January 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 5 April 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Hi there, i've been married for 3 years and after talking to my single friends I realise i'm missing out on so much fun, should I carry on with my husband or divorce him. My friends say my husband will probably leave the house to me thus ensuring there is as little upheaval as possible to our children, it sounds like I can't lose. Can you see any pitfalls?

Thanks Debbie

You obviously don't give a monkeys about you husband and family so they are probably better off without you. I say leave before you do any more damage.

Lets say you leave your husband for that bit of fun. In three months time those same friends may have settled down and started families of there own. What then?

You need to take a hard look at what you have. Who says married people cant still have fun. Of course you can. You need to drop those friends and look at ways of enriching your and your families life.

Try not to be so self centred and dont rush into instant decisions that are sure to back fire. Good luck!

Serinity agony auntWow, are you serious? Why did you even marry him in the first place? Certainly you can't be in love with him or you wouldn't even be suggesting something so ignorant. You're married with children and you are whining about missing out on having fun and being single. Look, you made the decision to get married and have children and that's a serious life changing committment. Now you are questioning your marriage and the welfare of your children because you want to hang out with your friends and have fun? Do you even care about the harm this will cause to your family, especially your children? Do you care if your kids grow up without any morals? They're going to learn from you, you know. I think you've got deeper issues to deal with here then you are aware of. You shouldn't be questioning if you should divorce your husband because you want to go out and have fun, but you should be questioning if you truly love him or not. You got yourself into this situation and your reasons for wanting out are selfish and immature. If going out with your single friends and having fun is more important than the family that you've established then you will probably end up lonely and miserable. Put your children before your wants and see if that changes your mind any. Whew!
