chris27292729: I think "lankycrewman" is your man,he is good with someone's else children,i suggest the 2 of you join forces.-
HAHA! You are funny
Thank you, yes, it is good to see a man who raised someone elses children, I think that shows a lovely heart (depending on whether he raised them with an iron fist and the steel capped boots of course)
Thanks for your sharing your feelings. It is a sad and too often a common occurrence in relationships that break apart.
Sometimes "paying ones way" in life means putting in the service to the family which is not accounted for in monetary ways. Making, keeping a family together is WORK - and often unpaid work and often it is the female in the family that does it. And it does not count that someone "takes out the garbage" once a week or mows the lawn as contributing to the work of keeping a family together.
When you become a family there is no such thing as your money and her money it is all family money - and those children became your children 22 years ago when you married for better or worse.
It is real sad to find after 22 years of family to feel you were not valued.... I hope you find the love you need again soon. All the best.
lankycrewman: I wonder when will people tell the truth about themselves. I have been on many dating sites, and all I have found is people who can not tell about themselves or the truth. I have met scammers, clingers, and just people who are just out to take your hard earned working money.
They have come for different parts of the world to sites like this, and they just want your money.
I work hard for what I have and work just as hard to keep it but then one day you think the time is right for that special someone and then you get married. Years of being together, then you find out all they want is your money and not you. They want it to give to who ever they want and especially their children, which none of them are yours.
I was married for 22 yrs, raised children who were not mine, but from 4 previous marriages and all she wanted and wants is my money, because she was and is too lazy to get out and get an education and a job.
Some people say that I am too hard, but I work for my money to pay my way, and I expect the same from my mate, they do not have to make the same as I do but at least try to met me somewhere in the middle.
Gee, I date a LOT and I cant say Ive ever given ANY money to a date
