what have I done              Reply to this Comment

I am 24 and I was in a relationship for seven years (16-23) I broke up with him a year ago and it seems like since then I have screwed everthing up in my life. Before I left him I had gotten a Associates degree and was a hard worker. Now I am addicted to cocaine and am failing out of college. I don't want to do anything and it is hard to even get out of bed. I contemplate suicide, I feel like I have screwed everything up and when I try to fix things they just get worse. I have lost all my friends and I am in a meaningless relationship now because I am afraid to be alone. I can't seem to keep my life together I am afraid all the time that the people I have left in my life will see me for the fuck up I am. I just don't have the energy to try anymore it seems like there is no use in trying to live life.

you got ur associates degree, you're in college, that says something about you. you have the right idea but are caught up on some obstacles, like coke. my advice to you is to 1st..stop using coke. STOP. you don't need it. don't buy it and stay away from your friends that use it. 2nd, talk to ur professors and see what then can do to help you. explain that you have been going through a really hard period in your life and you want to imporve your grades and yourself, what can you do to make that happen. see if you can make up old assignments or retake tests or do any extra credit. 3rd...don't give up! you're young and have so much ahead of you. there will be another guy..definitely..and that relationship will be better. your life is a gift from god...ppl have so many worse problems. you have ur health, friends, family, youth, have fun and make the best of life. getting high all the time wont do it. go outside ona nice day and just embrace everything. you can change your life...it all...and you'll feel better then ever. if u want pro help...go to ur school's counseling center. it's usually free

As for families being torn apart. I have peace, even though my family is disfunctional and a mess. I believe that this is why we are to look to God as our main father..for he is eternal and all others will fail you or forsake you. Hope this is encouraging to all !!!

Have you ever walked through a forest in the dark? you would truely slip and fall down. Would you just lay there and wait to be eaten by a forest creature? Probably not! Then walk in the light. You think everyone sees you and your faults...There is a Unconditional Love from God who sees you pure and perfect. Everyone falls, fails and screws up their lives! No one is perfect! Focus on why you are here...not why you should not be here!

Let him Go              Reply to this Comment

He should have married you. You say he was with you for ten years and he up and married someone else. it is a great possibility that the he had that someone all alone. You should not anyway shape form or fashion compromise your feelings and what he has put you through. It is obvious that he does not love you and you need to dump him because he is a looser. You have to love yourself first. Once you can do that then everything else will fall into place. Someone else will come along and you won't have to compromise and put up with unnecessary treatment that this man has put you through. Let him know how you feel and then let him go

Teenage Love              Reply to this Comment

You should not be talking to guys in the first place. You don't know what love is. You are a child. You need to be focusing on school. If you have develop being addicted to drugs and you are depressed, then you need to seek professional help fast. Trying talking to someone you can trust. Online dating and chating can lead to a dead end. You need to be concentrating on being a teenager and that is exactly what you are. Stay safe.

It is abusive to put yourself in a position to stay with someone that you do not trust from the start. You are young and you will discover that it is better to stay happy and alone with you child, than to get married and hate and regret it for the rest of your life. One day you will look up and really regret marrying the guy, and it will be 20 more years. Then you will feel like you shouda, couda, or wouda, done better by yourself.

Followed a man              Reply to this Comment

Isabella please do not follow this man to Alabama. I did that yes, I followed this guy to Alabama and took our baby and got beat for breakfast dinner and supper. I had to work very hard to get away from him. Finally, he put a 22 gage shot gun to my head and I prayed and told God if he let me live I would never go back. I left got saved ( called on Jesus ) and never went back. Trust in God to take care of you and never depend on a man to take care of you. You can make it for yourself. I did. Now my baby is finished with college and marrying a NFL star. Go somewhere and be happy. Go to schoo.

Crack addict husband              Reply to this Comment

I am married to a man that has after 24 years of marriage become a crack addict. He works and I work. We make good money. But lately all of the money we make extra to be saved for the childrens college for example is going to the crack man. I am tired of it and I want to divorce him, but I have been married to him for 24 years. What do I do and how do I do it?

Depressed, chronic liar              Reply to this Comment

Today I can say, I lost everything. Since Feb, my oldest daughter won't talk to me, let me see my grandson. Youngest daughter was coming around, but now I lost her. My husband has filed and unfiled for divorce..now divorce is back on. I'm 46, but since my Mom died, I have been trying to pull myself out of depression on my own. My husband of 28 yrs never has played attention to me, so last Feb, had an affair with someone I met online. Went to Vegas, met the guy who didn't realize it was same person who he had been having phone sex with for months earlier. He was in love with girl on other end of phone, but only slept with me...no feelings. Now I have a string of men from Nevada to Wyoming that love me,only not me...girl they think I am. After the affair my husband realized he was part to blame for lack of attention...our sex life got so great...but it wasn't enough. He installed web watcher on my computer to watch every email and IM..see every chat room I go in and what I say. He did this with my daughters present to show them what kind of women I am. They are disgusted with me and say I'm dead to them. I can't stop but need help. Called a call center today to get treatment/rehab options...lady was listening, understanding...gave me a few places to call but when the phone rang she abruptly hung up. I don't have a lot of money to spend on treatment, now going thru divorce the attorney will take what I have...but I do have insurance coverage until divorce is final. Where can I go?

dumped and depressed              Reply to this Comment

I was married for 20 years but my husband that i adored has ran off with someone 16 years younger than he. He has basically always cheated on me but wouldnt find out for years. most recently he told me he had a 6 year old son, and now has a girl friend. I know i sound pathetic but i have always loved this man since i was 18. should i wait and see if he recovers from love and sex addiction or just file for divorce. i am very dpressed even 4 months later. i am hopelessly commited but he is not. i never thought he would leave me and not care. i am very depressed.

L If it is a truly just a friend you chatted with, it should not mess up a good marriage. People are allowed to have friends throughout life. Anyone that says different should move away. Glad to hear of your move. Sorry for not seeing this earlier. JK

omg girl I know it's been a while since your listing,but I hope it's not too late.. You are so young,I'm sure you don't really know what love is yet.I've been there.I was in love with someone when I was a teen and it almost tore my family apart.Now I am thirty,married,and have 3 beautiful children.I know now that the love I felt so many years ago wasn't love it was a kind of obsession of some kind.I hope he is out of your head and you've moved on.just remember that there is someone out there who is rooting for you,and it's me. GOD BLESS!!!
