I met my husband when I was 18 in a chat room. I am 25 now. I am not happy. My sister is engaged to a rich guy and my husband works from home. Its hard to make ends meet. All the money goes in bills. I save all I can. I cant remember the last time I got a hair cut or went to the beauty salon. My parents could provide for me better than he can. Well, I dont expect him to provide for me because only his sister knows we are married. His family does not!
We got married because he had been stalling getting married to me and my parents kept doing him favours and were asking me constantly when we would get married. So just to humour them we had a civil wedding. Yea thats right.. a girl thinks of getting married all her life I dint even have a decent wedding forget a dream wedding!
So, I was looking at this laptop today. This really tiny laptop, loved it. Really wanted it. He said if you want somthing earn money to get it. I have never ever gotten a decent present from him. My whole life is a joke. People say you cant choose your parents but you can choose your husband....I made the wrong decision, dint I?
You hook up with a guy in a chatroom, and basically marry him to humor your parents? Couldn't you have started smaller on the rebelling stage? Like getting a nose ring or something?
I agree that there is something goofy in that he hasn't told his family about you and the "Marriage" - he is either young or older and hoping to cash in when they kick it sounds like to me, but YOU sound like the kind of fem that gives the rest of us a bad name.
You are bitching because you want a RICH guy? Why not just cut to the chase and start working the streets? You obviously don't care about a guy other than for the bulge he has in his pants - meaning his wallet.
Here's a thot: Tell you husband (he IS your husband) that marraige is a commitment and that you have needs - work together. For Your lives.
Ether that or divorce the poor fellow, Anna Nicole, and find some guy who can treat you like the trophy you apparently want to be.
So mad I can hardly type.

Lets see now - you are on a public access forum, where good advice is hard to come by, you (apparently) don't tell the whole story and then lash out when people give their opinions and advice to what you DO post?
Forget the divorce, princess, you need some therapy. You have issues.
Tobra - IIN Longtimer
You got yourself where your at, and if you can't deal with it get a divorce! Yeah do him a favor.
Miss Oct- I hope you end up with no one coz anyone who gets married to you will end up killing himself anyway!
WHORE BITCH!! DIE AND ROT IN HELL!!
if you want a rich guy, divorce your husband and go for a rich guy. it's your life, do what you want to do, and good luck to you.
She's plastered this over half a dozen or more posts and is comming unhinged. - Methinks that we've seen the last of her, though I hope she seeks therapy.
Tobra
GET OFF YOUR A.S.S AND GET A F-KEN JOB , THIS IS 2008 BE A INDEPENDENT WOMAN ..
YOU WANT RICH MAN , GOT GIVE SOME PUSSY FOR THAT BABES!!!!
Girl, get a divorce and move on. This person will never change, I promise you. Get out, live your dreams, write about them, explore the world, yourself, good people...get out of this marriage...believe me, when you are happy with a man because he really wants YOU, then you wont notice such things as little money and hard times so much.
I read your post and wanted to say what I think but now that I've read those gems, there's no need to waste words I reckon.
It sums it up.
We don't hate you and, um, even if I happened to, I wouldn't go and say (citing) "w**** b**ch!! DIE AND ROT IN HELL!!"
But I think there is loads wrong with your marriage. First, you don't love each other. Second, you married him for the sole two reasons of not slightly ruining the hopes of his parents you didn't even know and to be pampered by someone you, I take it, didn't believe to be getting any richer than he was in the near future. The marriage was a farse.
And all you want off of any type of marriage is to be (citing) "a lil mollycoddled and pampered by the person who claims to love me".
Well, yes, to a certain extent that's nice. But na-ah. You also state he has to be rich and all in all, give the impression he should give rather more than "a lil".
Now please DO give me any reasons to demand another human being pays for your haircuts, manicures and shoes when you can't even offer love in return.
You were 18 when you met? Now honestly, did you really age?
Let us know when you at least reach the Victorian state of mind. x
Like me or hate me - and if ya stick around long enough I'm sure you'll do both - I at least Try to give a fair view of things.
Melissa...she is gone, but I do hope she's gotten therapy, and whatever she wants/deserves.
As for you, Elise, you strike me as someone with a good head on her shoulders. I can't promise to always agree with ya, if you post here for any length of time, but I will always treat you with respect.
Tobra Marie :)
Ok, well ... I might've been a bit funny. I like to take it out on my keyboard.
Miss October, I like the way you write. Almost like - Simon Cowell? Lol. You're welcome and it's ok if we don't always agree. I have a knack for opinionated characters. :D
Lotofjunk, you stalker! (Kidding.) I admit it's a kiss but I really just use it as a sort of personal signature.
PoolTOY. You were bothered to read my post right to the end weren't you. I'm flattered.
Erm I'm not saying anything. :D Lol. xxx
yes. i could not tear my eyes away until I'd read every word. :D
but are you just regretting it cause he can't get you a boquet of roses everyday? or are you bored with HIM and not his lack of money?
Hm hm. Is that in a good way then ? x
Sorry, I am used to people being sarcastic. I do wonder why. Lol.
Well then, I will hopefully see you around. You thought of a fascinating nickname, might I add. x
about being sarcastic - i was being a little sarcastic in my response. but i'm not being sarcastic when i say i like your style. (:D
Not hard to believe, if you've ever been to the liverpool train station.
I have.
OMB
not hard to believe if you know spam.
There IS a reason why brothers and sisters shouldn't marry.
T-to the-O-to the B.R.A.
When I have issues, I hope you give me Tobra-therapy.
with regards,
Michael
marriage should be taken more seriously, marriage isn't just about you, it's about the both of you.
ask yourself: if you divorce him, will you be any better off then you are now?
and really think about it, in every aspect.
i think you could make this work, even if you're struggling ends meat.
You really need to re-examine your values. Stop comparing your life with your sisters, who seems to have all the riches. If you want to compare, look at the families where husbands beat their wives and children, molest them, and terrorize them on a daily basis.
You need to do your part and go out and buy what you want. No more waiting for your hun to come home and bring it to you. Stop placing these expectations on him and you will be happier. Go out and earn a wage. It will also take your mind off self-pity.
Hit me up! :P
But he's not ready either - won't even tell his parents?
You both made a mistake from the sounds of it. And so what if you've both made a mistake? Move on. Marriage can work later but you've both got some growing up.
Or do you love this guy?
~Peace~
The idiocy from you radiates throughout your comment so it's really difficult for me to be nice, knowing that you're a gold-digger and a loser.
You married some nigga who you met in an internet chatroom because he made money, and you didn't? Have you EVER made any smart decisions in your life?
You should've stayed with your parents.
Get a divorce, relinquish your selfisness, learn that the world doesn't revolve around you, marry somebody because you love him, not because of his salary.
You should stop moaning and GET A JOB. Are you just going to sit still, letting a guy 'provide' (vomits a little in mouth) for you?
Sorry, I am just not impressed. 100% Not normal IMHO. If he was my brother, I'd tell him to kick your butt! I'd consider myself lucky. Do you even know the value of the dollar? Mini laptops are expensive!
I'm sorry if I sound very harsh right now, but you should NOT rely on a guy financially. Not EVER. What will you do when you have accustomed to a certain lifestyle and he cheats on you with some chick and files for divorce? It will be so hard for you to adapt to a lower single income. It will be so very hard for you to start working againm because you are not used to it. You are still young, but you have to work to beef up your CV. You have to work and study as much as you can while you are still young.
Seriously, get a carreer and reward yourself by buying that laptop from your own money. It's very unfair of you to judge your guy when he's trying to make ends meet. You should marry someone because you love him. I can imagine it's hard to see your sister buying all these great things but honestly there's more to life than just money. You don't make out with your bank account.
Just my 2p.
Telling people to die? Are you an idiot?
Why the hell would you even submit your story in the first place if you're going to be bitching at other's opinions. They're at least trying to help you. (which is what you need) All "Miss Oct" ever did was write what was right, you're just mad 'cause you know it's true.
Obviously you don't know what the fuck you're doing.
And to be honest I feel sorry for you. I honestly can say you're never going to find "the one".
I hope you do end up in the streets.
So basically her own mentality goes completely against the chances of actually meeting a rich man and to keep him.
A good lesson for her would be to meet a rich man, sign a prenup which leaves her with nothing if they divorce, they then marry, then he would notice her lazyness, and then dump her. Leaving her with nothing as the prenups stated.
After reading her first post, I wasn't surprised to see how negative was her replies toward the comments of others. And if people agrees with her, this is a sad world.
It's unfortunate for her husband that he doesn't notice it, because not only would I divorce from her, but I would fight as much as can so she gets what she deserves, which seems...it's nothing.
Also, I know plenty of people on here are telling you to get a divorce, but you won't do it. You won't do anything. You are just here to get someone to pity you so you can feel better. You're not going to get that from me.
You are 25, and you talk as if you can't support yourself. WTF!? You shouldn't need your husband OR your parents to support you at that age. Pathetic.
Most importantly, THAT'S WHAT YOU GET for being an idiot. People rush into marriage all the time. Then they are unhappy, they end up getting hurt or hurting someone else. Think before you make a major decision. I don't understand how someone can stay in a shitty relationship, let alone make it worse by marrying that person. This doesn't sound like it started out great, it sounds like you were young and dumb, (still dumb, not so young anymore) and made a stupid choice. FIX IT YOUR DAMN SELF.
Take a minute to think about this fact: people with lots of money are NOT any happier than people with moderate amounts of money. In fact, rich people kill themselves more often than middle class people. Assuming you have enough to have your basic needs met, additional money will not make your life any more satisfying.
That being said, I'm sure you disagree with me, which is fine. So you should carefully analyze your next step. First determine if you are attractive enough to dupe a rich man who is as superficial as you into marriage. Be objective when thinking about these factors: do you have a nice figure, what do you weight, is your face pretty, are you at least college educated, what is your IQ? The higher you rate on these questions, the more likely your superficial needs will best be served by divorcing your poor husband and finding some rich guy who wants nothing more than a trophy wife to spend money on.
Unfortunately for you, my impression is that you are not very intelligent. The combination of low intelligence and rampant superficiality is harsh, because you likely will not be able to devise a master plan whereby you can leech off of a man's hard work, much less effectively pull the plan off.
My advice: start doing something useful with your time so you develop some self confidence. Read Atlas Shrugged, procure a meaningful job, do volunteer work, or even just exercise regularly; these steps will help you begin to feel like you are worth something and will lessen your tendency to rely on material things to fill the void within. Best of luck.
did you think he was gunna chnage, and gett moneyy?
money shouldnt be tht important to you, to divorce.
if there isnt love, divorce before kids come into the picture.
GET A DIVORCE and move on. Try to learn something from this and don't repeat it.
poor you, not going to the salon in so long, your life fucking sucks i guess. the toughest times in our lives help bring out who we really are, and you're showing everyone that the real you is selfish, materialistic, and bitchy.
you ARE 25 after all, you still your entire life in front of you.
that aside, I'm not going to call you a money loving whore because I don't know you well enough, but I really REALLY hope you have more than just that reason for leaving him.
lots of people do stupid shit, like getting married young, and lots of people have amicable ends to those kinds of relationships. if you try talking to him about it instead of posting it on a anon-site like this you'd get more sympathy.
-cheers, ricky
Any way if you wanna dump him, do it. Don't let a guy hold you down making you unhappy, when you should be living life.
You only have it once ya know ;)
----------------------
WILL YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU WHINNY, UNGREATFUL BITCH.
There, let me explain. ANything worth having in life is worth working hard for and I am taking a tax preparers class so I don't have to work in a factory until I am forty. I am busting my ass and I know anything WORTH having doesn't come free or cheap.
My girlfriend is a cow but I love her and I accept her. YOU on the other hand want nothing but free stuff and are unwilling to work for ANYTHING. Just because you are a girl does NOT mean you are entitled to anything GIVEN to you, you have to EARN it.
GET OFF YOUR ASS AND GO TO SCHOOL. IF YOU WANT TO BE RICH, THEN BECOME RICH BY YOUR OWN FUCKING MERITS!!!! Lastly, rich guys aren't great guys, I know, my family is rich and I don't like them. You will lose the few things you like for money and money goes easily, a decent person in your life with a good heart is very hard to come by.
Either way, it will be a huge pain to get out of so just work hard on yourself and become a better person, yourself. You want that laptop, earn it or find it on eBay and get it that way. Like I stated before, anything worth having is worth working hard for and this is something you truly never grasp.
