I'm married for 3 1/2 years with my husband, his in military stationed in Texas..We have a total of 5 kids (1 step daughter, 2 daughters from my previous relationship and 2 more with my husband now) Im not a US citizen..Im currently in my home country and me and my husband ha vent seen each other for almost 2 year.. He ha vent finished my papers to go to the US yet and still in process..Im not really sure if he really wants me to go because most of the friends i know got to their families in the US not waiting for that long..Im not sure if i still want to continue this marriage..We only talk like once or twice a month..he even forget to call in special occasions.. its been really hard for me not to see my family complete, my kids lives with me and they re always asking me where their daddy's at.. and it breaks my heart not seeing them without a father..what should i do or what should i tell me husband??
of course i know his in military..we got married in japan where he was stationed its just bad that we didnt get to finished the paperwork there and upto now still waiting for it..i just dont know if he still feels the same 3 years ago..its just hard..

Wow, I hope that this is not a serious post!!! If it is, there is something really wrong with your marriage, are you sure your husband isn't out there re-married. It sounds to me like you don't even know who your married to. I think you need to call him and let him know that this isn't working and if he wants to stay married you want to move together, There is NO reason that your not out in Texas with your husband.... that is really weird... it sounds to be like your separated, not married!

I think you know the answer to your question! Its time for you to make moves in another direction. Honestly I would not be surprised if the guy isn't already married and in another relationship!

Tell him what you just told us. Tell him the arrangement is breaking the hearts of you and the children. If you're married I do not understand why you're not here in Texas especially since you have children. The law states clearly currently at least that you have a right to be here if you've got American children. So, come back to Texas and realize he may show up in your life and he may not but either way you'll be in a better place to succeed.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Texas!!!

There's too many kids involved, and all without a father. He's a military man. You know that's the life they lead as long as their enlisted or make a career out of it. How much longer will he be enlisted, or is this his career? I don't envy you, that's for sure. 5 kids and the man you love is not around (not by his choice, though, please understand that). Talk to him or expedite your legalization papers. There's got to be a way.

According research that first you divorce so it will be easy to decided to go divorce again.

My opinion try to keep patient and continuing you Rolfe with husband, but think zillion times to divorce again.

Kids are always be with their mother, slowly explain to them that their father on duty.

But so far, why your husband doesn't take you to his base to live together? Ask him!

If you can afford it.... Check up on him - but don't let him know u are coming.

Or get someone to check on him for you....

See what is going on for real girl! The unknown is the hardest part. I know.

My X was a marine - and lucky for me I was in the wives group and they are all nose and I found out from them. All they have to do is piss out or disgust one of the honest guys and they tell their wife - and it goes down the vine really fast!



Good luck!

you should talk to your husband and ask him what he really feels for you if he loves you or what. If he tells you that he loves you then tell him that things have to change there are many things he could do to get the your paper work faster.but if he says that he doesn't love you anymore then move on with your life.Que to do en Esta Vida SE Purdue Candi Au am or.

tell him everything you just typed. give him the choice of taking care of everything now, or just end the marriage and start your life anew.

First thing is remembering that being apart is hard enough but when you are not even in the same country it's even harder. Two you and your husbands relationship has nothing to do with the kids and their relationship with their father. You have to take into consideration that being apart is hard and it is difficult to have a long distance relationship. But once you two are reunited then you can gage the level of your relationship. Being a solider right now is a very difficult task and I'm sure your husband has very good intentions on keeping special occasions in his sights, I would not get too caught up on him being insensitive or lack of caring. But I do suggest that when you and your husband talk use the time to address your concerns. I wish you all the happiness and that you and your husband along with your entire family are reunited soon.

I think you should explain to him the way you feel, just as you have explained it to me. You could either call him on the phone to tell him, or you could write him a very detailed letter. If you decide to call him, it may even be helpful to write down what you want to say to him before you make the call. Then while you're talking to him, you can refer to what you've written so that you won't forget anything you intend to say to him. I hope things turn out well for you and your children.
