DesertGoddess Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Thought I would introduce myself. I have been happily married to my eternal companion for a little over 3 years now. We live in sunny AZ. We have a daughter who is almost 18 months old. Both my husband and I have been through previous divorces, I was only married 10 months before my ex decided that pornography and verbal abuse was okay. I am a stronger woman because of it and hope to help others with my story. My sweet husband was married for 6 years and has a 6 year old son. His ex is very unstable and her mood swings are all over the place. My husband is a U.K. citizen so that is where is ex and son live, and the outdated custody laws, along with his ex wife's constant road blocks, will not allow us to gain much access to my step-son. I am in a constant cycle of forgiveness, because his ex wife is constantly making up terrible lies about us and saying very hurtful things, and then taking them back and being nice for short periods of time. It is a constant roller coaster on her end. It hurts, but I know that every thing happens for a reason, and Heavenly Father does not give us challenges in our lives that we cannot over come. This situation has taught me that praying for people who persecute you, use you, hate you, bear all manner of false witness against you...... really does comfort and calm the soul. Prayer is my only defense in this situation. I am a musician, I play guitar, piano, and I am a vocalist. I compose my own music and I also enjoy covering other songs in my own 'unplugged' style. I am a very happy and positive person. I enjoy tae bo, pilates, swimming, and walking out doors in all kinds of weather. I'm glad I found this site. It seems like a wonderful way to support others who might be struggling or looking for answers and guidance. I believe that Heavenly Father answers prayers through the people around us many times in our life, so hopefully I can be there for someone.

DesertGoddess Posted September 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 Ha ha. Thanx everyone. I just keep telling myself that she is "saved" because she is so mentally gone. One day we will be able to sit down with my step son and explain why we weren't allowed in his life. My husband has also created an email address in my step sons name where he forwards all the crazy and terrible emails that his ex (my step son's mom) sends us. When she tells us that she will not allow us to speak to him, etc, we forward those. That way he will see one day how much we tried. My husband also writes little emails and thoughts for my stepson hoping that one day he will read them and know how much he/we love him.
