1. What different types of lawyers are there?
2. What is the average salary for a lawyer?

I’m really interested in becoming a lawyer. I was thinking either divorce/custody/adoption or like one of those lawyers who have to research criminals. But i want to know the other options.
Thanks!!

I married at 18 and he was 25.

Fast forward to when I am 31. He has an affair. A long one, which was loving. He wished he met her first, she was the One – she met his friends and colleagues – you name it. He ended it when I found out a year later, and hell broke loose. However, he went back to her a few times, before eventually trying to make it work with me.

While we were working on the marriage, the OW has my husband arrested on a pretty serious charge….made sure he suffered for 3 months…then “dropped the charges”. I think that was the final nail in the coffin.

I could not forget what he did with her 2 years ago, plus all the arrest trauma, and filed for divorce this new year.

I have found out that she is the first person he told that I left him. He REALLY seems not to care about the end of this 13 year marriage. He seems to feel so free. However he told her he would not sleep with her again til after the divorce. I thought this was out of respect for me..he wanted to wait..however today I found out this is because he is “not relaxed until the divorce is through, as if the wife finds out I’m seeing you before the divorce, she’ll become bitter and make me pay!”

So this means he WILL be with her once the ink is dry!

Apparently she then cried and said that he “didn’t want” her – he said he did, but she must wait til after the divorce then they can “relax” as he will be “properly single”. He really seemed bothered that she was so upset.

He has told her that he never wants another serious relationship again though. But might he change his mind? They both have their own flats (we sold the marital home)

I also found out that he meets up with her during their working days (they originally met through working closeby). I gather that he is telling her he doesn’t want a relationship with ANYONE but “might” change his mind. But at the very least, he does want to see her (after the divorce so as not to jeopardise his position in court, I guess).

He also told her that “no one” else would get away with speaking to him like she does.

On one hand, I know he is actively pursuing her, even if they are just going on walks, and waiting for her outside her office, but then he says he does not want a relationship and she “may” have to “share” him once the divorce is through.

Obviously he is assuming he will find loads of women to have sex with.

Everyone is telling me that he loves her, but if this is the case, why is he risking her meeting someone else by being wishy-washy with her? Is he only making so much effort because it was good sex, or might he love her?

I meant to disappear off the face of R&S earth but I had to ask…

I’m curious as to mostly the Christians’ response on this b/c I know how divorce is frowned upon in this particular religious circle. I welcome any and all responses however, and thank you for taking the time to read.

In a nutshell, here is the scenario:

Found out over the weekend, my husband of 9 yrs is still using cocaine after pathologically lying that he stopped.
He’s gone to NA and continues with this habit. We have 2 young children who worship their dad and although I’m grateful he gets along so well with them, it makes the process of separation that much more hellish.
He cooks, he cleans, he is a very involved parent, and I know he loves his children and me. I’ve always been faithful and supportive of him when he’s gone to his programs, keeping it a secret and offering encouragement.
He’s a politician and is well respected in our community, however, I can certainly hold my own financially if I finally make the decision to leave him and begin the whole ugly process.

Some say these addictions are a form of disease and I wouldn’t leave him if he had cancer, etc…….I understand that, but at the risk of sounding selfish, I am not in love with this man any longer no matter how wonderful everyone sees him or how much his children love him. I am still young and don’t want to waste any more years with him. This habit has eroded any respect I’ve had for him and frankly, I can’t bare his touch.

When is enough really enough within a marriage when the children are fine but one of the parents is losing her mind? He’s gone to meetings, begged, threatened…….I told him he can’t force me to feel anything towards him but disgust and civility. When my children are around I try to be more loving towards him but he knows it’s a show, they can’t tell the insincerity.

Obviously, I’m lonely as hell and I don’t want to break my childrens heart. I’ve already sacrificed much of my life so they can remain stable and happy and I’m apprehensive of turning their world upside down without making certain I’ve gone through all of my options in healing our marriage.

Just wondering if anyone has had similar experiences with spouses within their marriage and how did you handle it.

I’m full of typos, and I don’t care. Thanks for listening.

I was married to a guy and was actually madly in love with him…I had a lot of things going on that he couldn’t understand (I didn’t myself). I know he did some things to cause our divorce so did I, but I feel like i need some closure. However; I am with a man now I love and I know this is where I want to be. Would it be dumb to open a closed door?
As for what we would talk about…we lost our sons…we had some major issues…I kinda want to know some why’s…and explain some of mine….
