Today I had yet another argument with my daughter and this one was a heated one. We were talking about things and how I wanted to bring my friend up to meet her and she told me that F--- that since she did not want that c--- around her. I was appalled at what she was saying to me about my friend who is a nice person. She told me that she (my friend ) changed me...into a lesbian and for that she was mad and that she was the reason I wanted to get a divorce. That is not true since I have not been happy in this marriage for a long time. There has been no intimacy, romance, trust or conversations that have not gotten into an argument within a few minutes of startin within the past yr or so. It has become where I do not want to be here at home, don't want to be out, or a multitude of other things. I cry about this alot and after talking to several people who have said then get a separation and/or a divorce. you can still remain friends I would love it to be like that. He is not a bad guy but at this time, i am beiginning to resent him, what is going on here at home and my daughter telling me to forget it and stay married to make her happy. She is 18 and does not live at home, did not care about me and my feelings when she left me a note on a napkin and moved to another state. This all has begun to affect my job performance, my sleep and eating, my happiness and any relationships I have. My children are older....the other child is 17. As for my friend and I...time will tell. I do care for her alot sometimes i think more than i should, but i do....maybe I am like she says but that should not matter since it will never make me stop loving my kids. if it were them...i would not stop loving them. But either way, my friend was not the cause of me wanting a divorce....this began way before we met.
