Alcoholism Recovery & Treatment

White males have some of the highest rates of divorce, alcoholism, and out of wedlock children(Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Iceland, Finland, France, etc) lead in Europe with this. IS it bigoted to not get romantically involved with white men b/c of this? If many of them are great, why are 50% or more of them divorced from their first or even second wives to begin with? Surely, it can’t be the woman’s fault all the time, can it?

wife left me and the kids…I am now a single father. Short story. She went kind of looney…dated guys…some half her age. Some older then her. Got addicted to alcohol, cyber,webcam sex some with 17 year olds..she is 35. She is currently in lvoe wiht an 18 year old from teh UK who she plays xbox live with and cybersexes with. Anyway she said this past tuesday that she lost feelings and trust for me and wants to go to counseling to try and sort this out and if it helps we can stay together if not move on. I dont know what trust she lost in me since I have been faithful? I filed for divorce about a yr ago. She was diagnosed bipolar in rehab but is not gettign treatment since she thinks she is fine. She also barely sees the kids and got a tattoo on her lower back after she left saying, ” Enjoy the Ride”
Anyway I said no to counseling since I am trying to move on….I think she needs help 1st. I thought maybe she would get help to better herself. two days later she said that she will now sign the divore paperwork once her benefirts go through at ehr job. (She is on my benefits) How do you go from wanting counseling to really wanting to complete the divorce in two days? She is hot and cold…why is this? Do you think she will want to stay marreid in two days? I just dont understand…its been this way for the apst 17 months!

Hummer Parts

My wife shouts at me day and night – at any little thing. I am in a de-tox progrom for alcohol (successful so far). She was requested by her doctor to not shout at me during this 2 week period. Does not stop her – picks on any little thing and shouts about my family, my housework, anything.
By the way I make a very decent salary in the silicon valley and support my wife and my 2 kids. I am not perfect but do the best that I can.
I try to resolve issues by discussion but get shouted at in return. This is a pattern with us.
What are options other than divorce (she refuses to go to counseling)? We have 2 little children

I have used that threat in the past and he just brushes it off. He has had an affair and we both decided to go through counseling and but he has neglected to go. He still has the same tendencies as far as his drinking and not coming home until the very next morning. He also has issues with illegal steriod usage and alcohol. Please provide some insight as to what to expect during the whole divorce process. We have (2) young children that could possibly be in danger with his reckless lifestyle.

When I decided to file for divorce, I went the cheap way and hired a negligent paralegal off Craigslist who advertised low cost non contested divorces. He claimed his dad supervises him, big lie.
The nut did file the divorce, but has messed up along the way numerous times. He sent the citation for service to the wrong county, so it got hung up. And on the divorce papers put his own address, and my name… so now I could not get any divorce papers, even if I tried.
I was referred to a great attorney, with over 50 years of experience. He told me to come in for a consulatation.
Do I need one, even though the paralegal did file it, and it did get to the court house? My husband seems to be contesting, as he wrote down on his “answer” that he “the respondent denies everything”.
I would like random drug, alcohol, and mental counseling/eval’s for my husband. And this paralegal hasn’t the power to get that done.
Attorney needed, or attorney not needed?
