Divorce law/ child custody laws are absolute BS. My cousin married an awesome guy, they had 5 kids, then she had an affair. The law allows for her to move anywhere in the state without any judicial approval. Illinois is a huge flippin state, and she is going to move 300 miles away, and her ex is SOL. Oh, and her kids are berkeleyed too, since they are moving with her from one of the best school districts in the country to one of the worst. Not to mention, the oldest should not be going to somewhere where there is nothing to do. I can tell you how this will probably end, and it isn't pretty
Oh yeah, and the reason that she was moving was to be near her boyfriend. Well, he was killed in a mining accident. But she is still moving!

Well guys we meant with the counselor and I'm happy to say she's agreed to stay married and continue to work on the marriage. I have a lot of work ahead of me but I feel I know what I need to do I just need to execute and stay committed to it. Ill be living outside the home for a while during this time. Its my wifes request and hopefully not too long. She's afraid the day to day will effect our success rate. Not an ideal thing but I'll take it. I'm really excited to have the chance to keep her as my wife.
I can't thank you guys enough for sharing everything you have and thanks to the guys who reached out privately to me. This board rocks!
Glad to hear it. I didn't have any advice on dealing with anger management, but I just wanted to be encouraging. There can be times when a temporary separation can be needed to cool off and help people work through their issues - hang in there and keep working on it. It's like sometimes you need to remove a cylinder head to fix what's wrong with it before you put it back on the car.
