am i being too critical?

well you chose the bloody username and i couldn't use it.. lol
i suppose i could have been hadenoughnow2

Had, the reason i had had enough was, golf took over his life, unless the word golf was in the sentence he would never listen to a word i said. He never had time for the kids, the kids felt neglected and were constantly in tears. But i too married and thought it was for life but 20 years later, i looked back and at the last 10 years and i had seen myself as a single married mother, he never told me he loved me or did anything nice, even when i did he did not appreciate it... he did nothing for me or the kids and thats why I'd had enough. But saying that we are still friends so thats a bonus.

As there are thousands of posts of the forum i can't remember everyone's story at times , do you or your ex have a disability ? Is that what you felt broke up your marriage ?

To be honest DD, I think that this is far too complex and sensitive a topic to debate in open forum.

In the year (yesterday) since I joined wikivorce, I have listened to people here, and in chat, tear themselves apart looking for reasons to explain why their partners left/abandoned/rejected them. Sometimes, there are very clear reasons... other times there are very complex reasons... and occasionally, there are just no reasons at all!

In terms of looking for a correlation between disability and divorce, I think that would best be done as a social study and away from a support group. Support groups are, almost by definition, a place where people come with needs. Where we have a high population of people who have needs driven by emotion (and a divorce group surely has to be just such a place) there simply isn't enough clear thinking and distance required for that level of social study.

Any results you were able to conclude would be skewed by that factor alone (and there are many others) and would render the study invalid.

Just a view

Hi All,

I must say that I hadn't noticed anyone with a disability here, just people who are going through an unpleasant time in their lives.

Hi Peeps

it just struck me how may disabled Peeps there are here -

I've posted on a few forums and found that there always seem to be more disabled people than one would see or hear in the "real" world.

Perhaps the reality of disability rather than the subject matter of this forum is what counts

Hahaha Middi, there are more disabled people in the "real" world than on forums..

shezi

you're quite right
