One of those down times

 Sitting in central Tennessee in the middle of an ice storm, not able to get down the road toward home. Of course I really don't have my own home any more as I kinda screwed that one up, too. I've always figured I was a pretty good sort of guy. So why is it I cannot find the right women to be with forever? I've tried 3 times. I always thought those people who have been married/divorced multiple times had something wrong with them. Maybe I was right.

There isn't anything wrong with you dad! We all have our faults but you are a great guy. I guess the Lord has something in store for you that hasn't happened yet and all these experience have helped prepare you for it. Never think less of yourself. You are one of the greatest people I know. You have always been such a great example to me. And I know Sean feels the same way. But you are allowed down times. I am learning this. You are loved dad!

love, jess

I don't think there is a thing in the world wrong with you. I think we put too much pressure on ourselves to be something we are not. I too, am a member of the "multiple" club. If at first you don't succeed....

Hey you. Doug was married twice before he got lucky and found me!
I was married once before but had significant relationships too.
Nothing WRONG with you. People sometimes grow apart. Sometimes you rush into something that feels real good at the time.
Being a truckdriver wont make it easy to find that right gal either lol.
BUT in this day and age the options are open I suppose.
Dont be so hard on yourself.

Sometimes our picture of a perfect relationship is flawed. NOTHING can stay together unless both parties pull the yoke.
God had a plan for couples. When we forget that, and try to work it out for ourselves, things go awry.
Our human need to feel wanted and attractive to the other sex gets in the way. Marriage isn't about sex it's about working toward a common goal and praising the Lord together. Understanding neither party is perfect.

SEE it took me a LOOOONG time to understand all that. But good to know you had that opinion. :-p explains sooo much! LOL

and while we're on it. You have been a friend for over 25 years. We may have lost touch for a bit, but I can't imagine the person you are inside has changed. you have a lot to offer the world and should be proud of yourself. *HUGS*
