Any man who stays married so that he can educate stepdaughters is a really good guy. Sounds like the girls appreciate his effort and need him now.webbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15168174623602308906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3577155903853273621.post-66565019547998377152014-02-06T22:25:04.503-08:002014-02-06T22:25:04.503-08:00My guess is her calling for money or computer help...My guess is her calling for money or computer help was a way to keep him in her life. I would hazard a guess that she did know what she lost.<br />As long as the relationship with his step-daughters stays healthy, sadly I don't think he owes his ex any guilt or remorse, that just takes up emotional space that could be used for more positive things, like supporting his step daughters.<br />Take care.Gaylinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13904849415778217430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3577155903853273621.post-75779448466118180112014-02-06T20:45:14.342-08:002014-02-06T20:45:14.342-08:00This is really hard.

If she is as close to the end as you think, they will need support.

He visits all of them any time he goes to California for work. Bertha's mom thinks Bertha is the one who blew it with the marriage. I think they never should have been married in the first place!the gold diggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09134199198587591427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3577155903853273621.post-70298199652507759122014-02-06T14:16:12.053-08:002014-02-06T14:16:12.053-08:00This sounds like a very hard situation, especially...This sounds like a very hard situation, especially for your husband.
