That materialistic streak is a marriage wrecker

"Whatever happened? I loved this girl with everything I have. She was a storekeeper and I was a self-employed plumber. I saved some money and ensured she went back to school. She got her university degree last year and God knows what I have been going through since. All that respect and the smiles have vanished. Now she treats me like I were a two year-old, barking at me and daring me to hit or do something to her. About five times she has lied to the police that I threatened her in some way. I am sure very soon she will find a foolproof lie that will put me in jail forever.

Funny thing is I am not even sure what I must do. I can't leave. I love my kids and can't bear to see them live in a disjointed family. And I still love her. I invested my all - my love and everything that is me in this woman, and today even her family treat me like I were some monster, to the point her siblings come into my house and insult me in her presence and she allows it," he says dejectedly.
