We did this for 4 years, but the agreement was he would go to school and come back in a year or so and do here what he did there. But instead he got a DUI, starting smoking about 4 packs of cigarettes a day, drinking 12 Diet Cokes a day, spending, surfing the net, watching TV, he started eating out and got over weight and out of shape, and became a bachelor.
Needless to say when his job came to an end which it was only suppose to be a 1 to 3 year contract job that ended up going 4 years, he hadn't prepared himself like he promised and he had the opportunity to do it.
He had been out of the Service for about 13 years at that point and had never updated his now obsolete Computer Programming skills that he had learned in the Air Force, plus he had job hopped so many times and got a DUI, and they had even complained about how many smoke breaks he took, so no one would hire him.
So, in the next year I found out we are 4 years behind on our taxes, we lost our house, cars, and belongings, we are behind on our debt about 2 years, I was forced to go to work as a cleaning lady, and we moved in with my mom who has supported us for 2 years this July 19th.
... to be continued.

u were wrong 2 put up with this kind of behaviour from the very beginning. ive heard enough 2 tell u to get a job, kick him out, and tell him u refuse to have anything to do with him until he gets a good steady job. and please dont give that crap about 'i love him, icant bear to be apart', bcuz its about time u started thinking about whats best for u and ur children. if he really loves u or his kids, he will find a job.
