Close Breakups & Divorce
My marriage has been rocky for a few years now. I have 2 daughters, ages 15(a troubled teen)and 7. He has not been dealing well with the teen. He has become very selfish and secretive. I found out he has been experimenting with men, but says he is not gay. Now he is not sure if he loves me or wants to be with me. I am in love with him and want to try counseling, but he has never wanted to. He says I "suck the life out of him" and I am never happy. I fear I am doomed to a divorce I dont want.

Open Parenting Teenagers (12-18)
I have a 15 year old, who has had some troubles. She was misdiagnosed with Bi-Polar, taken off a medication cold turkey (that was ugly), run away, done pot, drank alcohol, and had sex. SHEESH! Still I love her and we are making great strides. She is really a good kid despite her difficulties.
