Living apart after marriage

[justashooter 430]

Well, I'm sure that makes you better than people who find themselves in situations where the only other choice would be to accept unemployment insurance or other assistance, go into foreclosure or bankruptcy, or move your child in the middle of a significant school year from the frying pan (one income) to the fire (one income in an unknown area.) You are right. There's no reason why a person who values family might find themselves living apart for a few months to a few years. I wonder why K-3s, CR-1s, or IR-1s even exist. How can there be any "family" to petition for living apart from you?

I guess you'd never serve your country because you can't be a family man if you are deployed for a couple of years.

some of us haven't leveraged ourselves out the azz so do not have the problems that you speak of. it's part of our commitment to our family. we have a farmhouse on acreage that is cheaper than a new cookie cutter dream home. we drive cars we can afford. we rebuild old wooden boats, rather thna buying new ones.

as for K3 etc, they exist primarily to allow people who can't cut it in the real world to arrange for a "virtual world" with a disempowered stranger to become a real world situation.

what i did years ago is a matter of public record.
