my boyfriend has a house from his divorce and wants to move in and wants me to move in with him.

( i already live with him now). i am cool with it and its just a house. it doesnt mean he will thk of his past. he even told me it didnt feel right him living there with her. he says he wasnt happy. he says he wants us to live a happy life and do what it is we want to do together as a family (my kids and his kid). i just dont know how to feel. i have been down ever since i heard we were moving in there. i dont know if i am being cursed or blessed. i am so afraid to bring my feelings to him. because he is happy he gets the house. can any help ease my worry or whatever it is i am feeling.

we are now 1 week away from moving in. and i have so much stress and anxiety. he wants me to tell him how i feel. but i don’t want him to know i’m weak. my kids are adjusting well. he is loving that he will be able to have a house again and do our business. why do i feel like this? i don’t even know what i am feeling. i am more scared then anything and i have cried several times already. what is wrong with me? why is this so hard. i get tense and clam up when the house gets brought up even when i am alone and think about it.

If it is nicer than where you are staying it is great. I have never had problems with what happened in a house before I moved in. People have died in my house but really who the crap cares? It is just a brick building and we have made happy memories here. That is all that counts.

Tim-Bob is a philosopher and often right. If you can, get someone from the Church to go into every room and bless each with love. Bless your entrance, your comings and going, your bedroom so you are safe when asleep and awake, go through every room and pray for peace, love, harmony, forgiveness and understanding and then sing a hymn at the end. Do this ritual weekly for around 6 months. Paint every room with colours that reflect the feelings that is needed in them e.g. green for health, pink for calm, blue for serenity, etc., make new curtains, put YOUR identity into it. This is your home. You are the mistress of this house. Nobody else. Take a feminine pride in it.

Remember, this is your new home so do it slowly and get to love it and allow it to love you. You live in the present and always will so accept this home into your life and bless it for giving you and your children protection, warmth. And thank God for giving a home that mets your need and allows all of your to grow. Thank God for all your beautiful children who love you and a wonderful man that you love and his glorious children. Can’t you see you are truly blessed? Be positive about it and it will be positive about you. Yes there will be upsets in the future, that’s what makes live move on but go forward into it with optimism. I can see no negatives in it. I have spent ages making my home mine and it is fulfilling activity. Good luck with everything.

I can totally relate to your situation. Sometimes we just feel insecure because we got no clue what exactly our partner’s feelings are like. We are afraid that an object that he and his ex have shared before, might bring up the past memories and re-ignite the past feelings he had for his ex. However, since you two are in the process of settling down together and your kids have adapted well to the new environment and new family, you have to strengthen your willpower and cleanse your mind off the negativity. You need to keep reminding yourself that your boyfriend has chosen you as his new life and you should give him a chance to prove himself. Trust in a relationship is really crucial and keeps the relationship really strong for long.

If you die, you will regret it. You need to talk to sensible people who understand that what you are saying IS significant and you need to be talking to sensible people who are professionals and know how to help you deal with it. With the right care, you will find it SO EASY to cope, once the formula for you is found out. Be patient, try new things, diet, exercise, therapies, medication, counselling, find the solution. You have the power to find it and look upon now and finding the solution as the quest and after you have the solution, and know what you need to do, you will be living the life you were meant to and will never feel this way.

i have tried to bring that up to him but he thinks it will not help matters. he does not believe in therapy and tells me “DO WHT YOU (email removed) WANT TO!” I asked his support thur the recovery 8/25/12 and he flat out said no. that i need to grow up and be a mom and wife the right way. i told him it takes baby steps sometimes when people like me are too deep into the depression. he says “watever baby steps are for weak people, you need to focus and snap out of it and be the strong woman i need and be the woman i fell in love with long ago, i want that woman back”
i told him i have been like this since i was 16 and u met me this way. he will never understand nor read up on the diagnosis’s i have. i wanted to give up months ago and now that percentage has raised up more. i have to secretly see a therapist for the first time since 10 yrs ago (which last for 3 sesions only, she judged me and called me “a lost puppy” i didnt feel comfrotable with her unprofessional opinion.
