Sad and lonely Mother and child NEW
by: Anonymous

We were in love at one time but yeah-I am raising our beautiful boy by myself. Had to marry my parents, they love him (our son) but I want a man who is present.. What is with these guys. They can be selfish and money driven. Think of themselves as strong for being able to detach themselves. It is no attribute-it stinks. I am sad and lonely and our son wonders where his dad is??? He is six. Just Lord, my God, send me someone loyal like me who won't take me for granted. To make matters worse, he is a Momma's boy and when he comes home to Jersey he would rather see his Mommy first and sleep over there.

Being a truckers girlfriend
by: Anonymous

All I can say is there is alot of suffering in being with a trucker. Never there when you need them can't plan anything with them. One is pretty much living the single life with a trucker. Doesn't help if there are trust issues either...they can get away with anything otr. Only speaking from my experience. Give you gals a lot of credit. I can't put my life on hold and have mainly a phone relationship. Good luck gals!!!

Feeling alone
by: Kate

Hi there!
My name is Kate and I have been married for 9 years this May. My husband started with the Truck driving business two years ago and it is really beginning to pay a toll on our marriage. When we talk it is only about finances or where his next stop is....
He recently began feeling that I was pulling away and started to talk and text to other women during the day and night...
What do I do? He tells me he loves me and that he was doing it to pass the time.....any feelings about this???
Thanks

welcome ;)
by: Jennifer S

Hi Connie ;)

welcome to my world, I am the same age as you, only I bring 4 kids to my marriage of 6 years. When Keith and I met, he was not a driver, and believe me when I say that it was not easy when he began to do so. As I sit and type on this computer, I am sitting in a truck stop in Richmond Virgina, riding along with my husband for the week-- HOPING to be home by Friday. My children thank god, range in age from 20-11. So when I want to go, my 20 year old will watch her younger siblings for us.

Despite all of the advise I give to other wives, I can assure you, it is no easier to use the advise that I give, than it is for anyone else! Its so hard to be supportive when you are miles and miles away, and weeks away from just 1 more kiss! My hat is totally off to you ladies with OTR husbands, that is so hard, and its something I know intimately now, which I did not before. He worked regionally, and i liked that! He is now OTR, and home only every other week-end...Rough for sure. But it is nice to go along with.

Try very hard to set yourself up with the availability to do so if you have not yet. it is a once in a life time experience, and it will tell you, and teach you more, than you can possibly imagine.

Again welcome to the site,

Jen
