Rough Times Y'all Have Been Through?

I lost my grandfather to it last year. It from smoking tho. I cant stand cigs no and my wife is a smoker. You talking about rough times smh. Most of our arguments are about her smoking.

:smh: has she tried vaping yet? there's a vape thread here.

I mean I cant really complain. She was a smoker when I met her. I tried to deal with it but after seeing what my grandfather went because of cigs I cant do it no more.
 
in may of 2007 i had just had my daughter
the year prior my son
me and my kids and their mom were staying together
i had a GOOOOOOD *** job
in the span of 5 months she left and tried to take the kids with her
i lost my job
lost my apartment
stayed with my mom
got kicked out of my moms house
that year was BAD
2008 was a comeback year for the kid though

and what Blaster said 
 
Too much and I don't want a sob story.

But I can relate to that also op. I have been dead *** broke overdrafing on purpose because I had no other options.
 
Had my uncle die/killed then a week later my girls grandma passed. It's been a struggle mainly on her kinda put a strain on us but working through it and smiles and laughs are coming back.

And to the man who posted about beating cancer congrats man I couldn't imagine how you feel.
 
I've been blessed to really live a life without any hard times except times that I put my own self into.

Tho recently i have been thinking alot that someday, since I really havent lost any loved ones yet, I was suffer death after death sooner or later with family members. (Like aunts, grandparents, etc) and that scares the **** out of me

I've lost a lot of people, but one that hit me the most was losing my sister back in 07. She was in the hospital for 5 months due to a stroke. I shared my story with NT and y'all comforted me the whole way. I'll forever be thankful for that.

damn man sorry for ur losses
 
Don't know if leaving is an option but consider it if it is.

Shes doing something that you don't like, that's not respect....and not to add the health risks that you'd potentially have to deal with.

If it was you doing it (a man), most women, would give you an ultimatum...them or the thing you do that they don't like

You are no doubt a stronger man having gone through that in less than a year.
 
Father left our family in 1998 in Cleveland, Ohio - left 5 boys and 1 mother...he left us in a house that was a duplex, so we all 5 of us brothers slept in one small bedroom for 10 years.

Than my father died in 2007, I was 19 years old...didn't even get to go to his funeral |I.

And thats just the struggle with my father.
 
drug addict. homeless. sleeping in the park and stealing most of my food for a year. my clothes stashed in a garbage bag. random little kid brought me a burrito on his way to school one day :smh:

stopped doing drugs/drinking. today i'm paying a mortgage on my condo, pay over 20k/ year for my son's day care, traveling with my gf and kid to japan for vacation next week....life has done a complete 180 for me. things are pretty damn good.
