#MCM - Should I Stay With My Cheating Husband?

Dear Danny,

I am 27 years old and have been married for 5 years. I know I was very young when I got married but I loved my husband very much. Three years into my marriage my husband had an outside child. I separated from my husband for a year and eventually went back. I now have a 1 year old son and I don't know if I want to continue to be with my husband. He says he hasn't stepped outside our marriage but anytime he isn't where he said he was, I instantly go to him cheating. His first child baby mother makes slick comments and he doesn't do anything to stop it. My mother told me that I only went back to my husband so that I could have a child by him. At this point everything he does pisses me off. I don't even want his other child to come over here anymore because it's a constant reminder. I know that is childish but hey, I'm telling my truth. Please help. Do you think we can work through this, or is it even worth it?

Dear Tina,

First thing first, no it's not worth it. Y'all can not work it out. Here are a few reasons why :
1. He's outside baby, not yo baby, is there ... for at LEAST the next 16 years. So if you can't stand the reminder now, you are not going to be able to get through this marriage.
2. If the baby mama acting a fool he is either still fucking her or he is letting her think it is ok for her to act a fool with you. Any real man would cut that shit SHORT, if he is trying to save your marriage. She can't be slick talking you, while you taking her baby out the car. Nah ... NEXT!!
3. Now you say y'all separated for a year. Ask yourself a question. How hard did he try to win you back? Because it doesn't seem like during this letter, you feel like he won you back fully. You have not expressed how he won you back. Let me know if I'm wrong nah! If he didn't fight hard enough to save his marriage, now that y'all are back together; he isn't going to fight hard enough to keep his marriage.


If he is willing to cheats on his wife he is NOT going raw the first time. He been cheating. Also you feelings aren't childish. That isn't your kid, you are of course going to feel a certain type of way. But the respect and strength you have as a mother allows you to love and car for this baby, even though you don't want to. AAANNNNDDD what do you mean he isn't where he said he was? Isn't that how he cheated in the first time? Where is he going that he can't tell you where he is going? Sounds like ya man is cheating. The biggest mistake people make is thinking they can save a marriage when they can't. Now sometimes marriages can be saved, and I'm not saying yours can't be .... BUT from what I've seen ... your between a rock and a hard place. Question is .. are you going to slide up out it?

Check On Your Friends

So I had this whole blog written out in the shower about 30 minutes ago. For some strange reason I have been staring at this screen for 10 minutes with nothing to type. First let's talk about me, then we'll talk about you. Many of you do not follow me on social media but I am currently 37 weeks pregnant, still married, with a 20 month old. This second baby was NOT planned and honestly threw me into a world wind of emotions from day one when I found out. You can really prepare everything you need/want for your baby but still not be mentally ready. I, for one, am just now starting to get there. For the past few months I have been struggling with depression. I mean it was really bad. I didn't talk about it with anyone because honestly I did not want to hear any of the following : 1. You need to just go to church and pray about it. - FYI mental health is not something your pastor can scripture away. 2. You aren't the first person to have two babies back to back. - I

If It Were You, Would You Be Proud

I don't really know how to start this post, but ya'll rock with me so just let me have a moment. I love to blog but I am having time management issues with everything going on in my life. It doesn't make me money so it kind of goes on the back burner even though I love to do it. My small home town had a double homicide yesterday. I'm not listing names or locations because I respect the privacy of everyone in that situation. With a sad heart, my mind began to race with thoughts of "if this happened to me, have I lived the life I wanted?" Because it can happened to any of us. I live in Stone Mountain, GA and although my block is very quiet, little to no children on the block, just a few weeks ago my husband and I came home to a road full with police, fire department trucks, ambulance vans and cars everywhere. We still don't know what happened down there. I work for myself. My husband and I started a few businesses together and each of them has there se

Like I hope she not frying NATHAN!! Because baby bout to get burnt up trying to be cute.) and the girl replies "this is wife level package, you can upgrade your girlfriend package by buying a ring. He couldn't be me. STARVE THEN BIH! Listen .... follow me umkay? 1. NONE OF YA'LL (me included) makes enough money to eat at a restaurant everyday where the food is that damn bomb! Like you gone be eating Applebee's happy hour on the 4th day! AAANNDDDD ain't NOBODY trying to take yo bap ass out to eat EVERYDAY. Hoe I got bills to pay! Say it with me now ...
