I was arrested in Amherst by Amherst Police and arraigned by Judge Klein. My court date is January 26. I am trying to get ahold of the lawyer assigned to me and my case since this morning.

I'll be praying for you, Houmatt. Whatever you have done, if you truly repent, God will forgive you. Sometimes we learn life's lessons the hard way. Look at it this way... this is another experience - sometimes the best way to learn is by experience.

All I want to be able to do as far as my wife is concerned is at least maintain a friendly relationship with her.

I know my marriage is over. But I emotionally invested seven years of my life into that woman. She was the one I turned to when I needed someone to talk to; when I was lonely or upset.

I can assure you there is not a single person on this planet who knows me better than she does.

Well, I know this is personal, but since you're talking about it...

It seems your wife had made up her mind a long time ago. Long before your problems with the law.

I would guess I should have seen this coming. She had told me the feelings she had had for me before were not the same, and this was something she had been agonizing over for a while.

Friends don't abandon friends when they're down and are in need of help. That's when you really know who your friends are. That's when you really know who loves you, and who doesn't. If someone doesn't love you, than, look ahead and start again. It's not easy, but there's no point consuming yourself with grief and memories of times gone past.

Good luck, Houmatt. May God keep you safe.
