[Congressman Billybob]

Very few of my columns are this personal. But this one must be. Any of y'all who are friends of Kemberly can post answers to her on FR, to "Felicity Fahrquar."

John / Billybob

[papasmurf]

You call that a marriage? I didn't see the word "love" anywhere but in the title.

I'm sorry, Congressman Billybob, but you guys have deeper issues than a waiting job.

What about love, commitment, getting old together?

But, heck, I shouldn't be so harsh, I can see you're all broken up over this./s

...and I thought my marriage was rough :O)


:O)

My condolences and congratulations.

[Nam Vet]

Best of luck to you both. This had to be tough. Won't get any easier either. Take care of yourself, my FRiend.

If this works for you so be it....I just hope you do not have children...

[Glenn]

Modern rationality sure makes for interesting turns in life.

Best to you both.

Would you, should you, leave your husband/wife if the chance of a lifetime – the chance of several lifetimes – came along?

No

Death Before Dishonor

[sit-rep]

Sorry to hear it man...but I would try to keep it together...let her go, but don't sign the papers. Things may not work out and she might want to return...

[Andy'smom]

I'm sure there must be more to this story than you have just related to us, right?

Anyway, my best wishes to you both during this difficult time.

[Dems_R_Losers]

Not to be a smart-aleck or anything, but I hope both of you know that 70% of new restaurants fail. Kemberly may be back in North Carolina before either of you think. I would not sign those divorce papers if I were you and really loved this woman.

[HitmanLV]

Sorry to hear this, in any case. I'll keep you in my prayers and send you positive vibes.

[SittinYonder]

I wouldn't leave the NC Blue Ridge Mountains either.

[Hunble]

So why are you not going with her?

[Alia]

You love her.

[em2vn]

You just got your ass thrown under the bus for a job your old lady is taking. Man you mean less to her than a good set of chef's knives. You have been abandoned by your wife. Understand me? She has abandoned you for a chance to work in a kitchen eight thousand miles away.
I hope you can take her for support and anything else that she may possess. No job is worth what she is pulling on you. No matter how wonderful the job is, you have been F%$#@%. Heap whipped cream all over it but it is still a pile of manure.
Grow a set and take her to the cleaner. You have been rooted and don't even realize it.

Sorry friend, but what part of "until death do you part" did you two not understand?

I am divorced from my first wife because of her own stupid choices, but she will ALWAYS remain my wife.

Ten years later, when she attended the funeral of my Grandmother, everyone in my family treated her as my wife and give her nothing but the respect that she deserved.

Until the day that Pat or I die, we will always be married to each other. We made an oath to God on the day that we were married.

Today, I have been married to a wonderful woman for 20 years now, and she that has been the best thing that ever happened to me. Sue has taught me so many things about marriage, and how it will last for the rest of your life.

Sue and I often visited her former husband and appreciate him as a good friend. Sue understood that marriage is for the rest of your life.

Until Pat or I die, she will always be my wife, because of the oath to God that we both made.

[TheMom]

Would you, should you, leave your husband/wife if the chance of a lifetime – the chance of several lifetimes – came along?

Couldn't do it.

[Budge]

Wow, Congressman Billybob! I see some sound advice, some bitter sounding advice and some good wishes for you both.

Is does not sound like a divorce is in the air, just a physical seperation...for however long.

I wish you and Felicity Fahrquar the very best!

[macamadamia]

so there you have it; probably the most extraordinary reason for the end of a marriage that you’ve ever heard.



So there you have it?! Talk about an ellipsis. This story, confession, strikes me as riddled with omissions, even coy. Assuming this is not a hoax, I'd say you had problems WELL BEFORE this "51st Way", a description that is itself rather flippant given the gravity of the situation.
