Topic : 04/26 Obsessive Love

As a police officer of over 6 years, I am sick with the fact that this man is physically, verbally, emotionally and sexually abusing his wife and has not been arrested.  I don't care if there is no anti-stalking law in his state, this is abuse and he should be in jail for what he has done.  Further more, I believe she is in real danger if she does leave him.  I believe he will harm her and her children.  She needs immediate protection and he needs to be arrested and evaluated by a psychiatrist.

Your husband is controlling you.  He has destroyed court affidavets.  He has destroyed personal properties, and  has taken away your freedom.

WHY put up with it?

Leave him .........................before...................................

HE KILLS YOU!

Since the majority of the posts are from females I feel that I should add my opinion.

I was absolutely appauled by todays show.  How any person, man or women, could do such things another human being and say they do it because they 'love them' just amazes me. 

I am the father of four (soon five) children.  My wife and I did not have the greatest start to our marriage, there were several affairs that my wife had.  I, knowing what she was doing, never even had the slightest thought of doing anything that this 'person' (he is not a man) did to Jennifer. The only thing I did was check her cell phone (she didn't hide the phone calls well).  I had the feeling that if she was set on doing it, it would happen.  I stuck by despite knowing what was going on. 

Now three years after the last affair we have rediscovered our marriage and each other.  I trust her fully and she is my best friend, wife, and everything else.  We still melt when we look into each others eyes.

The point of that whole story was to make the point that it took the BOTH of us to make it work and the both of us to give 100%.

Control and obsession is NOT love.  I could have controlled my wife and taken everything away, she would have just found another way.  This person has a sickness and needs every bit of help that Dr. Phil can give him and Jennifer needs to move on with her life.  Yes, it is very hard to make the decision to break up your family, however, this has to be a 'deal breaker'. 

Stay strong Jennifer and remember..... You are Jennifer

Thats my two cents, and I haven't even seen part two.

I just watched the show, and I was thinking "creep factor" before it was said. This guy is completely out of control! Jennifer needs to get herself and the kids, and go where he can NEVER find them. She needs to have a VPO, and have a copy on her at all times.

She might also need to have the kids evaluated for psychological damage from this, and/or due to sharing his DNA and being possibly pre-disposed to mental instability.

I have been around several people(both male and female), who have had to deal with this to some degree, and one must be aware that it can escalate to serious danger, up to murder(if I can't have you, nobody can)...

NC Horse Lady,

   Do you have a Battered Woman's shelter in your area. Check with your city hall, they should have that kind of information. Also, Most universities and community colleges offer financial aide. You will be looking for grants, such as, Pell Grants, displaced homemaker's, etc. Please note that once you get a degree, you should be able to support yourself, and if need be pay off a student loan. Please note that there may also be scholarships available, and you might qualify. Go to school, get another life, you don't deserve the one you've got. You need to be independent. Good Luck. May God Bless You!
