I took those "Till death do us part" words to heart and really thought my husband and I were in this for the rest of our lives.  Then he left 3 weeks before the one year anniversary and didn't even give a reason (just emptied the house while I was out one day).  He sure jumped ship quickly and I guess he didn't honor those vows.  I keep thinking about them though.  We WENT to premarital counseling and were told that we were getting married for all of the right reasons and that if we nurtured our relationship, we'd probably make it for the rest of our lives.  I just wish I knew what went wrong.

Okay, I'm looking forward to this show....my (now ex) husband left after our short 10 month marriage, and he had a girlfriend after 4 months of marriage.  Why bother getting married?  Why committ?  I just don't see why he would say in front of all of our family and friends that he loved me and would be with me forever and hen run off, as if he were single, only a few months later. 

And, yes, we HAD premarital counseling.  He's just a really good liar, I guess.

THIS episode will be a definite MUST SEE for me.  :)

I married a moocher and am SOOOOO lucky that he took off last year, to be with a 19-year-old former student of his.  Now SHE can support him and put up with his laziness.  He wouldn't clean, do laundry, help around the house, shop for groceries, absolutely NOTHING.  But wanted me to wait on him hand and foot.  Adios jerk!  I hope the door hit him on the way out.

I got so upset watching the mom on this show, when her son had had her kicked out of the home.  What in the world???  If I were that mom, I'd definitely CHANGE THE LOCKS when he was out one day.  it's not hard to do.........I changed the locks on my house last summer when my jerk took off and after that, he couldn't come back into the house without my permission.  It's a cheap and easy way to get rid of that mooching son of hers.  I just can't believe the guy is 33 and has no job, no home, and doesn't really seem like he wants much of anything......but he HAS kids and those kids need to be SOMEWHERE even though their father is a fat loser.

Oh gosh, I jut kept saying, "Change the locks, lady!" when that son of hers sat so smugly there.  I still can't believe he dared to call the police and say that SHE was trespassing when it was HER house. 

You madea  good point though.  If he can't get his act together and the family is homeless (mainly because he sounded VERY unwilling to work) then mom may get those kids after all and his emotional blackmail ("you'll never see your grandkids again!") wouldn't have worked.

Wow, that's true!!  Some of us don't want to admit it, but, YES, we have probably all dated losers and thought, "Oh, I can change that." 

You made some great points though.  The more your friends and family tell you bad stuff about the guy, some girls will hold onto that relationship even tighter.  It's better to let them know you're there and that they can trust in you.

I don't know.  Both of the guys on this show creeped me out.  Earl....come on, the kid was on fire and you didn' t think the burns were serious?  Geez.  And, well, just looking at the other guy gave me the creeps.  I know it shouldn't be about looks, but that guy was a walking circus sideshow.

Jennifer needs to run like hell and never look back.

Jeffrey needs serious mental help.  He gave me the creeps just watching him on tv.  Who would want to go back to some sick, demented person like that?  Videotaping her and taking photos of her in the shower and tanning bed?  Hidden cameras, microphones, and GPS units?  Good lord.  He is mentally unstable and needs to be watched closely.  I worry about Jennifer......this guy could EASILY kill her, if he feels like she's going to leave (which she SHOULD do!).  He seems like one of those "If I can't have you....no one will" type people.  Scary.

i completely agree with you.

Jennifer needs some kind of security for a little while.  That guy is going to hurt or kill her if he gets close enough.

I can only hope that Dr. Phil immediately called child protective services for their area and reported them.  No running water, no heat.  Those children are being neglected.

Plain and simple, that guy was a mooch.  He might have had a great idea 20 years ago, but what has he done since then?  Impregnante his wife 7 times?  The man is stuck in 1988 and living like a bum.  He obviously doesn't want to get a job and his wife is as delusional as he is, thinking they are living so well.    Do they really think that the lord is going to just step in and pay the mortgage?

Her mom and stepdad need to quit enabling these two and stop the money flow altogether.  Someone needs to call CPS and have those kids removed from the home.  And then both Dan and Jana (or whatever her name was) need to have full psychiatric evaluations. 

Those poor kids.  They are so obviously being abused.
