I've been married for 36 years, and we all have spats. When we married, it was for life, to death due us part! Get into a good church. find a good lady.
Divorced once to an unfaithful wife, widowed twice, I found my gal, and it is good, married 13 years now. Our faith in Jesus is an important glue to our relationship. I remember how hard it was each time. But faith kept me going and hoping to this wonderful marriage we have now in our 70's. Wait a while, but don't give up. There is someone special just for you out there, and God loves to be a match maker.
Josh,you done the best you could do, now it’s time to move on to a new life.Good luck,you got this,and if miss Stony Ridge sees this bless you too and I pray nothing but the best for you both.
I have been through the same thing with all the same struggles on the farm and with the wife and a few girlfriends after the wife. I still have the farm and two adult daughters that are here helping on the farm. Thank god for them. Good luck with the future
I appreciate you sharing all your learnings as you build your farm, thankyou. I wish you every success in finding your peace in whatever form that takes bud
Thanks for your candor, Josh. So sorry for your troubles. I still live on my family farm. Farming is hard, relationships can be hard. Hard decisions have to be made, so you make them. You're doing good, keep it up.
Josh I appreciate you and all the information you put out here. One sided love is a rough situation. But just know I (hopefully everyone) is praying for you. You a very special person been watching for a long.
Thanks for explaining, was missing her. Love and prayers to both of you. So very sorry things didn't work out. I know you are grieving. You tried so hard. Sending love and prayers brother.
Wow, appreciate your honesty here. God bless you and stay strong. Farm life is defiantly not for everyone. Take some time, settle in and you'll find the right partner when the time comes.
Josh, you don't owe anyone anything, but I appreciate you sharing and hope that in doing so it also helps you on your healing journey. What you're doing with the farm is amazing. It's a lifestyle I wish I could live again. I enjoyed living on a large dairy farm with multiple livestock and learned so much from it as a child. I think my chickens are as close as I'll be able to get at this point lol. Trust your gut. I wish you luck on your future endeavors, you got this!
Mature approach to the struggles of life, thank you for sharing. Discovering the knowledge and wisdom of scripture can be truly inspirational, especially when you take into account no one is perfect, but those experiences prepare us for God's mission for each of us. Prayers, love you and your perspective!
A favorite series on SRF involved an old tractor (AC or MF?) found on a neighbor’s property. You worked your way into the locked rear axles and fixed that tired iron. Sometimes that’s more gratifying than finding a maintained piece of equipment and picking it off the shelf, so to speak. Your heart went into that tractor. Over 60 years ago I had a JD B model with flywheel start, and it seemed to me there was nothing that little tractor and I couldn’t accomplish. Eventually it wore out, much like me today. But I still think of that little tractor and the memories we made. Josh, keep making memories. They last.
No offense, but there's always 3 sides to every 2 sided situation. Your side, her side, and the middle "side". From what I've seen, She has always seemed like a sweet, honest, smart, beautiful and very capable person. I would love to hear her side. Either way, You are both awesome people, it just sucks to see this happen. Payers are with you both. Cheers
You are doing awesome work. My son and I have benefited greatly from your advice and just the real life environment you show us all. Keep up the good work and don't let the haters put you down.
Hi Josh, as viewers we could tell something wasn't right ,glad to see you are moving on . Personally I don't like being alone ,took 3 marrages to find someone that would love and care for me. But again life happens again ,married in 05 and had a stroke in 16 and she's still here , limited to little movement on right side glad to be moving . God bless my friend. As much as you love the Lord ,good things are to come. Reach out to me .
Everything is going to work out just fine brother. Good luck to you and Ms. Stoney Ridge. Here's to a long life filled with love , joy and happiness ....and lots of children!! May God Bless the both of you!!
Take time for You. Do not rush into anything dealing with women. I admire your courage in bringing up this sensitive subject. Sending good positive thoughts from Greensboro. Continue to look forward.
Regardless of the circumstances I wish you the best ! Break ups are tough , you’ve got a lot going on at the farm, stay focused, time will heal the hurt . Really enjoy watching your videos!
Sorry man.. been there with my ex wife but I found a great woman after that after 9.5 yrs I finally married recently. God provides us with trials and tribulations and not all are enjoyable but they make us stronger. Make sure to remember that you’re not alone and you can always get help and encouragement from friends family and clergy
Be strong. I started over 6 years ago and found some one that support all my crazy ideas and injois the farm life like I do. We met on farmers only and we live over 850 miles away. It’s not going to be easy but you will know when is the right time.
Hey brother, sounds like you're keeping your wits about you and have a strong plan moving forward. Glad to hear it. You ever need help I'll be glad to come out and volunteer. I did so at a ranch in Arizona while I was deployed out there. I'm in Asheville and I don't think you're too far away from what I gather. Sucks about the dog but I think you did the right thing. Be safe, God bless, and I'll keep you in my prayers.
Regardless of your situation, you gotta keep on keepin' on! I've been in a similar situation , loving relationship that started in high school and went on for 8 years. On the surface and in front of others we were good together. But behind the scenes it sucked! We didn't have the same goals and argued about Everything. I'm no angel by any means but the relationship was toxic. Sometimes you just gotta move on. Keep your chin bud. And don't look back on this situation. God bless ya.
Wishing nothing but the best for you and the former Mrs Stoney. I really hoped you and her would make a go of it again. I enjoyed the videos where you both were together. But life teaches us strong lessons. It's bad about the dog but once they get a taste of blood some dogs go crazy. Best of luck in your new chapter, I hope you and Mrs. Stoney can find true happiness.
Right there with you sir , very similar situation for me last year. I’m a 100 times happier with all the nonsense over with. You’re a good man things will definitely work out for you !
We've all watched your efforts and hers too. There's little doubt that you've both tried. Love can be hard to define. You WILL find someone to share your life style with. Sometimes you find THE ONE, when you're not looking for her.
Howdy Josh! Yeah... I feel for ya brother. I'm in a similar situation where I might have to make a tough decision. Never easy for sure. Prayers. Thanks for sharing 🤠
God bless you brother I'm praying . I don't comment hardly at all but I watch the channel often . It's hard to put your life out there but whatever you decide I wish you the best.
Josh, no one can give you the right advice because we were not there to see what happened. I can encourage you to look towards God who knows both of you very well. He knows better what you need and who you need in your life. I pray the right person crosses your path and is able to build a beautiful life together. Keep the videos rolling. They are important and helpful to others.
Praying you find peace and comfort. Keep your head held high. Hope you find that inner happiness again. You are a good man. Never forget that. When the time is right you will find your true soulmate. Pick up the pieces and move forward at your own pace. You have to deal with the grief of all this. God bless you.
I’ve been through some rough times in my marriage too! I don’t think I could talk about it on TH-cam! I’ll pray for you brother and hope the best for you 💪
Sometimes it’s time to break the pattern! Sometimes it just doesn’t work, you gave it the old college try! It’s not a failure but a screening process! I’ve been married to my smoking hot Irish bride for 34 years. It’s not been all good but almost all good
A good marriage is wonderful. A bad marriage can be hell. My parents celebrated 73, my sister 48 and I 43. With the right person it is great. As life changes attitudes change. Find a new woman who you are compatible with. Bless you in your endeavors.
This life is not for everybody Josh. All you can do is try and it is not something you can do for someone else. I feel for you Josh, I do, You will get through this and I wish you the very best.
Hey Josh. Thanks for sharing. I know how hard this can be. You are a positive, cheerful, hard working guy. Once the pain fades you'll be good. My second marriage is a forever marriage. It can and will happen for you. I wasn't looking and bam, there she was. Hang in there Buddy. You got this. PS Learned a lot from you already.
Josh, sometimes you find out you make better friends, than a couple! Good job with being honest with self and taking the high road. Hope the best for you both, Bob
Thanks for being so open with us. When a relationship becomes toxic, it isn’t good for either of you. So sorry. Also so sorry about Lexus, but sounded like u gave her too many chances. It was past time to put her down but I know it’s the hardest thing in the world to do. So sorry she had to go. God bless
I'm sad to hear the news. I had real hopes for you two. Before you get into the next relationship, figure out what went wrong with this one, correct your part in it, and heal from that completely. As they say, those that don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Hopefully she will do the same, and then both of you will be better people for it.
Dude, sorry for you both. There's always three sides to every story, but if your side doesn't work for you....'nuff said. Look forward. The past is past, you both gave it ample opportunity to succeed. Good on you both for trying. Sorry to hear about Lexie. You gave her a good life on the farm, but in the end, if you can't trust a dog you have to do what you have to do. Having had four dogs in my life, I would have done the same..... and it would have killed me to do it. Prayers.
Positive thoughts and prayers for you both. You’ll get through this and push onward!!! Keep moving forward one step at a time and pretty soon you’ll get off the plateau and up the hill. Just Say’n 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇦
It's nice of you to add us in your personal life. I wouldn't but that's me. I like to say life is like riding a roller coaster it has up's and downs. Hang in there!
Josh some relationships just can’t work , even tho there’s lots of things you love about your spouse …but when it’s toxic and you can’t have peace in your heart that’s when it’s time to go separate ways. I was with my ex husband for 20 years , married for 14 also. Hardest thing I’ve also ever been through (divorce) but I’ve been single since 2010 and enjoy my life immensely and we are friends because we have 3 daughters. You made the right choice, time is your only friend to get through this .. like my momma always said “do what your heart tells you to do “. 💚
Thanks Josh, it means a lot to your subscribers.
Thank you so much for your support, this is closure. From now on, no more ridiculousness, move on, and enjoy life.
Prayers for you!@@StoneyRidgeFarmer
@StoneyRidgeFarmer good for you brother. Live your life on your your terms.
I've been married for 36 years, and we all have spats. When we married, it was for life, to death due us part! Get into a good church. find a good lady.
Just move on. Quit worrying about what other people say.
Those of us who are blessed with good marriages and relationships should be humbled by this man’s desire to have what many others take for granted.
As a combat veteran. These are the worst times. Church and spirituality Keeps you strong
I left this comment several times but most people don’t know what God and a church family can do when you surround yourself with spiritual support
Amen.
Amen from friendly Manitoba, Canada 🙏❤️🇨🇦
Divorced once to an unfaithful wife, widowed twice, I found my gal, and it is good, married 13 years now. Our faith in Jesus is an important glue to our relationship.

Heard these words earlier today: You have to give up your nightmare in order to find your dream.
well said
Wow!! Yes!!❤ Best analogy I've heard in a long time!!
Thank you so much for being responsible about what you did with your dog.
I've known my husband for 45 years, married for 20. We have to work together everyday to make it work.
Josh,you done the best you could do, now it’s time to move on to a new life.Good luck,you got this,and if miss Stony Ridge sees this bless you too and I pray nothing but the best for you both.
You’ve let her back about 10 times more than normal guys would. You gave it more of a fair chance
My condolences Josh. Farming and ranching is hard, some people aren't well suited to the life.
Wishing you, and both of you, all the best in the new season ahead! I can only trust and pray that great things are ahead.
Josh, I hope you find someone that loves the farm life and wants to be part of it. Someone that has your energy as well as your willingness to learn.
Josh, great Video from the Heart, thx for sharing your life with us.
I have been through the same thing with all the same struggles on the farm and with the wife and a few girlfriends after the wife. I still have the farm and two adult daughters that are here helping on the farm. Thank god for them. Good luck with the future

You gave it your best shot....several times. Maybe this is for the best. Prayers my Friend.
Hi Josh, Sorry that the Missus couldn't handle the life. Prayers UP and Blessed BE! STAY SAFE!
Thanks for your candor, Josh. So sorry for your troubles. I still live on my family farm. Farming is hard, relationships can be hard. Hard decisions have to be made, so you make them. You're doing good, keep it up.
Josh I appreciate you and all the information you put out here. One sided love is a rough situation. But just know I (hopefully everyone) is praying for you. You a very special person been watching for a long.

I’m so sorry to hear that Josh. We will be praying for you buddy, and we will miss seeing her too. She always added charm to your videos.
Sorry to hear brother Life is too short to live that way
Regardless of your situation, you gotta keep on keepin' on! I've been in a similar situation , loving relationship that started in high school and went on for 8 years.

Prayers Josh for a healthy and happy love life in the future.
My sympathies, Josh. This is a hard thing and you are approaching it well. I'll be praying for ya. :(
Wishing nothing but the best for you and the former Mrs Stoney. I really hoped you and her would make a go of it again. I enjoyed the videos where you both were together. But life teaches us strong lessons. It's bad about the dog but once they get a taste of blood some dogs go crazy. Best of luck in your new chapter, I hope you and Mrs. Stoney can find true happiness.
Been there! Three times! I learned slow. Totally a tragedy. Praying for all the families
Sorry to hear about what happened to your life. I wish you the best in the future. Love your videos.
You are a better man than I. I don't know that I would have spent 32 minutes explaining it to the world.
Right there with you sir , very similar situation for me last year. I’m a 100 times happier with all the nonsense over with. You’re a good man things will definitely work out for you !
Sending prayers bud keep your head up you will get through it
We've all watched your efforts and hers too. There's little doubt that you've both tried. Love can be hard to define. You WILL find someone to share your life style with. Sometimes you find THE ONE, when you're not looking for her.

Lexy
You are handling it better than anyone I’ve seen
Great video Josh
I feel your pain. Going through a similar situation myself
I'm sad to hear the news. I had real hopes for you two. Before you get into the next relationship, figure out what went wrong with this one, correct your part in it, and heal from that completely.

Dude, sorry for you both. There's always three sides to every story, but if your side doesn't work for you....'nuff said.
Look forward. The past is past, you both gave it ample opportunity to succeed. Good on you both for trying.
Sorry to hear about Lexie. You gave her a good life on the farm, but in the end, if you can't trust a dog you have to do what you have to do. Having had four dogs in my life, I would have done the same..... and it would have killed me to do it. Prayers.

It's nice of you to add us in your personal life. I wouldn't but that's me. I like to say life is like riding a roller coaster it has up's and downs. Hang in there!
Josh some relationships just can’t work , even tho there’s lots of things you love about your spouse …but when it’s toxic and you can’t have peace in your heart that’s when it’s time to go separate ways. I was with my ex husband for 20 years , married for 14 also. Hardest thing I’ve also ever been through (divorce) but I’ve been single since 2010 and enjoy my life immensely and we are friends because we have 3 daughters.
You made the right choice, time is your only friend to get through this .. like my momma always said “do what your heart tells you to do “. 💚
Keep on keeping on!
Josh, I am sorry for your pains.
