    That was a short separation...but when you know, you know.

    I hope it's quick and painless. :)


    It was a short separation...but I think we both let go a long time ago. if FEELS right...I haven't felt this sure of something in a while...


    like a huge weight off your shoulders, I'm sure.

    I understand the part about letting go a long time ago. I felt exactly the same.

    soooooooo the decision has been made....now we get to do the fun stuff...anyone know a free laywer???
    Hey there girl.. Aka.. Tasty ****! ;)

    You know I'm here for you at all times...any time of day!

    Welcome to the dicvorcee club :(... It's not as bad as it seems. I'm finally coming to terms with it. The word itself is the worst part. Good luck and remember we're all here when you need an ear.

    Hope everything goes well for you, always seemed like separation was more like delaying the inevitable. My wife said it doesn't cost too much if there isn't much contest. If there is no kids, it makes it much easier. Sorry to hear, but it sounds like you are OK with it. From what I gather, you are a good looking, fun loving type of person....you'll have pick of the litter;)
    If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

    Thank you :-) the "litter" is a strange thought right now!!! i mean, dating is a little scary anyway, let alone when it's been as long as it's been for me.

    Yeah--as soon as I moved out, we both knew that it was inevitable. Fortunately we have no kids, we don't own a home, etc, so in theory it should be fairly easy. It's still weird and will be interesting to see how the next few months pan out, but I feel strong and think I'm ready

    What sucks right now for me, is that [he] is the one who asked for a divorce 3 times, and I've wanted one since the first year we were married. I thought when we first got married he just needed to grow up, but needless to say that didn't happen and NEVER will.

    The problem I'm having now, is that he WON'T go to the courthouse and sign the divorce papers, :( which pretty much sucks for me. He is now saying that I'm trying to screw him somehow. I can't afford a lawyer or a mediator, and I just don't know what to do...

    I'm so unhappy... :cry: If anyone has any good advice, I would truly appreciate it...

    Wish you were here...

    Find a way to afford a lawyer. Hell, sell your wedding ring and anything else he ever gave you. Don't be passive about this.

    I agree...someone you know who understands the situation should be able to either help you out or point you in the right direction...it's not fair for him to drag his feet and make you miserable. I hope you can find a wa to get out and move on :|

    This is all about his control he has over me. That he has had for years... I'm stuck up in another state, where I don't have any family or friends, and even if I did live near my family, they couldn't help me out in any way... I'm so damn depressed & mad... :cry:

    Soulsinging, huh? I'll have to drop him a PM...

    I'm glad things are looking up for you--and that you've decided not to play games...just doesn't seem worth it in the end, you know?

    HSB--just sent you a PM....

    it wasn't even a consideration to mess with the closing of her house... just a bit of sweet justice that I have all the power at the moment :lol:..I guess you could say I AM playing games...I told her I wasn't going to my lawyer twice, that I wanted a new divorce agreement to sign at the same time...game? maybe, but I want to get this done NOW, before she becomes a homeowner. it's been long enough.

    Today, for the first time in a loooong time, I felt a twinge of jealousy :( She bought a house just down the road from the house I grew up in...was talking to my daughter about her mom's new house, and it dawned on me that the kids will be growing up in MY old 'hood, strolling as a family down my old street n whatnot...between that, and having to comfort my girl thru another bout of tears over 'not wanting two houses anymore', I was a bit bummed :( ...But I guess it's kinda cool that the kids will be going to the same schools I did...I'll still get to see them there :)


    Lizard - was told it was creepy just the other day :D...I was worried some people would recognize the nazi overtones, but not where the image is from...
    (the avatar itself is stolen from a random site, I can't take credit for the gif).

    PJ24 - ouch! that's fresh..best of luck to ya...

    Thanks for the kind words. It's been a tough couple of months. Last weekend was so rough I ended up in the hospital Tuesday morning. I know it'll get easier and I just have to take it day by day.

  • I'm finally ready to admit it's over.

    It'll be a long waiting process, though. We both have moved to different states and have to wait for residency. I think the soonest we can file is October.

    Doesn't really matter, I'm not talking to him anyway and we are living completely separate lives.

    No kids, thank goodness, but I'm gonna miss my doggies.

    I wish all the best to everyone else going through this.
