Well, had what we hope is the final meeting on negotiations, although we still need to agree on the final CS amount (it's within a few hundred a month). So in theory, we just need to go through the final review and then have the signature meeting and I'll be D. This sucks.
You know, she tells me we are the best at making decisions together. Well, for the first decision she's making by herself, I have to say she is pretty bad at going it alone.
So, the next few months will be tough. Moving out of my house, renting (never thought I'd ever do that again), buying a much smaller place to live, getting the kid schedule running, and seeing how my finances work out. This just sucks!!!
It will be nice to be able to do whatever I want without having to ask for permission (or pay for it) later. And I will be much more discerning in selecting my next spouse. Family mental health issues: sorry. Unable to fight fairly: see ya. Unable to forgive: later. Has blackout drinking episodes: ta ta. Lack of empathy: Next. Paranoid: Gone.
There are things I won't miss.
I am looking at the book by that guy from eHarmony, which looks like it will help. But I'm too raw to take it seriously yet. Maybe in a few months.
