My current situation: Me- 49 It- 46 D- 18 S- 16 S- 10 Married- 21 years 4/26/07 Together- Since 9/79 Met- Ball State Univ. Bomb- 7/15/05 6:00 am
What is it with a parent that can't see, or doesn't want to admit that what they are doing will be detrimental to the children? How can someone you thought you knew do something like this? She even said it the day the bomb was dropped. She was tired of putting everyone ahead of her own wants and desires. It was time she put herself first. WTF? She should have thought of that before the children came along. One thing I left out of the earlier posting was that since the D started I have loss my relationship with my D-18. She has decided that her mom is doing the right thing and won't even come over to visit me. On the other hand, S-16 decided he was moving in with me (7/06) and rarely sees his mom. This whole process has polarized our family. And stuck in the middle is S-10 who moves back and forth and lives out of a suitcase. What a mess. There are some good things that I am able to do since the divorce. When we were together I was rarely able to go golfing because, in her words, I should be home helping with the children. Now, I go golfing three to four times a week. I am actually getting my game back together. She used to get mad at me when I went golfing with clients during business hours! I sure do love to go golfing, but I would give it back up to put the family back together.
I wish you well with your situation, and thanks again for the words of encouragement.
