Like you, I have done everything that I could have possibly done to save my M and make our M work. I guess it was just not meant to be. The end of my M is disappointing, but, there will eventually be someone better for me.
It is disappointing for me too. I still feel like a failure...hopefully, I will get over those feelings. We really did all that we could to save our marriages. At the end of the day, we have to hang our hat on that and trust God will help us with the rest.

Besides the fact that I was married to baseball, I never really dated before my W because I never meet someone that I saw a future with. So entering the dating scene will again be an interesting experience for me.
For me too, I never dated anyone but my H. One of my fears is the fine line between being too picky or not picky enough...I think that I need to date for awhile to see what is out there.

I just hope whomever it is for me can love me and my girls the way we deserve.
Honestly, you have given me a whole new perspective. One day, one of my friends and I were joking around and talking about making a list of the type of guy that I should date. She said the usuals...nice, intelligent, good-looking, etc. and then she said no kids. I told her that I would date someone with children, and you are actually the reason that I would. You are an amazing guy. I see that you have been through the same struggles as me and to top it off, you have had to be strong every day for your girls...I haven't had to worry about anyone but myself. You are a great guy and father and you will find someone that loves you and your girls...don't settle for less.
