I think that you have absolutely earned your way out of your marriage by conquering your dependency issues. You get a perfect score of 100 on your exit exam/essay because you did all your homework and you didn't cheat (by finding a little friend to help you with your issues). I'm sure you will find that you will continue to be MUCH happier with your life in the future.

However, because I have great respect for you, I would like to offer an extra credit challenge. Instead of presenting MsHD with the kind letter you outlined (although I agree it's all that she deserves)why not present her with one that would be more helpful because more honest. Such as:

Quote:
Dear MsHD,
I am about 101% sure I'm about 5 years overdue to leave this marriage and get me some really hot action and fun times with some women who are more attractive than you for reasons A,B and C. However, if you are willing to challenge yourself to improve in these areas within the next 6 mos. I will consider staying in the marriage and treating you to a great deal more hot,lusty and affectionate manhandling then you've ever had the good fortune to encounter. Let me know your decision by Friday.

Love,

HD
