I TOTALLY believe karma will come back to bite them in the a$$....
but WHEN?? lol Honestly I dont care about ex time share - i guess I must ponder if hes had it for a few years and has gone quite a bit why he only invited Ry one time, its not like its a romantic getaway, he and OW go w/ a bunch of people. Whatever, like my mom said today, well Karen he decided to start his life a new and different, and truth be known his lifestyle is not one I would be interested in partaking in anyway.

Thanks I do think B is a keeper too, Was emailing w/ my GF last week, subject being fathers of our children as a few of us are D, and I just happen to say that I wish B was Rys dad. One of my BF wrote me and said reading that made her feel sad, she was one of my bridesmaids and have known her for 35 yrs, She totally understood what I meant as she despises my ex lol but she said it made her sad non the less. I guess it is kinda sad, but I know that Ry dosnt wish B was his dad lol He likes him but his dad is who he loves.
You guys know tho dont you? Its not what we wanted for our kids-but like the discussion on another thread, it dosnt mean our kids are not going to become wonderful adults ( or even older adults!) and go on to have productive, lives. Its just well it wasnt our "ideal" for them, but we all deal

Hahhaah ya thats me! Actually I get spousal support not child support, I wish! lol
Yes I am proud of B's D, shes the sweetest thing. She works hard, shes an ICU nurse at a busy hospital, and has stuck w/ this guy for a few years always giving him another chance! Well I think this last time stopped her in her tracks. She could of shrugged it off, after all the place is booked invites bought, dress bought, We had all booked our hotel rooms up north. She was embarrassed and ashamed and B told her SHE had nothing to be ashamed about!
We never stop worrying about our kids do we??
Hey Figggg , Must come see how your moving plans are comin along how exciting!!

only thing is, not sure about your case, my ex was great as a bf! its when we got married I think he knew he could push the envelope more, staying out all night, partying w/ God knows who! and when Ry came along oh brother, I bet he thought he had me trapped, even tho i had a good job, he knows I wouldnt leave when Ry was young.
B's D knows that chances of it getting better not worse are slim. Hard to turn off the emotions overnight thought, that will take her a bit longer. As we all know!

I join the ranks of those praising B's d for her decision. Heck, she has soooo much life ahead of her, this hurt will pass adn she'll be on cloud 9 if she can find someone who is even slightly like her dad, right?
As for the financial hiccups, "this too shall pass."

It hurts as well as "sucks." You know my outlook is to focus on what IS good, what blessings we DO have and to try to make the best of the current situation. SO many people have experienced garbage in their lives and have overcome those challenges and even terrible situations to lead rich, rewading lives.
We on the board are doing the best we can and many, in spite of the hurt they have experienced, are pretty content with their lives. Especially if they don't romanticize the past.
Just today I spoke with a potential customer who frustrated the heck out of me to no end. She was argumentative, continuously interrupting me as I tried to answer her questions and proved to be a real difficult person to have a conversation with. After she rudely said, "thank you, anyway" and hung up, I recalled this feeling of frustration that I so frequently had with my wife. It was a moment to remind myself of how relieved I am to no longer being married to my X.
If you want, Karen, you can be "Georgette Baily" because, indeed, It is a wonderful life!

Everything will work out as it always seems to. This is just a minor hiccup.
When something goes wrong in our lives we always tend to fantasize about this wonderful life our ex's are off living. The reality is that K walked away from a life, a wife, a child, a family that loved him, and a home. He now is a middle aged man with a 2 week time share, a mustang convertable, and someone else's child. If we weigh all of the pros and cons here, no question who I'd rather be!
Sooo ya got my email eh Bethie? LOL yea total pity party today, not for ex life just frustrated! grrr
You guys make so much sense! C2, you are so right and B just reminded me on the phone, I have my home, my family close by and great friends, that alone is enough to make me happy, just needed to be reminded to COUNT MY BLESSINGS, geeze I have that plaque in my room its old and yellowed , use to be my grandmas' she always would say this, and I need to remember it!
Kick me anytime I dont! Thanks guys! XX
