To Jeff....I understand how you feel about ending your thread. I think that, if being here causes you one minute of feeling down by, what my IC labels 'cues', then it's time to wind down.
I know I will when I reach that point. Who'da thought that I would be here almost three years post-bomb (mine in 5/06). DonH once posted on my thread, "be patient as this is going to take a long time." Man was HE right. I miss his posts.
This is your year Jeff. You are NOT a failure. You WILL BE if you lose everything you've learned here and don't apply it to your next R. So...I, in a positive way, I DO DISAGREE with you...after all this time...you one statement that 'we DID fail'.
No we didn't Jeff.
No we didn't.
Kudos on 'passing' one of those 'tests' we hear about.
Finally, to TNP...I understand where you are. Afterawhile, you see the light....you recognize that the 'emperor has no clothes'...and you understand that when you've fought the good fight, divorce is more a rebirth than a death. Stay strong.
Strength, and honor Jeff.
