Count me in at the golf tourney. Only thing is...I can't play golf. I can whack a few at the driving range and THAT ALONE is reason enough for you guys to invite me. I'll keep you laughing on the floor. Substitute a lacrosse ball and stick...and I'll hold my ground.
Mules...your sitch is CLEAR EVIDENCE that divorce is NOT FAILURE. Clear as a bright sunny day. It is this that makes me get angry here sometimes.....that people don't have the strength sometimes to pull out a huge pair of cajones and just say 'think you tried hard enough, time to call it quits'. Clearly..you can see people staying here forever, holding onto people who cheat on them...abuse them...treat them as whale poop....verbally abuse them....throw away their kids....for...what?
What happened here is a fine example of how to handle a failing M....you try...you risk...you listen..maybe don't believe...give it a shot....feel more pain...see destruction..and then say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! Who told our community here to keep people lingering in pain for years? to act like a wuss? to let a spouse continually cross borders? to keep one's mouth closed while being abused emotionally or even physically?
Why?
Why do we do it here? Even the big M's books doesn't say that.
Anyway....you handled this as best as anyone could. I hope we can get together with our kids...especially if you make your way out here onto the Island. If you really want to have a laugh...asked Coach and PDT to hold the the little flag in the cup while I tee off at them. Now THAT will keep you in stitches. FORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
