(((All))) thank you so much for your responses. It meant a lot to read them and I have been doing some thinking over the weekend.

Kat and Jeff, what you said about filing when I'm ready really helped me to see a bit more clearly. I put a lot of pressure on myself at times on things I 'should' be doing, I agree with T that once I am back from my travels things may be clearer. New Year and all that.

Kat, you are right also that I cannot be friends with him in the genuine sense. It would hold me back in my moving on process and especially when he has shown me such disrespect and continues to do so.

Jeff, your post too really made me think. I am definitely not interested in yobby h. It does make me wonder about him all along. There is this side to him and now it seems it is the dominant side, if that is how he is going then I have had a lucky escape. I have not responded to the text at all, because in fact, it warrants no response.

Cas, surfs up! I'm so excited about being in Sydney!

Nell, you could be right about it flushing him out. It's scary though as you know now smile

Lola, I have to say it does feel freeing.

Hi Trixi, I have followed your story. Thank you for making me feel a bit better about the two years. I am really struggling to understand why I am still doing this. I think I didn't realise how important marriage was to me until I lost it.
