Thanks B,

I'm not going to go off on her. That's exactly what she wants.

I'm following your advice. The more distance, the better.

The further along I get, the more I learn about myself. I have no desire to have any type of a relationship with someone like her.

I will always have to keep myself in check when it comes to dealing with her as far as the kids are concerned. I will never go back to the old me.

Although I'm not out looking for it. I figure it will happen when it's supposed to. I am so looking forward to the day that I finally cross paths with someone special. I'm actually thankful this has happened and for all it has taught me.


Don't stand still.

T,

Good for you!

I don't mind learning the lessons, but next time I think I'll pay more attention before I get my head slammed in the door smirk

HUGS

"I am my child's advocate"

Repeat it ~ it's your mantra.

It's not about the crazy stuff she's done in the past anymore. It's current day. It's making sure your kids are #1, and if they are in an unsafe environment, it's speaking up. It's about the kids. And you will find yourself along the way. And your kids won't realize it but they will appreciate it. You're a good dad. The other stuff will fall into place eventually (or so I've been told LOL)

Thanks Grace!

I hear ya on that one. From what I've seen so far though, I'm not too worried about this ever happening again.

Right on, but as of today, she is still trying to keep me around and have the best of both worlds. When she doesn't get her way, crazy comes a knocking. I'm no longer home. smile

I want so much more now. Looking back, even when times were "good", there was still so much missing from our relationship from both sides. If she is ok living her life this way that's perfectly fine. I'm not ....

Sweetie, you are on the next step in this journey. I have mentioned on my thread a kind of awakening. And in that has come some tough realizations about my h and my marraige.

So, be prepared that some of the truths you discover might throw you. But then, when you find your footing - a real peace comes over you. And then a final acceptance.

You have done great throughout this T. You have stayed true to yourself and you continue to be an amazing father.

Actually.....I've been there for a while B. : )

However with love comes acceptance and I was still willing to honor my commitment and try to build things for the better.

Yep. Sounds like a good place! I know exactly what you mean about going straight back to crazy when she doesn't get what she wants. Mine does the same thing.

Maybe she's a fan of Hannah Montana? grin

Or maybe (just maybe) I am a dork.....

Or both!
